    BTW anyone know where I can get tins/jars of syrup? Sainsbury's only had bottles of pouring stuff, and I'm sure that makes it more expensive.

    I usually buy Tesco Value - 75p for a 1lb jar.

  • Justamum - thanks for that! I'll have to nip in to Tesco so I can make hobnobs and hedgehog!

    I've done 3 washloads, SS'd bathroom and shower room. Still need to do the kitchen, but may do that after lunch. DS is finally up and about, so I'm going to persuade him to do some stuff in his room and I can direct operations! That's the plan anyway. :rotfl:

    I'm going into his bedroom.....................I may be some time!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
