    scaredy - I used to work at the civic centre (the huge white building at the bottom of the hill) in the early/mid 90s and lived about 1/4 mile away from where you are staying. When I had no pennies, I used to walk home every lunchtime and do beans on toast or some chips in a chip pan and walk back again. The bit just before you get to the lights is the killer bit!!!!

    Right, time for some dinner now I'm back. Some of the chocolate ended up in the cases - some in my mouth :D

    Buffy why don't you do really nice sandwiches..cheap but easy (ham, egg, salmon, etc etc with the crusts cut off) mini quiches, brucheta, you can then do fairy cakes, profriterols,

    Night Pap, have you heard anything from work?
