    Go and find a building site, or blokes digging a hole in the road. They are always making a brew!

    Or does your OH work in an office?

    Do you eat cereal? We get through loads of milk having a bowl of cereal if we're still hungry after our evening meal.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    I agree, he could have taken a few and left the others for someone else to use.

    as i said before :rolleyes: there was LOADS... he only took about a tenth of what was there, and around an hour after he'd bought it they were due to chuck the lot :rolleyes:

    i don't know why some people are being funny about it :confused: it's not like there were hundreds of starving people queing up behind him and he nabbed all of it :confused:

    Sneak around the neighbours houses at the dead of night and leave it on their doorsteps. Leave one on your own doorstep too so you don't get rumbled.

    I was thinking more of you tbh as it seems you have had a nightmare trying to find something to do with it all!
    Perhaps you should suggest he calls you next time to check you can either freeze or use it!

    maybe, but i think it was quite sweet of him really. he knows how tight things are, and he thought he was helping out. i can't knock him for that.

    and although it's been a bit of a nightmare, if i'd had more freezer space it would have been fab!

    i'll tell him to do the same again next time, as it's come in very handy to be honest, and my mum's certainly appreciating all the free meals/puddings :D

    this is a great thread....normally people are saying they use loads and it costs a fortune.....u could make a few vats of rice pudding...its great in the slow cooker....u could make smoothies for breakfast....make milky coffee....have u a cat ??...could u invite kids friends round and serve up milkshakes....u could make white sauce and freeze it in tubs......

    good luck with it
    oh iv just thought if u pour a bit in to the bath it helps essential oils to disperse...if its good enough for cleopatra...u only need a bit though i wouldnt suggest filling up the whole bath
    onwards and upwards
