    Actually the letter thing is really good. I can talk for England but OH finds it dificult to say things so he sends me emails which he can ponder over and really say what is in his heart.

    Spud you have set me off now and I also have a rice pudding on the go:D

    Such is my cooking prowess and current state of mind, I've messed up. I used long grain rice, not the pudding rice I went and bought specially :rolleyes:

    Well, I've just had my lovely roast tea and attempted HM Yorkshires, and as Snags will agree, they turned out brilliantly!!! I'm dead impressed as I keep trying and normally they don't work.

    DS had me in stitches-I bought these sweets to go into charity boxes for the Samaritans and one of the bags of sweets were 'Build a Burger' from Tesco, and for some reason, they had a beaver on the front...anyway, DS sat all thru dinner asking for 'Beaver Sweets' LOL!

    what people dont see is the 'fat' girl wanting to be loved for who she is, not what she looks like...I have always been 'judged' before people when people see me-the amount of people that said 'I thought you were stupid/a beyatch' etc because of the way I looked is astounding-Im just me, a goofy, silly person who craves love and acceptance the same as everyone else.

    Despite how you see yourself Bunny, you are a fantastic lovely person with a tremendous sense of fun/humour whose humanity and warmth shines through.

    And don't argue - I'm a man, hence I'm always right.

    She wouldnt dream of leaving her meal and asking for pudd during the week when DH isnt around, but she knows that dad will allow it :mad:

    In future when he does it: "Of course you can have pudding. Your father has just offered you his."

    He doesnt go on, thats the problem.

    He just stays silent for days on end, and when he finally does start talking, it's too late to discuss the original argument, because several days have passed.

    Stop feeding him. How can he eat when his mouth isn't working?

    To be honest spud - I have difficulty telling the difference. If it's soft and ricey and with a bit of jam on top - who cares if it is the "wrong" rice?
