It looks like it's my connection, Facebook's running slow as well. It'll be Amy on torrent sites again. I told her they strangle the bandwidth for that but she never listens. *rolls eyes*

Anyone have the recipe??

Easy peasy SRM:

1 butternut, de-seeded, peeled and diced
1 red pepper, de-seeded and diced
1 onion
2 pts hot vegetable stock

Chop veg and put in pan with hot stock. Simmer 30-40 mins until butternut is tender, then blitz till smooth. I also added some black pepper and a couple of shots of tabasco!

:j Snaggs, I too have been out. I wasnt going to go but because of work I needed some head space. So I planed to do a huge walk (cutting out the 'problem woods') of about 5 miles. However when I got up to the fields all the footballers were on the top field so I stole the bottom one I did quite well, however I hated it when the home team scored as the goal was opposite me :rotfl: P/b although I dont think you can call it that as I am not really a runner yet Going to go out in my trainers Monday now and see if it makes any difference

Talking of cars, my brother didnt know when his mot was due so checked two days ago and its due Tues. Well its just been tested needs £400 worth of work (rover metro so he thinks its not worth doing the work) and he has no savings :wall: Buses for him again :rotfl: That will teach him... didn't stop him asking me for the money though :mad:

Ohh btw, if I had it I would prob help him out. The fact is I am skint and in debt, also he earns double than me yet still can't/won't budget

Thanks guys..d'ya reckon I can use chicken stock? I have loads of hm in freezer..

SuzySu

Yeah......you could, although it would probably change the points value as there will probably be some fat in it. I really wouldn't worry. I'm sure it will taste even better with hm stock!

Aargh. I had a call earlier from my brother that he got a letter from baliffs for non payment of council tax delivered this AM (complex circs, this relates to when he lived with a friend prior to becoming a mature student). He lives a long way away and is worried about his belongings. I've posted a thread for advice and an amazing friend of ours is driving to his place (about a 1hr + round trip on main roads) to collect stuff for me.

We haven't seen that friend for a long time and I am so truly grateful that they could drop everything to go bail out my brother by keeping his belongings safe.

Thank goodness I'd posted my parcels - my tidying however has not yet been started, strangely enough.

Yeh but i would of thought that there would be a point or 2 in it due to the fat, though if you get 2-4 servings out of it its only gonna be half point, still def worth it in my opinion.
