Is anyone alse watching The Block this season.

My MIL was saying yesterday that the Hotel they are doing up this year was where she stayed last year when her son had his heart transplant................I thought it must have been an old unused building................but apparently now.

Back after room reveal....................................maybe......

hubby's family are still at war with anyone named Campbell

Flashie, we had a piano too. It is only recently I asked my older sister where on earth it came from because I don't think we ever had enough cash left over from savings to buy one. We decided it must have been left to us by a relative as there were some stories of a wealthy relative dying when I was very young.

We also gathered around it as often as possible and we girls would practice and present dance concerts. We did the Can Can at first but were encouraged to think of other dances to perform.  My mother later told me when I was a lot older that she stopped us doing the Can Can when she learned that the dancers in the Moulin Rouge didn't wear undies and she was shocked LOL LOL

Flashie. Haven't even watched this round... I've seen the adds and I was wondering where it is..  As it looked familiar

The  Can-can Prim?  

LOL

i love that you girls  did that..  And what your mum said... Lol

I can well believe it. The Irish are pretty good at blood feuds too. When we were planning a trip to Ireland we looked at staying one night in a castle that had once belonged to O'connor Sligo - who went over to the English side during the 16th Century. When I mentioned it to an Irish friend - an O'donnell - he scowled and said "O"Connor Sligo: now there's a man should have been drowned at birth."

I can't  remember what the Campbell's did to upset them All I can remember is that his family were pipers

his older sis was here last week for an appointment at our local hospital.... Before she went in she said to us, can't believe I'm putting my  life in the  hands of a Campbell ( doctor's name) lol

Good afternoon Stringers 

With my full dance card today I come in here and there you are Prim - talking about dancing lol

.....and pianos!

My full dance card only brought me sore feet 

We had a pianola and lots and lots of rolls.  Someone (no name no pack drill) got to a couple and tried to put a couple of extra notes on them with a pin   It didn't work lol

When we got tired of practicing scales and trying Fur Elise yet again though, we could always get out another roll though. Used to love our sing songs around them - happy days.

Deb - love, love, love your chiffonier  

Hi Laney, we had a neighbor who used to play for me Teddy bears picnic  when I was 3 Or 4 and  I thought that lady was just the best still remember it. Lol

Oh thanks Laney, I like the chiffonaire too. Plus it was cheap... 5 years ago it would've cost a small fortune
