Quick Questions on ANYTHING Old Style 3 (See first post for links to other threads)

Not sure if I'm asking in the right place but I've cleared out OH's wardrobe and have jumpers etc that I think will be fine for resale in a charity shop but can I ask how other OSers dispose of clothes that I consider wouldn't be suitable for resale, particularly uniform shirts/ trousers/ jumpers with logos on? Thanks for any advice.

Wondering if anyone can help please? Just made a batch of white bread dough (enough for 2 loaves) and forgot to add the salt. I've just mixed it and started to knead it by (by hand).

Can I add it somehow? Or what will happen if I leave it? I have some sliced bread in freezer I can use for tomorrow so happy to use the dough for something else. Only ever made bread/rolls so not sure what else I can make.

TIA

Random question here. I've just accidentally broken 3 eggs which I wasn't going to use - for how long could I keep them for in a lock and lock box in the fridge?

Thanks in advance,

sorry not sure but I know you can freeze eggs (without the shell) if that's any help- never done it myself though have froze omlettes before.

our council collect any textiles with our recyling. ask a charity shop if they do the same? some get money for general textiles or rags. or a charity bin that takes clothes - same reason.

Thanks savingqueen. I asked in my local BHF shop today and they said that they go through anything received and will recycle textiles as you said. (I was once in a charity shop when a volunteer showed a pair of tatty jeans to everyone present in the shop with the comment: "you wouldn't believe the rubbish some people send!" Maybe those people thought that they would be recycled, it's certainly made me think twice.:o

ds1 is making fish pie and so it has to not only be easy but fail-proof. he has already got a pack of mixed pieces of fish designed for making a pie but no prawns so is going to buy these seperate. i have googled on here but there are so many, some saying only 4 ingredients needed! others alot more indepth and way too many ways to mess it up. so i told him i would ask my fellow mse people as i am sure you will be able to share some of your recipes with me. he is going to sainsburys in morning for ingredients for that and a meringue recipe that i am crossing my fingers for him it turns out. thanks in advance

any reason?

I just think if you're trying to KISS (Keep It Simple, Stoopid!) you don't need the prawns. Also, unless you KNOW the rest of the party like prawns, they're the kind of thing people DON'T like, even if they like fish ...

Hi
I am thinking of making a mince meat pie( a savoury one) for tea tonight, how long in advance can i make it, could i make the pastry now and assemble it ready for the oven later or would it get a soggy bottom?
Thanks
