    Ours is done too :) Me & DS2 & DD1 had stir-fry with prawns and OH & DS3 & DS4 & DD2 had those new turkey drummer thingies with chips and broccoli. Those drummers are supposed to be 100% turkey breast but they don't half look dry when their ready :( Enough of the Jamie Oliver :) My OH really got up my nose, why did he think it'd be a good idea to go into Morrisons to get me a copy of Mamma Mia at £7, find out it had gone up to £11, not buy it and then TELL ME!!!!!

    *edit* hi ct :hello: hi pd :hello: I'd noticed that too about the page numbers not being at the top but I thought it was just me :p
  • :D Thanks TMK! Glad to know its not just me
    Keep thinking positively
  • oooooh - all that food talk is making me hungry & I've only had brekkie today so I'm STARVING!!!!

    OH is gonna be home soon & will be making a scrummy tea - dunno if I can wait that long though!

    OMG!! it must be like a militry operation getting that many meals everyday tmk!

    I have no numbers either, the whole site seems to be a bit cranky this afternoon but it could be the news that MFI and Woolies have appointed Receivers, something like that usually gets the site a bit packed.
