I could be really MSE :money:and make my own yorkshires and wedges but I find it too time consuming & i'm lazy :rotfl:

*brag alert*

Me and DH just made sugar-free peach jam for fergie breakfasts and 40 pieces of rocky road

susan there's a list from Cardiff council of activities that's 6 sides of A4 for the whole of cardiff, but I was reducing it down to ones we can easily get to IYSWIM? Also a list of REALLY near ones for when I'm 39 weeks PG and waddling around with a bored Fergus

That's terrible. Is fashism/neo-Nazism big or is it unusual for something like this to happen?

It's unusual on this scale - there are occasional neo-Nazi marches/demonstrations but they normally involve a small group of slightly shamefaced-looking skinheads with banners. There's also normally a mini-demo at the Oktoberfest but the demonstrators are quickly bundled out and arrested.

It's Reunification Day, is probably why it's so large. I'm thoroughly disgusted.

:mad: I have constant rage at our tiny tiny fridge and its freezer compartment; basically impossible to have more than 4 or 5 days' worth of food in there, can never freeze left-overs, etc. I consider where to put a big fridge-freezer, daily!
Funnily enough Glam, one of the few MSE things I do is make my own yorkshire pudding, and my own spicy potato wedges or diced etc. Otherwise I am very sinful shopper and our monthly is easily £350+ (with no cigarettes).

I am still keeping up with the thread but been hectically busy this week and under a lot of pressure and just rarely got round to posting! But I am here!
