I'm impressed to see that you aren't letting the grass grow under your feet, termoil! :T And I like the sound of the Skittles/Werther's vodka: what are the recipies for them?
Skittles vodka
1 bottle vodka
2 family bags skittles (green ones removed)
take a slug from the vodka to make room for the skittles, add skittles, shake, leave for as long as possible in a dark place. Shake occassionally.
Werthers
1 bottle vodka
bag of toffees
as above.......take slug from vodka, add toffee, shake and leave in a dark place for as long as possible giving it a shake every now and then.
I only used 1 bag of toffees and looks very watery so im gonna add another bag and see what happens!

The more the merrier cuppycake
Ive just done a spur of the moment thing and am now debating whether it was a good or bad thing hummm.
Ive just booked to go to Ilfracombe for afew days over the bank holiday. I will be going on my own and this somewhat scares me but I think that afew days away from it all in order to reflect and refocus cant be a bad thing and its cost me £90 for the hotel so dont suppose its that bad really!! Plus will give me a chance to use my camera and take some pics.Sealed Pot Challenge member #982

Wow termoil, are you superwoman in disguise! :T:T:T
You have a such a great attitude and I love your 101 things list. I feel tired just reading all the work you do - am glad you're getting a way for a couple of days, you deserve a break.Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!
