on the kitchen floor. Along with my lunch . .....:mad: I didn't drop the lid. The pan itself has bent out of shape a bit.I've stuck another spud in to bake but the lid's definitely not fitting so well.

Rye bread in breadmaker
Can you use rye flour in the breadmaker? I have a Morphy Richards fastbake - it doesn't have a rye setting. What if I mixed it with wholemeal and did it on the wholemeal setting? I've never baked with rye flour before. Hope someone can advise! Thanks.

Black stains on towels
I'm a bit puzzled by the black stains that appear on my towels regularly. They look like colour has run into the towel from something dark, but I always wash whites seperately so that can't be the case. They are grey and appear in patches on the towels. Don't smell, and no little black spots, so I think (hope) not mildew.…

help - rollerball ink leak on linen sheets
Help - I just discovered (yes, a very late night) that I have left the top off a roller ball pen - blue ink - in my bed. It was initially in a few concentrated splotches. I thought that meths was the way to treat it and poured some on, but it spread the stain everywhere. The other sheet I have treated with a Ballpoint Pen…

Does anyone sell healthy, OS style ready meals?
My DM lives alone and has Altzheimers, she can no longer cook for herself. For the last 3 months or so, I have been going round each evening and cooking a meal for her. Sometimes I can reheat a portion of what we are having but she doesn't like spicy foods, pasta or rice. I have also batch cooked especially for her. I am…

Where would be good to pick blackberries accessible from North London?
It's blackberry season. I could buy them in a store, but when they cost £2-3 for not that many, it would make a lot more sense to find some to pick myself. There are quite a lot on Hampstead Heath at the moment, not far from where I live, but I'm thinking it might be better to head further out of London (to the north), for…

Green Chillies
I hope this is the right place for this. I have a collection of green chiilies (they look like jalapeno size) from our plant which I need to do something with. We're chilli addicts but even we can't get through this many before they go off. I was thinking of making a relish or jam but don't have a clue where to start - the…
