Hi Rach long time hun. Sorry I haven’t been around. Beef dripping, I remember them days my mum used it quite a lot. I never ate it was never keen. Hope you are doing well. Xxx

Pork dripping is the soft one.. I have sum in the fridge.... You are not a fan because it's pork dripping folk eat on bread.. as i do x

My mum always saved the fat from roast meat in a pudding basin, and she would use it to baste the next roast. I always thought the dripping was the bit right at the bottom of the bowl though, where the meat juices would settle. I never knew anyone eat just the fat.

I couldn't tell you the last time I had bread and dripping. Around 45 years ago probably. It was a favourite in our house and was indeed kept in a pudding basin. I think we used to take it out of the fridge to sit for a while prior to spreading it, so it wasn't so hard. We always put salt and pepper on it but never marmite. I think the eating of animal fats has become taboo these days - despite it didn't seem to do us much harm back in the day - when nothing was wasted. I also well recall my mother buying suet at the butchers - to make dumplings for our beef stew. Not only did they taste great but they made the meat go further. Thanks for uploading this one and evoking lovely memories from the past - of bread, dripping and dumplings. There's no place like home ♥.... ps my brother loved sugar sandwiches 😃

Very well done on the record and for raising the money. I am full of admiration as I have never been good at any type of sport involving connecting a bat with a ball - the eye/hand/ball coordination is not one of my gifts !!

Doing the rally in the pub sounds like a hoot ! I think just the thought that I couldn't stop for a wee or a poop would immediately make me want to go. Sorry for your loss of your granddaughter ♥

Wooo new world record 🙌🏓

😂😂😂

Well done them

is chairman dan's dad?

Amazing achievement. Hope you've all had an awesome day. 😊❤❤❤😊

Poor man’s soup 😂😂😂

My son was a very poor sleeper and also a light sleeper as a young baby. That changed as the years rolled round. Your wardrobe looks a bit like mine - it was heartening to see I am not the only one that needs a clear out and tidy up ! Never iron these days 😃. The Guinness Book of Records used to be a popular annual present under the Christmas tree for some. Including one relative who at family gatherings used it to test us kids on what we knew about records. For some reason he thought that was an indication of how we were going at school. I expect it has gone digital now.

I was so relieved the pickled cabbage and tinned fruit didn't make it in. Once that welcome news emerged I was able to un-wince my eyes. I noted the cup of tea (maybe coffee) served alongside - as per previous video 😃.

When I still lived with my parents and younger brother - many years' ago, we always had tea with our tea. And tea with our dinner because we had our dinner around midday or between midday and 1pm. And we had our tea around 6pm. And every kid's mother yelled down the street 'come in fer yer tea'. I don't remember when dinner became lunch and tea became dinner. I think Friday's cuppa tea with tea always went down the best because it was fish and chip night - which somehow has a particular affinity with tea, in my opinion. We never had coffee in our house.

Just catching up here. I like soup but I don't like too much of a mixture so don't know how my stomach might go with this 'chuck it all in' approach. I certainly could not put pickled onions in - even though I like them. I don't doubt it might taste alright but my mind could not cope 😃. Perhaps I am not quite poor enough - but getting there given prices keep escalating.

Hi Rach malted milk biscuits are ok if you dunk them in your tea or coffee, ❤❤

😂😂😂

Looks like a rip roaring success. Millionaires Soup - it's a keeper. Fruit cocktail and evaporated milk for Pete's dessert tonight ?!

Hi Rach thank you for sharing this. Now I know what to do with my left over veg! 😅 looks nice! 😊 xx

Are you sure - fruit in the soup ? There's a reason it's not sold in the Supermarkets ! Make sure you taste it,before anyone else ! Good luck with it.

Hi Rach, Love those iced buns even better with jam,l will have to look out for them. I used to buy the white ones.When you go out your back garden you can wave to me 😅.The vicar of your church was murdered St.Mary the Virgin it was,12 years ago but made big news as the bloke had already murdered a pensioner.John Suddards was the vicar.I will be watching the poor man's soup sounds good,Have a lovely week X

Hi Rach ❤ I don’t think you’re weird at all. We eat around 6 pm. I don’t like eating too late myself unless it’s a weekend 😅 what’s poor man’s soup? Is that for someone that’s on a budget? Looking well hun. Great to see you and hope everything is ok with you. Xxx

Lol no thanks. ❤

Just get some grass in, sorted x

Your Waffley videos are my favourites. I hope that soup tastes better than it looks ! I'd suggest adding some red lentils to thicken it up. Looking forward to your Nigella video,not just a pic !!

Masterpiece

Lol my dog either loves or hates our cat 😅 cat will only stand so much before she gives the dog smack round her face 😊 He's a lovely dog I bet he's strong though ❤

Aww bless Wilson! Love him! ❤ xx

I visited chatty June - she is indeed a hoot. And she freezes celery - I wonder why I have got this far in life without ever freezing celery. I am going to try it - Chatty says it is good in stews and such. Children grow up so fast. I used to do a lot of entertaining; not so much now. Did you ever have a hostess trolley I wonder; so popular in the 80s. So naff it now seems. I have still got mine ! A Phillips - in rosewood ! I only have to look at it and I laugh - memories of Victoria Wood (RIP) and her song - 'bend me over backwards on me hostess trolley'. Rude I know, but funny all the same. And Sindy had one - so it must have been the height of chic once.

