    Hi Jan. Long time no see. How are ya? :)

    Really? I never knew that! :o

    Hi SS, I am good thanks. I mostly hang around in the "apocalypse now" boards(otherwise known as the House Prices, Buying and trying to Sell boards)but I am going to have to move, it is just too depressing.

    I have been meaning to say congratulations to you for ages for your sig figures. I am not stalking you I promise :o but I am looking forward to seeing you become debt free. I suspect MSE might go into meltdown on that day!
  • Can anyone help me with window cleaning tips? I've heard you can use vinegar and newspaper, but I'm not sure which type? Should I use a tabloid or a broadsheet? :confused:


    :p


    I've only got balsamic vinegar, can I use that or fairy liquid? :undecided

    Hiya SS! *waves*

    You want the real cheapo table vinegar for cleaning, tis only something like 10p for a huge bottle. Balsamic vinegar is lush, don't go wasting it lol!!

    Beyond that I dunno cos I'm bad and buy supermarket own brand glass cleaner for my windows and mirrors. :o:D

  • If I cook a load of roasted vegetables (in the oven now) can I freeze the leftovers?

    If so, or not, what's the best way to reheat them? Microwave? :undecided

    it depends on your preference I do, love crispy skin but can spoil look of a dish. I sometimes save the skin and make stock with it.

    I prefer to use passata (sieved tomatoes) - less lumps and always seems to be more flavour, more like a jar type sauce. But a bit more expensive (still nowhere near Dolmio prices though). The kids like it with lots of basil in and a smidge of garlic. You can also buy passata with basil and garlic already added ;)

    Get yourself to lidls for youre passata 29p a carton:D

    i just fry my mince with garlic and onions and then add the passata with a good glug or worchester sauce and oregano - bit of agrlic bread mmm lovely - also found that actually crumbling some cheese into the sauce as it's cooking makes it taste lush a £3 pack of mince lasts me for 2 meals so 1 spag bol 1 shepards pie, passata 29p and herbs from the cupboard so £1.79 will give 2 EXTREMELY large portions if not 3, 2 for me and hubby and one for the freezer :D
