    Are you making the food yourself?

    I would go for a baby new potato salad with a mustard & honey dressing ( v easy) or a pack of sausages if you cant be bothered to cook lol

    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind

    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Hi Kevicho

    How about a bowl cous cous a flavoured one like sundried tomato or lime/lemon - the packets aren't expensive adsa smart price ones are nice - its deas easy to make just add water and decorate with baby toms/cucumer - everyone will think you've put loads of effort in and it would have cost you less than a pound for a big bowl full!!

    PS thanks for your advice last week you were very helpful
