How do you make yours? Haven’t made one for a number of years but just fancied one and happen to have all the ingredients in so that’s our evening meal sorted. Suggestions I’ve found for tasty...
I’ve been a critic of her outfits in the past but I think today was the worst yet, she almost looked like she was in fancy dress. In my opinion she’d have been better in some sort of nice coat or...
I made another all bran cake today, minus the nuts. And pretty much minus the all bran. Instead of all bran in our click and collect, I got bran flakes but didn’t realise until I started making the...
I’ve given up with it, can’t be bothered in this heat, good job it’s only me and him, and he’s not bothered about a bit of dust. I may vacuum the window sills tomorrow as they’re covered in dead...
How do you eat yours? I put three in my mouth at a time, suck all the chocolate off, then crunch up the insides. I find one isn’t enough, two sometimes is sufficient but three is the optimum (or...
We have a small border, approx 6ft x 18inches, under a window at the front of our house. It gets the sun from about 1pm till 8pm and is right up against the wall. In the past we’ve planted...
Where do you store them?
In winter I store them in a basket in the unheated utility room. In summer I’ve been keeping them in the fridge but they seem continually damp and go slimy quite quickly....
I have a few questions if you wouldn’t mind answering What were your first symptoms? How was it diagnosed? How long have you had it? Has it progressed fairly quickly or not? What treatment do you...
To have with our veggie burgers tonight I’m going to chop two large almost too soft tomatoes, an orange pepper, and a handful of black grapes, maybe a small shallot. Add some French dressing and away...
The one I made to take away with us did us for almost a week and it was delicious. I just got the urge to make another so scoured the cupboards to see what I had in before our click and collect shop...
Following in from Haz’s biscuit thread, and because the above will shortly be upon us, what’s your favourite cheese? Roquefort is definitely my favourite but I also really, really like a strong,...
We had chicken curry which we brought with us, frozen. With veetee rice and peshwari naan. Followed by a magnum and a thin slice of all bran cake, buttered. Preceded by a few G&Ts, and followed by an...
We set off yesterday at 7pm and had a trouble free car journey to our destination, would definitely do it again at that time. We’re in the middle of the countryside on the banks of a river, peaceful,...
Barry, you spurred me on and I’ve just put one of the above in the oven :) We had visitors last month, one of whom I bought all bran for and had half a box left over after they’d gone. I nearly threw...
A bit if one of my molars fell off, dentist appointment tomorrow for a dressing..whatever that means. No pain, just a sharp bit my tongue keeps finding. As we’re going away for two weeks, on Saturday,...
Do those of you who suffer from hayfever get a wheeze with it? The last couple of years I seem to have developed hayfever for the first time in my life. This year it seems to be accompanied by a...
We’re back from the first of our family holidays, went to Ile de Re in France and had a wonderful time, so wonderful I sunburned my nose!! Looking forward to the next one in July in the UK, and then...
…and we’re not sharing it with anyone ;) It’s a one tray thing with tiger prawns, chorizo, tomatoes, lemon and many other things, and is one of our favourites. Followed by the lemon trifle I made,...
