...Hi Sol. I think it was supposed to say: tongs. <br /><br />Yes grief floors you and it's true that when somebody dies a piece of you dies with them. <br /><br />Any way I have got back on the writing horse. The book I am writing is very zany and I have based it on some of the farmer's I have met on my travels. I am just starting to re-write the second draft of the manuscript. Don't think I have put in enough description yet. Perhaps North and South will give me some ideas on that?<br /><br />Pop over to Sol's blog reader's if you want to join her online book club. I have.

Suppose you could make small individual pies for people who don't like a lot of potatoes. We found the baked beans made it sweeter and different. Perhaps we could spice it up a bit more too.northsider https://www.blogger.com/profile/00716743611909673869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-67079113338836675292016-10-30T19:29:58.538-06:002016-10-30T19:29:58.538-06:00My stepdad is British and he makes the BEST Shephe...My stepdad is British and he makes the BEST Shepherd's Pie.

I hate when people call it shepherds pie and it's not! <br />My ambition is to write a book one day but I have a few things to do first! a smallholders book would be great though. You can always do yours as an ebook now, that's getting easier to do.

I am glad you have started working on your book again. Grief is a strange thing that manifests in the deepest recesses and bobs to the surface now and again. Be kind to yourself. One step, one step. <br /><br />Why dont you put a few of your pages on here and give us a taste of it? And also any publishers out there may see it and think, yep this one needs to be in print!Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10518631542782309728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-65699334704483291732016-10-30T13:38:26.219-06:002016-10-30T13:38:26.219-06:00Your photo is a cracker.

United had 37 shots on goal but the ball wouldn't go in the back of the net. Not forgetting two magnificent by the two ex United players. United traditionally start slow and I think they will be up there challenging after Christmas. Along with City, The Arsenal (your team), Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool. Klopp looks to be doing a great job and he likes heavy rock music. Think United will win a cup or two this season and next year they will challenge for the league. Mourinho is rebuilding and I think a few new defenders will be signed in January.<br /><br />I am sure Sir Alex in the stands must put pressure for the manager and team to perform. Even he took a few years before the title came back to Old Trafford.

I wonder if it is time for Ferguson to stop glaring down from the stands. I am beginning to think his presence may be a curse on the side. Mad maybe but I am quite superstiticiosRachel Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053924416805878169noreply@blogger.com
