    Have a good one, whatever you are roasting :D
    We have pork shoulder in the oven roasting at the moment and will be serving it with M&S green beans and tatties. Om nom nom :D

    I realised that there's LOADS of it though, so it's stir fried pork for dinner tomorrow :o

    Was nice to bring my Nana over, and I really should make the effort to do it more often. She only lives an hour away, but to go and get her, bring her here for dinner, and take her home again means 4 hours in the car, which feels like an awful lot more than "only an hour away"!!

    Why don't you just rock up to hers with the ingredients? Then it'll only be 2 hours.

    I presume she has a cooker?

    She is in a little sheltered bungalow thing, with just 2 hob rings and a microwave. There were 5 of us today for dinner, and so there just wouldn't have been that much space at hers either to cook, or to sit down and eat.

    I do go to hers when it is just me, but this was for my mum and the kids too.....

    I bet it was still lovely to show your nana your place. At least she can picture it now when you tell her about it next. My nana's not been very well for a while so am feeling very appreciative of them at the mo!

    Re food - I now have no kitchen so we had to let the nice chef at the pub to make us a roast!!!!;)

    Loved the recent conversation re ironing. I do love ironed clothes but have never put an iron near my smalls. My hubby thinks I'm mad for ironing sheets but there is nothing, and I mean nothing, like getting into a freshly made bed with ironed sheets!!
