    Volcanoes are great, but I seem to upset them and they erupt! Etna and Stromboli both erupted within 3 months of my standing on their summits. In 2007 Etna actually started her eruption whilst I was on the South Crater.

    The Icelandic one has taken 10 years since I stood at the waterfalls at the edge of the glacier around/over it.

    Oh it's your fault then... *batters Pepe round head with empty suitcase* :rotfl:

    Afternoon all,

    I got tea sorted all ready, a large ready cooked chicken from Tesco for £2 - will it be okay to reheat or should we eat it cold?

    it should be ok re-heated Gemmzie, as long as it's done thoroughly.

    I would stick to cold Gemmz.

    If reheated you need to get it to at least 74C ( I think) to kill anything thats lurking and that will also dry it out.....dont trust the microwave to do this!
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    Bunny, where you allowed to go?

    Went to the shop and got some juice and a paper...still got a blinding headache. Also managed to spend 18 quid in Boots and got tons of points (needed some shower stuff, but wanted some better shampoo/conditioner as my real hair colour is coming through - mate asked if i'd had it highlighted but I didnt!) Also got razor blades and my mate's lunch. Was a VERY naughty elf and picked up Dr Who series 3 for 25 quid in HMV.....yay!

    I do it all because I'm scared.

    and yes i am very naughty for saying that i know but hey we are suppose to be money saving here
    Drop a brand challenge
    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)
