    as for operation SHUNT .....well what can i say :eek:

    Don't worry Toots - I was only letting my imagination run away with me. :D

    And as to the food - do we need another ready steady cooky Soappie sess? Or shall I just advise?

    My advice is simple stuff. With lots of fresh veg. The salmon in foil is easy peasy - just do it with some fresh green veg and a couple of boiled new potatoes. Even fried egg and bacon with mash and frozen peas is, actually, a nutritious meal

    I think I did Soappie's lemon chicken at some point - that's easy peasy too - do it with salad and boiled new pots.

    Failing that, just buy in a bulk order of pot noodles and boil the kettle :rotfl::rotfl:

    Do you know he recipie for the cheese pie you used to get at school. I am 38 so it is awhile ago. It wasn't quiche and it usually got served with tin tomatoes.

    Are we talking cheese and potato pie here? I'm guessing we are so here goes...

    Take a load of mashed potato.
    Saute a chopped onion in butter for a few minutes and add it to the mashed potato
    Grate in some cheese (has to be cheddar type not mouldy stilton type!) - probable proportions are about four fifths mash, 1 fifth cheese (I do it by sight!) add to the potato mix.

    Lob in a greased oven dish - or a shortcrust pastry case - and shove in the oven on about gas mark 6/200 deg C for half an hour or so... until the top is nicely golden.

    But I could be very wrong about the cheese pie you were served at school...

    Toots - let me know when you're ready with the decorating and I do not need to stay - my SHUNT idea was about popping in for a cup of tea with people! Nothing more nothing less - no need for beds, no need for food (though a biscuit might go down well!), no need for stop overs and breakfast in the morning. Just a quick in and out - ooo er Mrs!
