I will firmly point out I did not buy this. It was given to me from a Secret Santa from a colleague who used to say me and her were the Cheeky Girls of the department.
They'll pay you 50p to burn it
...Linda xxIt'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.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
I've not got anything for dinner either.
Mind you, I prefer that to Lenny's menu!0 -
No good. Need food. Morrisons here I come. :eek:0

Ok time to cook some proper jacket spuds the Delia way!
Ingredients
2 large Desir!e potatoes, 8-10 oz (225-275 g) each
a little olive oil
rock salt, crushed
a little butter
salt and freshly milled black pepper
Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 5, 375°F (190°C).
First you need to wash the potatoes and dry them very thoroughly with a cloth, then leave them aside to dry as much as possible. If you're using ready-washed potatoes you need not do this, as the high heat will purify them. Next, !!!!! the skins a few times with a fork, then put a few drops of olive oil over each one and rub it all over the skin. After that, rub in some crushed salt – this will draw out the moisture from the skin and, together with the oil, provide more crunchiness.
Now place the potatoes straight on to the centre shelf of the oven and let them bake for 1¾-2 hours, or until the skins are really crisp.

a swear word in a Delia recipe :rotfl:
well, that was good fun. It came in at £40 for all my CD's and my 3 DVD's. Definitely going to get rid of some - probably all those over £1 and all the 'mistakes'. However.........when.........and more importantly why........did I buy the Greatest Hits of Eminem?I have no recollection of buying it whatsoever!

blimey - and £3 again for something I would have thought would be 30p!! And a third!
I have either weird or rare music tastes :rotfl:
Music is an odd beast, I got a job lot for £5 a while ago - six CDs, made £8 so far and still have three left. Turns out one was a sort after limited edition!No longer using this account for new posts from 20130 -
I've just checked my on-line banking and I have a £10 bank credit. Very nice, but I'm not sure where it's come from.
