    I had a reply from Philadelphia about the exploding tubs!

    Dear Linda,

    Thank you for your email and I am sorry you have been disappointed on this ocassion. Philadelphia cheese has redesigned its packaging and is to be launched un the UK soon. (sorry cats)

    The new packaging will be an oval shaped, silver tub, with a stronger lid to maintain freshness and will is generally a stronger packaging.


    Kind regards,

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.

    ooooooh, and when I played along and said 'ok, if I lend you the money for a deposit on a house, how quickly would you pay me back?' .......he said 'well, I'll give you the equivalent of the interest you'd get with it sitting in the bank and you could have the capital back 'when you needed it'.......erm.........don't think so!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Morning,
    Well, so far have tidied living, hallway and kids rooms, my bedding and Joe's in the wash, swept dining room, wet dusted EVERYWHERE and did the dishes. Washed out microwave and hob. Tidied and washed down breakfast room as well...looking loads better! Off for Sunday lunch. DH came home from work (detour to driving range and B&Q-he's such a 'bloke') and has gone to bed-very busy night in Telford last night-apparently he was out alllll niiiiight! (working, not partying!)

    Kids outside playing, did I need to mention got them up and fed, put away the 4 loads of laundry I have folded so far and tidied the kids rooms as well??? DD room is a bloody pigsty, honestly, I don't know HOW she makes such a mess! *Bunny as makes mental note NEVER to give DD another makeup set with nail varnish EVER again* Was washing down her walls and all sorts.

    Now, shower time and roast beast for lunch, YUM.

    Morning all,

    Lou LOVELY to see you xxxxx

    It seems in my valium/painkiller induced haze last night I have bid on some "faux Mongolian cushions" and some African land snails(!?????!)

    hmmm. I also bought some fish food and a new Thermometer - which was what I was looking for how the hell I ended up with the other two is anyone's guess!!

    not my fault, not my fault, not my fault, not my fault, not my fault

    am back. Very windy here today but beautiful bright blue skies and sunshine.

    Ex has said he will take Charlie twice as my back is knack'd which helps really as it doesn't agitate it any more than it needs to be really.

    I need to wash up, do some AQA and then I need to try tomorrow night's recipe to check the amounts work. They will be making a 4 cheese pizza so I want to make sure the ingredients for the dough works and also they don't stick to the baking trays the school provides.

    Oh, and it's gone rainy and overcast here. Boo.

    Was lovely.

    BB, can you not speak to the Dr about physio instead of having to take constant drugs? Surely the damage would warrant some kind of help for the pain.

    Lou-so glad you had a nice time.

    Buffy-those African snails are quite cool actually!
