I see the vote is definitely in favour of pancakes :rotfl:well, I don't have electricity tomorrow, because the mice damage is being repaired, so that'll keep me warm, cooking them
In the garden, macgirl, I'm committed to growing my own berries and currants, along with herbs and other fruit - to take some of the strain off the new food plan, if nothing else, but I'd already planned to do it. And I'm wondering about eating my own hazelnuts - must research that!
Z - thanks! I suppose since its just flour, the "suck it and see" method that cheery and macgirl both do will be fine - I tend to overcomplicate things2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -

Hope the new health routine helps - it doesn't sound too drastic so hopefully you can integrate it without too much hassle.

KC - on the planting calendar you've got, do you know where in the country it was, it's just that you can plant earlier and for longer in the south, whereas it's a far shorter growing season in the north.
For cup measures, I just used a small cup, and the recipes seemed to work out OK.0 -
Hope you managed ok without the electricity and the mice hadn't done too much damage. I'm guessing you've run off with one of the electricians thenDebts at LBM - Mortgages £128497 - non mortgage £27497 Debt now £[STRIKE]114150[/STRIKE][STRIKE]109032[/STRIKE] 64300 (mortgage) Credit cards left 0

Have a good day
It feels drastic to mebut it isn't really - I'm not getting quite enough variety, but since the leccy men have been here the last 2 days, I'm not going to beat myself up about that.

Er ..... I'm not using a planting calendarI could go to my free account on myfolia - that has your geographic location, tho I'm not quite sure if its accurate enough for the UK, its more the US, but the principle's sound, thanks se!

I wish! One was a grandad, one was a craggy countryman who seemed to mention his GF a lot :rotfl: and the other was a child - a tall child, admittedly, and one thats at college, but would definitely be cradle snatching for me :rotfl:
However, they've done the job! I'm being slightly picky about the plasterwork finish, which a light sanding will take care of, and about the rounded nature of the switches, which I didn't think to talk about with them .... but in general its really good. And it feels a lot saferHe spent hours and hours checking the readings on each plug, eventually found the problem, mended all the iffy bits, and now instead of having a circuit, I have two radials -
I know in detail what that means

I know enough to know that the work needed to be done, even tho I was nearly crying yesterday with tiredness. I even got out today to the post office - I had 3 books on amazon, and one sold! plus the kits for kids shirts I'd managed to collect. I've been back here ever since, sort of holed up, and I will be for the duration. Off to look at the boards, which seem v quiet, as Squizz commented on her thread.2023: the year I get to buy a car0
