    At least you found out in time Scaredy - what courses are you doing?

    MIL's in for a hip replacement today - we're waiting for news so I'm trying to keep DHs mind occupied.

    In other news he's just applied to be assessed for a motability car :j. He will need various adaptions so they'll come out and see what he needs.

    Good news on the mobility car Pooky :)

    well i'm back from mums, just having some HM chicken and veg soup mmmm and a coffee, put diced steak in slow cooker, once i've finished my dinner i will sort veg (dh asked for stew and dumpli8ngs for tea,) never made dumplings so that will be interesting :)

    then i need to empty dishwasher so i can put my dinner dishes straight into it and not leave in sink till later :)

    then i need to try and find the dining room :) that will be an elephant job or 2 lol.

    Dumplings are easy peasy Claire - half suet to flour, a pinch of herbs/spice/seasoning (if you want) and add small amounts of water until it forms a dough..... section it up into however many dumplings you want and chuck in the SC about an hour before you want to eat.

    I love them with lots of paprika in.

    Yes unfortunatly :( i couldn't afford to do it no more, so i'm trying on my own, eating mostly fruit and veg and staying away from carbs if i can, i'm still losing 1lb a week, although last week i ate a pile of junk, so i'm surprised i lost anything :)
