2oz flour
½oz fat
pinch salt .....thats the savoury version

The sweet version I do is

4oz flour
2oz mash
1oz fat
pinch salt

Sounds nice what do you put in it ?

Can anyone help?

You know in the Tesco garages you can pick up the Tesco finder map things.
Well there isn't really an online version. I actually want the map with the pin points on.
I know there is a store finder where you enter a location but I like to see how they all relate to each other so I can do a route!! Or at least that's the idea.

My local geography is appalling. I would like to visit a new one once in a while as my locals are inundated with friends of martins and hukd. Not that I mind of course but I am dreaming of untouched stores waiting to be discovered.....

There is a Tesco right next to me JJ, while you are there feel free to bring cakes will pay for them haha. Also I haven't tried boots glitch either.

Brand I text you earlier Hun hope you get it.

Morning well afternoon all. Had a bad nights sleep first words to OH when he tried to wake me up were eff off :P oops. Hope everyone is ok and keeping warm this chilly day

:eek: i had a message this morning telling me a post i put on last night about being disapointed that portmerion pottery was made in England could come across as offencive, and anti english so if i offended anyone i am very sorry it was not against english just that you expect somthing to be made where it is named after not hundreds of miles away.
i shall sit on the naughty step ( not to bad am sitting with HC, )

Oh please! I didn't take offence at it, most people knew you meant you were disappointed because Portmeirion isn't made in Portmeirion! Whoever's making this daft complaints, LIGHTEN UP!!

Thanks kadison, I did Business Studies for A level and would give my all to it if I started up a business. I would absolutely love it. I just don't have enough confidence in my work, when you see for example the cakes on the home-made cake thread etc etc... Plus I've got something my Father said to me in my head all the time 'Nobody would ever pay for YOUR cakes, it's just a stupid idea' (This was when I was asked by my Aunty to make 100 cupcakes for my cousin's engagement. Nothing was mentioned about money but I was talking to my Mum before we left and found out that my Aunty had offered to pay for them or if not to atleast cover the expense and my Mum had refused. It had taken me hours to make them, they were all uniform and IMO professional looking. I burny my arm something rotten and then my Father tipped up a whole tray of them the night before so I had to make another batch. It wasn't that I wanted the money for them necessarily, it would have just been nice to know that they were worth paying for.

Yes kadison you're right, I'll go and adjust my post accordingly. I didn't realise that they grouped the vitamins in price and only found ou by reading Caz's explanation on the main thread. But thank you for re-iterating kadison and anyone that read my post....ignore it! SORRY!

Re the first one, my counsellor told me a great mantra "Feelings are not facts", just because your dad thought your cakes weren't worth paying for doesn't make it a fact, and what a mean thing to say! Your aunt obviously thought a lot of your baking, so ignore the negative comments from your dad xx

Re Boots, I only remembered because I pay great attention to this process while buying from the 3 for 2 offers at xmas time

BOOTS GLITCH STILL WORKING TODAY.

the shots were stickered at half price. did not think glitch would work because of this. so i asked an assistant if i could pay full price for them. she must have thought i was stupid. anyway she said are you sure, and removed the stickers. her face was a picture when total came up on till.
i got one lot yesterday and 2 lots today. all in all i got £2-£3 off my shopping three times. also got a £5 voucher for no7. terms are good on that as i can get something for £5 without having to buy anything else.
i should add i got in lots of 6

You looney! Why didn't you just remove the stickers?

Because that would be fraud. You can't tamper with the price labels yourself.