Lovely boy. My beloved little furbag was the same if he saw a cat in the garden - much smaller than Wilson, his hearty bark would lift him off all four paws at once 😃. That said, my son's two large cats certainly put him in his place when they came to be minded during holidays.

Lovely Rachel - thank you. Made me cry again for my beautiful boy who left 2 years ago - sadly missed every day. Reminded me that I am not alone in my grief. I know he will come to get me when it is my time - I have read that many people see their beloved pets just prior to passing. And their loved ones. This has indeed occurred with my elderly relatives who passed. My mum said her father was there. My aunt had her sisters with her. I wonder what others think. Blessings on all those who grieve. On a happier note - sun is shining and birds chirping in my garden - A reminder to live in the day - our time on earth is a short one.

Thanks Rachel, That was a sad but beautiful letter!! Two years ago I lost my Golden Retriever and my Corgi 4 months apart. They were both old and had had good lives but it doesn't make it any easier. Now have a year and a half old Corgi who is full of it!!! Still think of the other 2 often. We just have to enjoy the moment with our beloved pals!!! Mary

It’s working now! Not sure what happened there! Sorry about that hun. Xxx

Hi Rach ❤hope you’re ok? I can’t seem to add a like to your video. It says I do not have permission from the caller. Doesn’t make sense! Xx

She/He's Completely Cute & Absolutely Amazingly Adorable Thank You Immensely For Sharing Rach God Bless You&Yours 🤗😻🤗

Late to this one, as I often am - but never to late to see that lovely doggie's face❤.

Lovely to see Wilson so happy with his ball - beautiful boy. I recently had the 2 year anniversary of losing my beloved little dog. Still find it difficult to walk the favourite places we used to walk together. Need to toughen up I suppose - I was so blessed to have the happy days of his company over many years. Looks like you live in a beautiful area of England, with open spaces to enjoy.

I love a bargain, but prefer Facebook Marketplace these days; although have a few favourite sellers on eBay. Good news re that little rascal Wilson. Made my heart happy. The small artwork of the London bus caught my eye as I love anything like that, hope it's not rude to be looking around. Is it a particular artist you collect? Sorry I can't offer any advice re the AI - I am hopeless with anything like that; can only use the basics on my own iPhone !!! Sending good wishes across the miles.

Hi Rach, l think a lot of stuff on ebay people buy and sell for higher prices.l wanted to order a bleach for my hair someone was charging 24 pounds it usually cost 8 !!! .Couldnt believe it l messaged him and asked what his game was he replied thats the usual price.Anyway E bay made him reduce his price.That was awful about Geoff Kitchen from Thornbury he was the passenger who died when they had turbulence on way to Singapore it was going to be a dream holiday.Thunder on way here its gone really dark.! Spoke to soon its just started.Hope you are ok.xx

Your song is back😘

Hi Rach glad you got sorted ❤

Hi Rachel. I'm glad it's sorted . Looking lovely as ever, sis xx

Pleased to see you got back on the horse!Your mental health is important too.

Hi Rach, so pleased you have got things sorted, you seem much happier today.A shorter lead does help, you seemed so worried in the last video.Alls well that ends well.Love tbe colour of your hair it really suits you ,mine needs doing my hair was jet black earlier days,but have had it blonde for years covers the Grey.No sun here today very overcast.Enjoy the rest of the day.xx

Giving up on such a young dog is unfair to him. Dogs need exercise they need to go on walks a garden is not enough. I had a dog I rescued at 7yrs old he'd been roaming and feeding himself I guess on squirrels judging by his reaction to them. On my first walk with him he lunged the lead caught on my knuckle and broke it. It took 18 months of patience and persistent positive reward based training to get him to ignore squirrels, ducks and cats whether he was on lead or off lead. It can be done.

Love bananas, don't like banana sandwiches, hate jam of any kind. No way I could eat a jam sandwich. However, I love banana spread (must be spread) on toast with a sprinkling of salt.

I had to have my beloved Maltese x Poodle put to sleep a couple of years ago - very elderly and had an untreatable cancer. Don't think I have fully recovered even now, I miss him so much. When we were out walking in the forest near my house we used to see a lovely chocolate Labrador dragging his owner for a walk. Exactly what you said - dragging him through hedges forwards and completely unmanageable. Owner a middle aged, strong looking man so dog did not actually break free but it was a fight to control him. They went to dog training classes and it really helped. Last time I saw them he had really calmed down, like a different dog.

Oh, poor Wilson, I love him❤ Poor little soul looking out of the window. Hopefully, you will find a good local trainer for you both. Good Luck😊
