D-DAY Sitting here with butterflys in my tum! So much to do, tidy up house for MFC friends (not for gitb, she's seen it much worse, so will look tidy to her ). Made b**ping lasagne! (Oh I hope it turns out ok!) Learn in the next 2 hours how to 1) Read a clothes pattern 2) Thread a needle 3) Sew Ah, well, if nothing, I'm sure Mika will admire our determination and dedication! Will keep you posted on how things progress!

My mum is on stand by for any emergency phone calls re advice on project Tartan Trousers! Kath, the lasagne will go ahead as planned, I've bought all the stuff! Chris just phoned, they are on the ferry over to Mull as we speak! Bye happy family, have fun:biggrin2:

Just been speaking to my mum, she has worked as a seamstress in her dim and distant past, although she's never made mens trousers. She strongly recommended getting an old pair of mens trousers and taking them apart. She said that patterns (if you haven't used one before), can be very confusing. GITB, does stephen have an old pair we could cut up??? Chris, being only 5 7, does not have any that would fit the bill! One bit of bad news! Chris has just driven off with the kids to go camping for 2 nights! WOOO HOOO. Which means, I have to make the lasagne! Sorry, it was just too perfect, something had to give!

Defo defo defo!

Excellent idea Wendi! GITB, I would not be able to keep a straight face if Stephen does the modelling for us! He might not appreciate that! This is all gonna be fun fun fun!

Take a deep breath in, good, now blow it all away! Kath if they fantastic, who cares, we have put such time, dedication, blood, sweat and tears, that they will be fantastic in their own way! If he doesn't appreciate them, well, ................. Really looking forward to it too! Will be fun fun fun! To Abby, What's wrong with chick peas! They are yummy! Can leave them out of hers!

Hey Kath, wraps are easy and fine for me to do! Would Abby eat them? Yes GITB like Pinot Grigio, and Wendi is not staying over!

Well the big day is this coming Sunday, so we will post updates with our progress! Hee Hee! Off to college now! Byeeeeeeeeeee:thumb_yello:

It's OK, I'm a first aider, *puts XlaurenX into recovery position*

Well this is for sure, blood (from needles), sweat (from hard work) and tears (from laughter not sadness), will have gone into them! I'm sure he will LOVE them!

I drink both red and white, quite partial to Pinot Grigio at the moment (italian white) mmmmmmmm! I can do tortilla wraps! My favs are tuna mayo with chick peas, very yummy! I could do them???

Oh WOW Blue, that's brilliant! Thanks for that! (no need to sneak in and out!) All are welcome here!

HEE HEE, was only messing with ya, I did realise you didn't want to mate with them!

*back quietly out of thread, rounds up all rabbits and warns them off crazy aussie girl trying to mate with them* :roftl:

*makes note to tape haggis mating call for Rainbow!*

Doh!

What's an MSG *asks a puzzled oldling?*

No, not even underground! Punishable by be-heading! No way would I risk a race on one! But yeh, me and GITB often go out on them, (if we can catch the buggers!) We have special haggis whistles which copies their mating sound. They aren't very bright and always come running!

Mmmm, not really like Chinese or Western Astrology. It's more to do with which part of the country your clan were from and your surname. It's Anderson (also MacAndrew) Branches = Anderson of Candacraig (Strathdon) Anderson of Dowhill, Anderson of Wester Ardbreck. So, er, can't help with any further interpretation! But hey, you just Stand Sure for your clan!

We used to but there were all these PC people who thought it was cruel and got up petitions. There were demonstrations, riots, quite a few arrests, and eventually the Scottish Parliament banned it. You can still go haggis back riding, but defo not as a race!

Jings, just noticed you are bar manager in Freddie's Bar! Who did you replace? Never really in the bar, hard enough to keep with the Glasgow, tartan, Aussie and Oldlings!

Only haggis, when we are not out riding them (er, if you pardon the expression!)

Hiya Kath, I have told Chris I am out of action on Sunday so come whenever. (I go to mass, but that's all over and i'm home by 11am). Re food, had been thinking I would get Chris to make a lasagne (just realised Wendi don't do meat), but I could ask him to make a nice veggie one, with Baked taties and salad???? Would that be good? If you are here for lunch time, I'll just do sandwiches or something! Opinions are welcome!

Rainbow, you totally crack me up! Would love a night out in your company!

Ewan, Tartan, *faints*
