you could brush the top with beaten egg and then sprinkle a wee bit of sugar on the top :-)

I dont have any eggs either! Actually I don't think I even have a rolling pin. :think:

altojack, one thing to be aware of on laptops which I wasn't till recently is that, for the ones with an Intel processor, the second generation processors are better than the first generation ( or so the boys tell us). Both are currently in the shops.

Just skimmed through the last 30 pages or so, havent been on since yesterday morning so good afternoon everyone
Firstly hope those who are feeling poorly are feeling better soon
Nikki congrats to your son, you must be so proud!!
Thanks to those for your messages regarding kids granda, funeral is tomorrow......just wish it was over for them both. Took them out to the house last night, DS was so mature about everything, was very proud of how he handled all the visitors so well even though I knew it was killing him. DD was fine until she saw her wee nanny, she ran from the room and I found her in her bedroom there bawling, she said she couldnt handle it and wanted to leave and not go to the funeral:(. Managed to get her calmed and one of her aunts came and cuddled her as well. Her dad tried to help but hes falling apart too. Its as well I have a decent relationship with the ex and his family as she wouldnt leave my side. Dunno how she'll be tomorrow but Im not planning on much sleep tonight, ended up in her bed with her for a while last night! Its weird cuddling a 15 yr old whos taller than me, like a baby but they both are my babies no matter how big or old they are, just wish I could help with their pain. Sorry for the long post and being completely o/t but needed to share with someone

My DS was like this when DH died in April. We had to stay in my mums because the forensics team had to do their work in our house so we couldn't stay there. DS has his own room in their house but wouldn't leave my side and stayed like that for weeks afterwards even when we got back into our house he tried to sleep all night in my bed, I let him stay if he came in the early morning but even now he still comes to me early in the morning but isn't as clingy as he once was.
It should get better but I found it helped DS to talk about the happy/funny times we'd had eventhough it hurt me so much to do this it helped him. He still has a few times when he'll be weird with people but it's getting better.
So sorry for your loss and hope your DD feels up to going tomorrow. I'll be thinking about you all xx

Thanks spiralingdown, and glad you and ds are getting better, dunno how you coped with losing dh and looking after ds. When I lost my dad, kids were only 2 and 7 and I just couldnt have them around me so thankfully ex looked after them and was great about it, they were too young to even know what was happening. This is the first close family member they have had to deal with losing in an adult way. DS has spent a lot of time with his friends(one of which lost his granny on Boxing day) so they are supporting him brilliantly and are all wonderful young men but dd just isnt interested in her friends. Theyve been texting her looking to help but she just wants to be with me! Trying to convince her to go to her youth group tomorrow after the funeral as I think it would do her the world of good and she is considering it but we'll see. Just spent a few hours talking with her and going through photos (not that I have many as been divorced from her dad for many years) but I think its helped. Just hate seeing my kids in pain

Found some of the Upscaling DVD players for £13 (model HDMISS10, other model is £26+) Can I ask what is so great about them & is it worth getting one?

Yes it is. Fab little box, clear sound & if you have HDMI even better
