    Hi there -no problem

    If I put it in with pasta as the "free" element then its coming out at 18.5syns... hope whatever it is is yummy :D

    Aww it was really lovely :mad:

    I've been mental busy this week so grabbed a couple of salad boxes from asda rather than making up my own. I was suprised as to how nice it was so thought if its not too high on the syns I'd buy them quite reguarly..........not gonig to happen now obviously !

    Thanks for your help tho just wanted to check as I wasn't too sure I was doing it right.

    Just forced a bowl of fruit and yoghurt down as I wasn't hungry but I know by the time it is tea time gets here I will be starving and start picking at bread and cheese...so I went for prevention is better than cure in this instance.

    LOL.. I'm on a diet and making my self eat LOL.

    In my PURPLE book ripple is 33g = 9 syns.



    What is the very newest food directory out there please, mine is 2008/9 so if theres a new one I'll get my friend to get one for me.
    Had a look on SW site but can't find where the books are, any ideas?

    the books are only in the members bit, heres what the new one looks like ;)

    Nowt gets past you, does it Dizzy? I suppose I deserve that slap on the bum lol.

    I might not have lost any weight but I've definately lost an inch. I have to keep yanking my jeans up. Am doing a 6 mile walk tomorrow down to the college allotment and back to see what I've got growing, or to see if anything needs to come home with me. Fingers crossed everything hasn't been demolished and I can distinguish between the plants and the weeds!! (couldn't the last time I went down) If my plot looks rubbish, got another 8 plots to choose stuff from so should be ok.

    I'm loving this nice weather, long may it continue!! xx
    Yaaay, I finally conned a man into making a honest woman of me. Even more shocking is that I can put the words "Happily" and "Married" into the same sentence and not have life insurance on my mind when I say it ;-)

    Nope.....you cant kid a kidder as they say :D

    Is it shipley college youre at with the allotments?

    OH's mum has one just by the 5 Rise locks and keeps me supplied with lovely rhubarb, green&Broad beans rasberries blackberries sprouts (didnt do well last year tho) and onions. Shes getting on a bit now tho and on about giving up as only a quarter of her plot now being used,
    My OH wont take over cos he is sh*t scared of worms lol ....honest its like a real bad phobia:eek: Im hoping that maybe in a years time my balance system will be recovered enough for me to maybe go help her out a bit and we can grow lots more goodies :o

    from what our consultant said, you have to watch for anytime when they change the packaging on an item you normally get.....thats usually a sign theyve also messed about with the product :mad: like when they changed morrisons eat smart sausage package then they went from free to 1/2 syn each.

    But the problem is if you buy something that youve never had (so not noticed any difference in the packaging)

    I certainly dont mind checking things up for people when Im about.....but sometimes you just want to have a quick flick in a book and get an instant answer I suppose :o

    Where in the members bit did you find the book?
    I only paid 3.50 for mine as they were on offer at the club my friend goes to. Will have to get her to keep an eye out for another bargin, 7.50 is a bit out of my price range at the moment :o
