    Excellent News Marru. Got to be a good omen.

    Gien-That's exactly what I have done. Came back in andd saw your post and smiled!! Coming back from shopping car had gone so it's not like i moved it as soon as the space was free (Trying to justify myself!)Don't know why I feel so bad about it or why I find saying what I want to say so hard...???? Hopefully they will moan to themselves about how silly it is to park on the road when your drive is free, and realise that is exactly what they did. I am turning into a grumpy old woman.

    Tonight we have separate dinners again. I seem to be on king prawn frenzy. Marinating in garlic,ginger,chilli and lime. Going to have them with new pots (seems strange but we shall see) DS will have chciken breast with the new pots and peas.

    Hi Jo! Fab thread - let me get this right, it's just a gossip shop really, yes?! I hope you're getting to grips with your money situation - remember, the sooner it's faced and addressed, the sooner you can get on with tackling it, the sooner it's under control. :oand here endeth the lesson!

    Dinner tonight was fish pie - made to my own adaption of a recipe from an old Rick Stein programme, and known as "Rick Stein's French Mates British fish pie". I keep some fish stock in the freezer JUST for making the sauce for this! Tonights fish consisted of Smoked Haddock, pollack, and some prawns. Very MSE as the haddock was yellow stickered, the Pollack was Mr S Basics "white fish fillets" and the prawns were Mr T's Value!
