oooo well I'm hoping the panny lives up to the high hopes I have of it My previous breadmaker it has to be said has been near perfect! It's just getting to where the silicon is wearing off through wear and tear so it's not very non-stick, the motor for the blade is also making lots of noise and the nut and seed tray thing lost it's cover long ago It's had a long and hard life by my Breadman Ultima (or something like that) has done well I have to say Panny (oh dear lord it's been named now!) has some big shoes to step into

BTW all you with cook books... I got the best one EVER... sorry there is no competition with Jamie, Deliah and Gordon... I got:



Nanny Oggs cook book! Yep! Complete with Nobby's mum distressed pudding amongst many favourites! (and most are actually doable so shall have to have a go lol)

I got a Carl Lewis health grill. I would never have put his name to a cookery product, but reading a copy of FHM in the gents bogs at work a while back, that lads mag rated it the best grill going for size and cooking potential. Can't wait to get the steak on it...:D

Got a great Curry recipe book and a set of cookie cookers and three biscuit/cake tins (which stack into each other when empty like Russian dolls). I'm delighted with my OS presents

Also got some self indulgent presents too

tine - I got Nanny Ogg's Cookbook too! Totally unexpected as I hadn't even heard of it until a couple of days ago but DH knows I am a complete TP freak and when he went to get me Wintersmith he spotted that on the shelf too and bought it for me.

Other than that I got my Sabatier carving set which was a complete joy to use yesterday and I know BIL has something up his sleeve to do with patchwork but I don't know what.

LOL me too

My mum retired recently and she's missing the internet, they STILL haven't got a computer at home :rolleyes: She always used it at work. I bought the OS book for her, she said
"oooooooh, a Martin Lewis book "

:rotfl: :rotfl:

She's thinking of getting a laptop and internet connection so hopefully she'll join us on here :T

I think pretty much all my presents were OS this year with the exception of a four piece dinner service from some good friends. Good though, because now I can serve up a dinner for four for the first time (don't try saying that out loud) with everything in the same pattern

One of the highlights is a set of thermal socks

Honest My feet get cold easily and then seem to stay cold for ever - so I was really pleased to get them

But the top top TOP one has to be my brand new Morphy Richards Fastbake. It's the one with the lie flat blade and it makes jam too. Tried and tested already and the very first loaf out of it was a success. Yay! And I like the tall sandwhich loaf type of shape as well. No more cropping slices to fit the toaster or, as is more usually the case, top and turning it so that the middle is almost burnt but the ends are still underdone.

Oh and I got huggy thing. It has a wheat bag in it that you heat in the microwave and apply where needed. It's like magic

So I'm pleased to announce that I've had a really good christmas this year. Not just presents - it's been a lovely time altogether. Best Christmas I've had in years.
