    Funfairprincess – any update on BIL???
    Thanks for asking. I phoned the hospital and they fear he may have some sort of poisioning. His leg has filled with fluid so it's in a cast just now before they drain it. He'll be in for at least a week so he's not chuffed.

    Hi FFP - how did the cheese sauce turn out?
    Brilliant thanks I have used the recipe a couple of times. I've got to say the first time I made it the kids weren't sure about it but it was because I said it was soappie cheese sauce and they took me at my word:rotfl::rotfl: but they love it esp. since they know you are human.

    Piggers forgot to say tried out the SC hash and the kids loved it. Another winner. Hey my fly friends may make a slightly average cook out of me yet:T:T

    Hi Gang :hello:

    I got to work ok having left the potatoes on timer n the oven only to get a phone call at lunch time to say Messy Church was cancelled :eek: I got my sister to come round and switch the oven off but by the time she got here it was too late and I now have 40 :eek::eek::eek::eek: cooked jacket potatoes to deal with!

    I have taken 10 to my sister, just given 6 to neighbours two doors down, sent a text to Mum and Dad (who are out for the day and may have had a big lunch) to collect some. Guess what we are having for dinner!

    Never frozen them before but will give it a try, got nothing to lose. In fact I shall take some to work tomorrow for them all, I WILL get rid of them!
