Oops! I forgot to mention the fabulous home-cured ham. We ate some for lunch, and there's a whole lot more in my fridge.

remember, it freezes well...so five minutes sawing it up and freezing might make for a couple of easy suppers when back to school, or for packed lunches.

I bake hams usually, in dough. DH was v. excited when I baked ham last night (I did one for us too, late christmas fare) as he quickly adated to our family tradition of baked ham, and likes to get a portion of the dough...which my mother used to give as a dog treat or to small children. Which says it all really. :eek:

I had wondered, but am never really sure and tbh, don't care too much. its a free world, and apart from missing our lost in action friends and wondering what happens in their lives I don't care if they have one or one hundred log ins. But it must make work for misskool.

I don't think I ever said much about my life anyway so no loss there. Too guarded.

Not sure how long I have been away, a year maybe since I found my new love. Basically writing longer versions of the same old crap I used to do on here.

I'm now making more or less a dollar a day.

Sound good? Useless? Well, it's a glimmer of a possibility, no more than that.

Thing is. I couldn't do both. Not enough time.

But a grand farewell would have been silly.

I've had two windscreen claims in two years and whilst I still have to shop around, It hasn't affected the premiums. I'd use the insurance co.

thanks all. we'll check policy tomorrow. I'm not sure this will apply to somehting smashed in such error as opposed to a chip front windscreen? But worth checking certainly!
