    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?

    *Oh Lord, I appear to be posting on Flylady again. God help me I swear my house is clean :o*

    I would harvest VERY little this year and more next year Mudbath. Just don't deplete the crown fully and feed it well in the late summer and it should be fine. ;)

    *backs out again* :whistle:

    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.:(

    My stepdad has had several wedding rings.. 1 he welded to his finger! another he caught on the pin for the arm on the window closure thing and ripped ALL the skin off his finger.. so it was just bone!! That was nasty! another he was changing a battery in the car and the ring made the connection between the llive bits and melted the metal and stuck the 3 fingers together with melted gold.. and he got another one!! :eek:

    Can he not turn it round and et something under it to straighten it back out so he can get it off and reshaped at least? Screwdrivers are always good for this! .... and I'm not telling you how I know lol
