    marvellousaunt have you noticed you're never off duty now aswell?



    Like when you go shopping as a civvy you still look for things out of place. You observe staff with customers, and you are always looking at name badges. I'm always asking for receipts aswell these days.

    I do that all the time. Basic questions such as time I wait, how tidy it is, gaps in stock as well as looking at name badges are hard wired into the brain.
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    Silly question time. When you pay a bill as a counter transaction at your own bank, do you need a cheque book, or do they just debit it from your account?

    I never usually pay bills at the bank, but I have a 'counter transaction' job to do, and I can't find my cheque book!

    You mean you don't still have Betty Crocker pancake mix from Tesco DTD days?

    How about making meringues with your egg whites? Lovely with strawberries & cream.

    Pamcakes are eggs, flour and milk, as are yorkshire puddings. I use my eggs for carbonara - cream, bacon, eggs and cheese; quiche - pastry filled with beaten eggs, milk and bacon; cakes - flour, eggs, sugar and butter; omlettes obviously; scotch eggs - boiled eggs wrapped in sausage meat and breadcrumbs; cookies - the soft chewy ones, peanut butter are my favourite; melting middle chocolate pudding - melt a 100g bar dark chocolate and 1/2 pack butter, mix with 2 eggs and 2 tbsp flour, put in ramekins and bake for 10 mins; frittata/spanish omlette there's loads of stuff :)

    Oh, I like to cook by the way

    No egg shops for me - been looking through last financial years paperwork and amazed at how the fee has dropped. Shame as my 6 ex batts have very firmly decided not to pop a single egg in the last month.

    I am only doing a few this time, the local ones to me.

    I used to do 8 or 9 of these in a day, and I would travel to new cities for them!

    Why do we have to remember the capital M Money Maker? ;)
