Lurks, hope your mincemeat is ok, looking forward to the end result pic! x

I haven't done these since as a kid with my mum so it might turn out to be an utter disaster. :rolleyes:

Pasta bake in the oven for tea - that is how far my culinary talent has stretched tonight.

Evening all,

Hope everyone's doing well. Been lurking but not had time to post for a wee while - busy Christmas times.

Have to confess to the odd glass of wine on a few nights out over the past fortnight but have stayed in control, called it a night after max 2 glasses and been 100% unhangovered so pleased with that.

Hi MP and everyone.

How long has it been? Dunno...was thinking of you all last night especially when I was sorely tempted....tempted isn't really the word....more like resentful of others that went out and went for it...it did pass but I was in a mood for a while...then woke up this morning feeling fine again....

what a season for excess!!!

take care ...it's' slippy out there in more ways than one.

Aww hi bis, lovely to hear from you. Have a wonderful christmas and remember to never become complacent, there is too much riding on it. Let your family enjoy a sober bis, thats all they want for xmas im sure xxx

Busy slaving over a hot stove, you might get photo evidence if I can get anywhere near the laptop tonight.

Very slippy out there, my road is like an ice rink, just watched a bloke push his mercedes up the road with his wife in the drivers seat cos his wheels wouldnt work on the ice! Held my breath as it slid past my car!
