    Shall I start at the doc, and go for an xray if needed :confused:

    If I do it that way, I can get some strong allergy tabs while I'm there ehh :D

    Apply heat until they catch fire. Fire extinguisher foam will add a mild "soapy" flavour to your meal.

    both really. I've never enjoyed shopping in Bournemouth - I can probably count on both hands the times I've shopped there in the 17 years I've lived in Poole. As a place it is just full of flats now - may areas have had all the big Victorian/Edwardian houses converted, just don't like it as a place.

    Depends how you like them Dom, I usually do mine for about 1h30min on 195c. However sometimes I will zap them in the microwave to get them started. I like my skin really tough though so I test it before getting it out. As long as its soft in the middle and piping hot its edible :T

    Doomie-
    cook in oven until can poke easily with fork.
    Done.

    I think it's Jamie Oliver who says you shouldn't 'poke' them-I never do unless microwaving which is wrong on every level anyway...

    Evening all. Back from little jaunt and had a MaccyDs cause the Spud place was shut grrrrrrrrr, still mi 1/4pounder with cheese was alreet. Do you know the only thing that attracts me to McDonalds is the sweet and sour sauce, I love dipping my chips in it.

    Sammy - I dont youve over reacted, at all.

    Spud - I wouldnt fret about getting your kit off for an xray, I had to get my kit off recently and have 2 nurses stick something up my arris and scan mi scrotum. If I can do that so can you! (ermm I mean get xrayed not get violated :D )
