Get someone else to sniff it. I think it will be fine.

Almost certainly OK if the fridge is 5C or lower.

The ham is lovely and I will zap it so it's lovely and warm (might go mad and have two).

Not much left, everyone has had two meals out of it, rolls and I have had loads of sandwiches (it's my fav). Think I will have some tonight and the tiny bit that is left can go with the bins in the morning.

Sarnies are delicious! Not enough left to do anything much with(I cherry picked the best bits) and omelettes not on this week's menu (all meals planned and food bought to last till Sunday).

I never soak my ham. I loosely wrap it in foil and put it in a big roasting tin surrounded by boiling water (which I check every now and then and top up). When it's done, I take the skin off, criss-cross the fat and cover liberally in a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon and put back in the oven (on high) for 25 - 30 minutes.
