    What was wrong with the duck :confused: was it still too greasy then? Im sure the plum sauce was fine, if it was from a chinese supermarket. the sharwoods one has got these rogue bits of sliced babycorn in, and they are almost jellylike - not pleasant.

    Yeah. Not easily 'shreddable' as if it wasn't tender enough (like the difference between roasting and slow cooking:D ) A little greasy and fatty in parts. Makes it sound 'orrible now, but it was really lovely!

    That Sharwoods sauce sounds DISGUSTING....._pale_

    Ot in time for xmas? Good luck. It's something to aim for.:)

    HEX oh no - move just before xmas?!?! :eek: - i do hope it goes smoothly for you! well as smoothly as such a thing can go really :)

    SUNNY Angel hope the day goes easy on you. sounds like a busy one!

    KSCOUR i like your idea to remove everything before they get home ;) - i've got only a few bits up so easily done!

    TNG your DW might be your DW after all :) - well, i don't hope so for her sake :D

    PONDSAVER ouch hope the asthma has gone by now! never nice a trip to hospital! :grouphug:


    anywhooooo
    spent most of the last hour on my computer :whistle:
    but there is just soooo much to read up on for all the savings to be happening :D
    every other minute either dd or ds are crying for my attention so it's going very slowly :think:

    lunch will be sandwiches and dinner will be s/c beef (have to put it on rather soon then, eh?!)

    ds will go to nursery at 1pm; will have a look around in towncenter for some cheap deals :D
    and afternoon might do the beds, more washing of course (did i mention that yesterday for whole 5 minutes i had an EMPTY washing basket :eek: :dance: - well, as i said ... 5 minutes :()
    put away rest of the halloween decs and might even clean lounge windows - haven't done anything in the lounge so far :o

    but it is sunny for a change!!!! (might even attempt doing some bits in the garden :think:)
    I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work ;)

    Must say Pondsaver - please take it easy, remember that without your health you have nothing :( FLYing should mean your housework is in small manageable chucks and not too tough. Please rest.

    You know in tv programmes when they speed things up and the people are just a series of blurs........

    That is how I imagine it would be to be a fly (haha) on the wall of Punky's house

    You ROCK, lady!!!

    LYNZ cant imagine you do so much flying in your ohsomuchfliedplace!!! - hope the hospital goes well :grouphugs:
    PONDSAVE know what you mean with 'addictive' :D
    CASHSAVER can't you tell we are having fun :D - i like the 'hiding rest of ironing till further notice' :rotfl:
    PUNKY i so agree! i actually sit down and reply and woooops, when i post it there are several more NEW posts - how on earth can we keep up :D - but good fun too :cool:
    and hat off: you always have such a long have-done/to-do list ... and actually get it done :beer:

    so! hungry monsters are fed (me included :D) - dd is in bed and ds is watching tv.
    i guess d/w is next. then i could either go through more kitchen cupboards or have a look in the utility room :think:
    tough decisions ;)
    I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work ;)
  • Well we have moved to a new zone now with it being first of the month and all that which is good for me as I don't have a dining room so less for me to do YEAH

    new task is: We are in Zone 1 for the rest of this week; that is the Front Porch, the Entrance area and the Dining Room.

    Today you are to sweep your front porch area around your front door. Shake out your welcome mats and wipe down your front door. This makes a huge difference in how your home looks. We have a tendency to neglect this area and yet it is the first thing that people see when they come to your home.

    Spend 15 minutes taking care of this, you will be pleased with the results
