I have been wondering what I can cook in the shortest possible time with the least effort.

I urge you to try the pork Heath, yes it does take 6 hours but no effort required, just bung it in and then 6 hours later it's ready

Hi,

Just a quick hello from me. Hope everyone is well.

Happy Birthday Sim :bdaycake:

Budgie - If I find out anything about the wireless connection being so unreliable I'll let you know. I gave in and ordered an ethernet cable today. It was only a fiver so worth it if I can use it when wireless is too slow. I hope you are enjoying X Factor! I'm recording it to watch later tonight.

DB x

Hi Db yes I did watch the X Factor My DS rang me and we were chatting for sometime, then he casually said: "isn't the X Factor on"? To which I replied yes but I have pressed the button that stops it on live feed. "Glad to know you have your priorities right" was his reply Well of course I wouldn't do that for anyone else But I am on 12 af days please DB intend it to be 13 today. Thanks for scoring sweetheart.

Sun? Sun? I think I forgot to pack it for the flight home.... haven't seen it since we got back.

Hope everyone's well today. Honey slow roast Duck today :drool:, potatoes (from the garden), some form of greens (from the garden) and maybe courgette surprise (guess :rotfl:)

Oh - and anyone who mentions the 'C' word is going on ignore! :mad: :mad: ::D

Firstly: we do not do snobby in Stoke on Trent
Secondly: The sun shines on the righteous
Thirdly: Well done on the: home grown produce :cool:
Fourthly: Re: the C word, Come the 24th of December and you are rushing through Oxford Street to get the lovely Esther's present, then you will think back and say: "Well how I wished I had listened to Dear Budgie")
Fifth and last for now: Tis good to have you back, Dear Lurky :A

As of Friday she was fine haven't looked on FB, sorry xx

Marru

Miss P is fine, she has decided to drop off from FB but has been in contact. We are aiming for a "secret 3 meeting" shortly :cool: So you can have a quess who is the no 3 then :rotfl:

Going to batch cook some today as well. Did pasta funghi today and got thumbs up from DD, not sure BF was quite that impressed. Will aim to do some of the other recipes that have olives so that I can use them before they go off. BF heading home now so we are ok to be a bit vegan/veggie for a week.

The third one, is it me, is it me

Oh I hope so , but then again - unless you're planning a secret visit up here - its probably not me!

Enjoy your time next week

Marru

Thanks Fay, you would definitely be included if you were a tad closer.

Ok here is the big stress factor. You might remember that I did couple of exams in June. I should get the results tomorrow :eek: and I am getting myself into a complete and utter twist about it. For me tomorrow just can't come quickly enough.
