The Place

Hertfordshire Fire Brigade can now relax,no more callouts to Ali's burnt offerings! She has now become a nightmare for the Lincolnshire Brigade She assures me that she fried herself an egg this morning and she managed not to burn it!! and saying she thinks it's because she's cooking on gas

Be happy in your new home Ali

Oh, Ali, my dear, it is very possible to burn using gas....so you may still be able to enjoy admiring the lovely Lincolnshire firefighting imps!

Hope you are very happy in your new home. x

Ey ooop peeps, I am enjoying my new home thank you

I cooked a mean chilli tonight, Daph

And Helen's right, I can burn cooking with gas . . . I forgot to put water in the steamer . . . wondered what the heck was burning Added some water as soon as I realised and the steam emitted turned the cauliflower a delumtious shade of brown . . . burnt cauliflower is not a good taste

No firemen?

Early days yet Helen, I've checked how long it will take the fire brigade to reach the house though it's 1.3 miles away and will take 5 minutes by car,7minutes by bicycle and it's a 24 minute walk!
I think Ali's avoiding any food burning until she's found the box with the mugs in,so she can make a cuppa for all the firefighters

I did google for the fire station location before I moved in . . . I ought to double check it still exists

unmanned station...but they are very quick getting to the station good idea if you go along and introduce yourself on a practice night they'll be pleased to meet a ....prospective customer

sorry for the delayed response, Daph . . . was trying to think of a witty retort . . . I will sleep on it x

My local Fire Station is over the wall from my house.....however, I might have to move soon, as they're building a new Fire station a mile away... Thursday evenings will never be the same...#thursdaynightistrainingnight

Ah!Ah! Is that why there's a ladder against your garden wall then Helen? Now I know how you are so good at Pole Dancing.....practicing on a Thursday evening

We need photos of Thursday's training, Helen

pole dancing's meant to be very good exercise Daph . . . will pop along to the fire station to introduce myself as a great potential customer and ask if I can practice on their pole

Oh, dear, you are a forward girl! I've lived over the wall from the Fire Station for about 9 years now, but I've never asked if I can practice on their pole

Won't you have to introduce yourself to all of them and see if there's a particular firemans pole you want to practice on?

......in that case, Helen & I had better come along with you Ali
