    I think stores should do all bikini and underwear sets in mix and match, that way you can pick what size you have for the top and bottom. I also wish stores would do dresses in different chest widths, the same as they do with length in jeans and stuff. Not all of us come in perfect sizes.

    That's a great idea :T

    and it doesn't help that no two shops are the same size......

    Toto, as long as the meat is cooked properly, and the center reaches 70 deg c for 2 mins, the meat should be ok.

    Thanks cat

    Does that mean the beef needs to be well done? I prefer it pink in the middle.

    I should get one of those meat thermometers really shouldn't I.

    this is from the British Beef site : http://www.simplybeefandlamb.co.uk/scripts/simply.php?header=tipsroasting

    i'd take the meat out of the fridge about 30 mins before cooking to let it get to room temp.

    Well the knickers were attaced to the bra with one of those tag things so I think the label is just wrong - I've lost weight in the last week so there is no way I can be size 12/14!!

    I have a problem with trousers because I only have 4 inch difference between waist and hips - I have to get waist ones and then I get gaps when I reach up or sit down - very annoying - skirts are much better as they usually sit on the hips :D

    Morning.

    Sal, I had the same thoughts as Becky ;)
    Toto, I take meat out of freezer and put it into the oven (switched off) to defrost....then I know it's not getting attacked by the cat or any flies landing on it.
    Becky, I find that some of Primani's sizings are wayyyy off :confused: I'm the other way...no boobs, but big hips.
    Maz, when we let a house recently, it was swung by the fact that it was a single mum who was already claiming tax credits etc and 'was in the system' and would no doubt be a long term tenant, rather than a couple who worked and would possibly be saving up a deposit to buy.....maybe mention this to letting agent. Well done on the weigh loss.

    Bookie....where are you?

    I knew it was a mistake getting the sun lounger out yesterday...raining here now :mad:

    Love and hugs to everybody :kisses3:
