Wow, when you put it like that then I'm quite impressed with myself too Hypno :rotfl::rotfl:

How've you got on with your in-play bet benben? Two early goals combined with DD hassling me to help with her maths homework with the words "you're more interested in betting than you are with me", somewhat flustered me, but I should come out with a profit of just over £5 which is better than nothing.......

benbenandme

£7 profit here Hypno

hypno06

Excellent! If they were not so quick off the mark, I had found a cracker that would have given me a decent profit, but they were quicker than I was, so I was left scrabbling for a panic bet!

Still, £5.24 will be £5.24 more than I had at the beginning of the day!!

Your butternut squash has inspired me...and I have bought my sef one today.

Is it easy to make?

benbenandme

Yep its dead easy Chops;

chop an onion and gently fry it (use frylight if doing ww) for 4-5 mins
Add 2 chopped carrots, 1/2 a butternut squash peeled, deseeded and cubed, and 2 cloves of garlic (+ chillies optional), fry for another 4-5 mins, add 2 pints of veg stock (oxo cubes ), bring to boil then simmer for 20-25 mins, use a hand blender to whizz up the lumpy beg and voila It really is scrummy

Thanks BB

Evening all One day nearer the weekend already
Nothing new moneywise to report, my phone order has been confirmed, just waiting to see if it goes to dispatch now as there is still some cinfusion as to whether the orders will be honoured, they've been removed from the website now so clearly was a glitch, hoping they do keep to the deal

I've been really good with my points so far today and still have another 11.5 left

benbenandme
