On Sunday afternoon, whilst hubs took a nap, I tried to catch up on my favourite blogs. All of a sudden I was wondering what I have posted the previous year and the year before on that specific date.

I came to realize that my blog changed quite a lot. I the beginning years of my blog I used to post some jokes and other funnies. I also posted pics of my table settings quite often – can anyone still remembers that?

      Pity I missed this – it lends itself to my outrageous brand of answers …
      A year ago I did a Fodder’s Day report on the glugging and guzzling we had done, in Really Awful Rhyme.
