    At last! I finally get OH off the computer! (Now I know how he feels! :D)

    Evening all, hope you've all had a good day and managed to catch up with end of month comps. I gave up on them!

    PMS, I agree that article is disgusting!! :eek: That poor baby how are they gonna feel when they get older & find out the truth.

    Kerrimouse, didn't realise it was your birthday too, hope you've had a great day. :beer:

    Gonna go comp for a bit. :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Evening all

    , I got a nice sirloin steak and followed the instructions, we don't like it rare so left it a little longer in the grill but it was still chewy

    Don't usually post in compers arms but having a drink tonight :beer: & thought I would pop in

    NNW - my OH loves steak & I just can't cook it - if he sees even one wee bit of pink he won't eat & I ended up over cooking all the time & getting shoe leather.

    Slice it up into finger sized bits - cook in wok till no blood coming out (about 6 mins) & add sauce & simmer very low for about 10 mins - lovely tender steak
    Doesn't look as good as full steak on plate but at least the fussy burgers (deliberate mistake) think its great:D
    HTH

    PMS, I thought OMG, typed a message then deleted it (was not sure if it was the wine that made me read it wrong) but OMG, what's happened to people?

    Wingo, good luck with the comps hun x

    I meant to ask, did anyone else get a dodgy text message today saying 'you're a member of our mobisnakz mobile subscription service. costs £1.50 a month and to stop text 80160? I haven't text back stop as I don't know if they will charge me for it but I certainly haven't subscribed to anything. :(
