    good morning all....frosty, bright, no snow ....and no need to work outside!

    Yet another delicious bucket of food arrived from S&H, done at school [!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!}

    A lasagne this time!...bit thick on the pasta....bit greasy on the filling, but not too bad....certainly more digestible than last week's pie!

    I have decided to give his edible offerings a 'Gaviscon' rating!

    No glugs = restaurant standard.

    One glug = maccydee's standard.

    Two glugs..[normal dosage in one hit]...EXOH's standard...

    Three glugs = 'very nice dear', through gritted teeth standard.

    Four glugs = 'I'll freeze the rest' and bin when no one's looking standard...

    Five glugs is 'next day off work' standard...

    Six glugs is '999' standard.....

    I have long since come to the conclusion regarding our children's school cookery efforts, that an unspoken-of part of parenting is trying to avoid food poisoning in the 'nicest possible way', to avoid crushing the little one's pride in their offerings...?
    No, I don't think all other drivers are idiots......but some are determined to change my mind.......

    Love the Gaviscon ratings, Alastair, but you didn't tell us what the rating was for the lasagne :D
