  • They were just a dial thing. Seems to be accurate enough, but I don't do that much baking :cool:
    Keep thinking positively

    1 weetabix is 1 point!
    oh has gone off them for the mo, so I am having to eat them, easy to work out,
    I am having about 12 points a day, gotta try to increase it to the min of 18:rolleyes:

  • Ladies... and the occasional chap...

    I fall upon your mercy. I am 90% sure this is not allowed, but as a few forumites know, I work for a comping magazine. And my Real Life Winner dropped out this afternoon as she 'does not want her picture used now'. I still need to get this mag out by the end of the week!

    Would anyone be interested in talking about their big win in the magazine? Anyone? We'll need to publish a few smug pics and get you to tell us a bit about yourself... but there is a sizeable financial reward :)

    If you would be interested, please PM me, ok?

    And I apologize for trolling for stuff like this - I think/hope my post count shows that I am not here just for that!

  • And of course the real reward...

    I bake infrequently and that is the only time I weigh stuff, otherwise I always go on guesswork for dumplings and things. I always had cheap mechanical scales and was happy with them, but OH is a gadget man and when I moved in with him his digital ones won and mine were binned.

    How I regret that now, as whenever I want scales the battery never bloody works, same with his fancy bathroom ones too. Waste of space, but look lovely!!!! :rotfl:

    Just my preference and if you use them all the time then probably a good idea as I should think they're more accurate.
    But there are dreams that cannot be,and there are storms we cannot weather!
