This is what I say to myself Korky :T I booked a holiday to Switzerland (Basel)a couple of years ago and then I was not very well and could not cancel it: lost over £200! I am a bit restricted now because of my studies but really hoping to see more of the UK too. Actually I waste loads of time but it's just this feeling of guilt if I *plan* wasting time. This is nothelping because I feel less productive at the moment.

We went there Easter last year. The park is lovely and it's brilliant having all the extra free facilities for the kids (zoo, very small amusement park etc).

for Jacket Potatoes microwave for say 7 secs then fork it with fork prongs,then oven for 22 mins or so,they are lovely and brown then,thats what I do as it reduces the oven time as Mum told me to do it that way and I have done ever since especially if I have to put a pie in oven to cook then both are ready to eat.
