    One of the graze selections has chewy banana in it, I found it a bit odd to start with but it's nice. I prefer fresh or chipped ones though.

    I didn't like the Graze banana chips Ames, I gave them to Elliot's hamster :D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Mmmmm I love salmon and mackerel. Once I've cleared the freezer (which means stopping buying more stuff, something I'm struggling with), I'm going to get properly sorted with my shopping, get fruit veg, milk etc from tesco, and then do a monthly meat and fish shop from the market.

    So, that's what I'll be doing come, oooh, about 2014...

    You could try making your own yoghurt, it'd be a lot cheaper. Z said on here a while back how to do it and it sounds really easy.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

  • why would he ignore you bookie? :(

    Because he knows all is not well. He preaches that we should 'give our donations to the church safe in the knowledge that the church would give it back or help if things go bad'. I think he is scared I will ask for a refund. :D
    Plus we had a few run ins over his attitude when I was churchwarden.
