    I've washed up and cleaned the murkowave - it really was disgusting. I'm going to wipe it over again in the morning with a clean cloth as when I finished the cloth was really manky!
    Does a microwave count as a small appliance or a large appliance?

    Now Mary Portas is over (I love that show), I'm going to go and have a bath, as I'm nearly as manky as the murkowave! I think DH will make me sleep in the car if I don't have a bath!

    Afternoon didn't go as planned, ended up working late. Anyway managed to get to supermarket and got loads of wondrous bargains (love waitrose), cupboards/freezer and fridge now stacked.:D

    Gammon was on slowcooker and new pots and green beans in steamer so tea was done and dusted.

    Fridge wiped down inside, some spillage now gone.

    Bin out and a binbag filled but no room for it anywhere.

    Hubby has had to go to casualty as his wedding ring got crushed, whilst on his finger, in the vice tonight in the garage...he's gutted because he needs it cut off but his finger is swollen and turning a funny colour.:(

    Oooooh! Good luck with your interview Soappie!

    I've spent the afternoon re-organising the kitchen for a big tesco delivery. I spent £200 for the month but that gave me a saving of £80! Just need to get weekly fresh stuff now.

    I've also planted a rhubarb patch....i've been searching rhubarb on here for recipies but there's some VERY odd threads about! Any greenfingers know if it's true that I can't harvest for two years to make sure the plants get all their energy back?
