    OBVIOUSLY I WAS VERY UPSET AND CONCERNED ABOUT THIS

    Sounds like Chrsitmas in the Beadle2 household has been destroyed this year.

    It's not about the pies, it's about a whole Christmas ruined, this compo claim could run into millions.

    I'm thinking at least £20,000 for distress. Get that bloke who used to be in Eastenders on the case immediately, he'll hold them to account.

    Send me all the pies. I will eat them, then if I die you'll know they were no good.

    once an item has been frozen, and, defrosted it cannot be re-frozen unless you change the "state"...

    eg... you buy frozen chicken breasts, you defrost them, you MUST NOT re-freeze unless you change the "state", i.e. cook them in a pie then freeze them
    I'm now a retired teacher... hooray ...:j

    Those who can do, those who can't, come to me for lessons:cool:
