all sounding really positive NLID. Do make sure you get through to CCCS as I am sure you will feel better once you have done.

Thanks Jo - You have to take every opportunity which is thrown at you, and a fuly functional MOT'd for 12 months car worth over £700 for half that is a gift which will put food on the table for a few weeks and allow me to spend the money we have for food on getting debts paid of.
If it sells I may even treat myself to a curry! Not had one in nearly 3 weeks now and i am really really missing them!£4142.49/ £131,795.91 - 3.14% paid off or only £129,608.80 to go!

Jo,
I can write a complicated computer program, rebuild a car, build computers, sort out some plumbing issues, perform many other electrical tasks, make an excellent cafetier of coffee, have DS giggling so hard he must wet himself laughing - however ask me to make a couple of slices of toast! You will get either:- burnt
- underdone
- too much butter
- too little butter
- knife gone through the toast trying to butter it
And you want me to make a curry! I darent guess what can go wrong on that one...
Seriously, We have the stuff in to make a Jar curry - but neither of us have the time/energy to make one from scratch due to us putting so much effort into everything else...£4142.49/ £131,795.91 - 3.14% paid off or only £129,608.80 to go!

NLID all but 1 of those slices of toast are edible/ rescuable and some might sya the burnt one too.
doing a stirfry with a bought curry sauce prob takes less time/ energy than you think and noodles only take about 3 mins in boiling water.lol
know what you mean though.

Jo I picked toast as just one example...
My idea of cooking a meal for OH- is nipping to the chippy and getting chips and gravy or whatever she wants... It is just one of those things in my head that is not switched on - and I dont have the free time to practise.£4142.49/ £131,795.91 - 3.14% paid off or only £129,608.80 to go!
