do you need big potatoes like jacket spuds?
They don't have to be huge, Maris Pipers are good. I usually do a few different sizes because they're quite filling, you can pick which size you have depending on how hungry you are.
Have swept up the garden and it's all lovely now, think I'll nip for a hanging basket when I've got the kids, they can help me choose one.

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.0 -

"......I have half cleared my dining room table, i've found a plastic box to put wool in and knitting machine accessories, just washed that out, waiting for it to dry, while i was looking for box,:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: i found a big tub of white paint and a big tub of magnolia (magnolia will do in bathroom so saves a bit of money on paint, white will do kitchen and bathroom ceiling and theres enough paint left to touch up the walls in the kitchen, so i'm happy."......
Clair that so made me laugh it sounds as thought you found the paint on the dining room table............ you didn't did you! Off to do some more work, back later probably after finishing 2nd job and last bit of ironing so may be late. Billie x:j I belong to Mike's Mob :j0 -
No Billie not on the dining room table, but knowing this house could have been
no it was under the folding table in the kitchen, where i keep empty plastic boxes.
Well dining room table cleaned, knitting machine put away its stood in the middle of floor cause its too heavy for me to lift, and i'm not chancing trying to lift it and do more injury to my back and hip
My shelf unit has been dusted except for top of it, can't reach,and me and steps do not go together, (will ask DS2 if he will do it when he comes in)
just the little shelf to clear now and the computer desk, need to wipe windowsill too, can't do much about window area cause theres three bikes there (after bathrooms done, if any money left my mate is going to build us a shed at the bottom of the garden)
I WILL have this house looking like a home and not a slum lolBoiler pot £30.92/£10000 -
