Gonna sit here in the corner of the G&B bar with my glass of cono sur red if thats ok, its quiet tonight though. After spending the day cleaning the house and the OVEN and planning a day baking cookies and MB cupcakes with dd tomorrow, I went to heat a cottage pie up at dinner time and the fcuking oven isn't heating :eek:. Looking online it seems the element may have gone!!! No chance of getting it fixed before Christmas now....thankful I have a slow cooker for meat but no roasties :mad:. And dh just commented this morning as to how calm and organised I am this year. So it seems I can join the night shift tonight with my wine and not have to worry about getting up early in the morning :beer:

Whisky - Glenmorangie/Glenlivit, in fact, any malt. Just not Laphroig, I live it, but it is very peaty/salty and isn't to everyones taste.

Hows about a wee Bladnoch 15 non chill, down to my last bottle an a half but its one heck of a dram.


An I know what ya mean about the Laghroig but I usually give friends a thimble of Ardbeg before letting them try the L and they usually appreciate the taste and start to notice the difference.

No don't feel guilty. I put all my through ss and had other shopping in the trolley. What I do is whack whatebers glitching through as quick as I can and pay for that bit first. Then they can't take them off you as you've paid. Then I carry on with the rest

I like your style Nikki I must remember to do this.

I 'found' a load of 1p sweeties today (Little Miss Scary) and I was scanning 4 of these then some regular stuff ... then another four ... more regular ... four more etc. But I suppose by doing this I'm just prolonging the agony

Halogen ovens are cheap and can do roasties (if you can find one in stock so close to xmas)

However, if money is a problem, I believe that Sainsbobs have 2 x 1 litres of spirit for £26

Thanks for this info 3Dogs ... just remembered that I have loads of Nectar points. Been collecting for years and never redeemed them :j

Right ... I hope I don't wake anyone up but I'm gonna run a bath and have a soak ... well it is nearly Christmas!

Oooh never thought of that, thanks. Was gonna try and clean the top oven tomorrow (only used as a grill and smoky when oven mode is turned on) but now I have an excuse to go shopping again :beer:

My oven died just before Christmas a few years back and I got a cheap combination microwave oven (from Asda I think) to tide me over. Not huge but it's still going and quite often use it for cooking/heating small bits ... cheaper(?) than heating a large oven. HTH
