ageandjo,

What sort of things is he interested in?

Seems to me anything that cost a lot of money:rolleyes:
Think we will go to the science musem, I think I will enjoy that too:T I have been on the London eye at night I think it was quite expensive but I will treat him to that if he wants to go on it.

I love going up Roman Road in Bow if the market is still up there, do you know??
Thank you

Thanks catowen, do you keep a copy of your answers if you send off the results online? I tend to just have most stuff wrote on a piece of paper and fill in the form and return it, but never think to keep a hard copy!! Luckly i have founf my scribbles from that shop so can remember what i put.!!LOL

:eek: *sharp intake of breath!!!* and just when I was beginning to like you as well *sighs*

*note to self: Next trip to Gullivers ... drive on by*

I luuuurve ferrero rocher :drool: :drool: :drool:

Well, between bobbing in and out of here, and I do mean bobbing (!), I've at least succeeded in making meatloaf (combi micro) a huge beefy casserole (SC) which will break down into a few different recipes. I'm just so pleased I got those foil freezer containers from the Pound Shop, real blessing! Some of the SC beef will go into making up some pies, some will be a cobbler and yet another lot will be topped with mash for a chunky thatched beef meal.

Joke is ... haven't a clue what *we're* having for tea tonight!! :rotfl: Tomorrows taken care of because d12yo has Food Tech at school so we'll eat his offerings.

OMG!!! My first *real* proper job was in Roman Road, Bow!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: Let us know if the market is still there and if it's worth a visit ... might find the time to take the lads and point out old haunts (like they'll be interested!! NOT! :rotfl: )

Well I forced myself to walk round to the charity shop with my fling items - and got a new pair of Timberland trainers in there for ds1 for....£5! Bless him, I don't think he'll recognise the label but I expect that some others in his class will and they have a 1 week residential coming up at the beginning of March...

Should be knitting a birthday present for my goddaughter (postponed from Christmas) but couldn't resist telling you about my bargain:j

:rotfl: :rotfl: so true. I love most chocolate. Only things I'm not madly keen on (but of course will eat if they're around) are Ferrero Rocher and Mini Eggs. So ..... what does everybody buy me? Of course Ferrero Rocher at christmas and for birthdays and Mini Eggs at easter. Never yet brought myself to throwing them though. :eek:

I have "hidden" a couple of boxes of FRs in the dresser in the dining room and so far I haven't gone for them.

Kitchen cupboards are no good for hiding from myself cos I'm always in and out of them.

Oooops I've just realised in amongst all the flying that I forgot to put tonights tea in the slow cooker

DH is at work until 9.30 so I might stick it on now and feed the kids something else.

I always print out a copy of the questionaire, for my own records. I take it with me, but fill it in once ive left the MS place, and then when i get home i put those results into the computer. I then attach the receipt to it, and keep them in case they come back to me for any other details. Ive been MSing since last March, and ive kept all my assignments, not sure why (the companies say keep for 6 months) but they might come in handy when i go to do my tax return in April.


Queenie - i also love Forerro rocher, i got loads for xmas, but because im being good re my diet, ive hidden them away for later!!!!

Just made a lovely miso based soup, added brown rice and leftover veg from last night and it was really tasty. Got the idea from watching what Dirk was eating on BB! sad aren't I?:D

DD just phoned, she has had another allergic reaction to fruit, this time cherries, last time was apples, she can eat them cooked but not raw anymore. Thank goodness she had her anti histamines on her! She is ok now but off to make drs appointment. Anyone else had this problem? Just when we were all starting healthy diets! Poor girl!

Must see what I can find on the internet!
