    *sends enormous wrath-ball up to scotland*


    *wrath ball will therefore be stuck just 1 mile south of Birmingham for many horrid hot sweaty hours*

    Did I? I'm not sure I did post much information on my blog (apart from that it's good for greasing your tins and is cheap) but I think I may have posted some links on here a while ago when you asked me about the idea saturated fat intake. Haven't got time to look around now but will try to find what info I have tomorrow. Must change my homepage back to my blog now. (But in the mean time, if you were to google "Sinner Saved" you'd prbably find it.)


    I think it seemed you were saying you had more info but not for your blog readers :rotfl:

    Here:

    Lard has something of a negative image due to all the bad press given to saturated fats (which is actually attribuatable to man-made rather than natural saturated fats but that's beyond the scope of this post)

    thankfully bed has restrained the mighty wasp catcher :D

    Nope, no other spends in ikea, but we live less than a mile from it, so can always pop back regularly.

    Remind me to tell you about the time Mr Weezl ate 3 ikea cooked breakfasts before 9 am :o:)

    Aww that just makes me more jealous. Am i the only person who doesnt live near an IKEA and where did AM put 3 brekkies for goodness sake? Looking forward to the pics as well
    Your wrath ball will freeze to death when it hits Scotland so ha ha!!!:rotfl::rotfl:

  • What Arty bear said about the 100GBP per month. I cant do quotes,due to lack of geekiness.

    It's your USP, flog it to death. No one else any place in the interwebs is doing 100 per month healthily.

    ps I have just made bacon and onion pudding and its about to go onto steam :-), ooh and I might have mentioned the webby in 1 or two places :-D

    pps we have IKEA here too \o/
    Eat food, not edible food-like items. Mostly plants.

    morning all :)

    Thanks lots for the aesthetic feedback.

    My preferred order for rolling out those changes will be:

    1. new banner, so that people with a very large monitor won't have an annoying white square (this has taken quite a bit of work and fixing, but yay! I think we have a solution! ) The new banner will make the site look quite different, so I'll stick with the new banner for a week and only then change the background, or the site will look so different that returning visitors may bounce away thinking it's the wrong site!

    2. So arty as I'm not in work to test on a monitor larger than 19 ins, can I send you a zip of the whole site, changed, for you to run on your PC only, and then get your feedback? It would be a couple of clicks, plus a bit of feedback thinking time, so hopefully a max of 45 mins for the whole job :)
