Mine was slighty just past that though :rotfl::rotfl:
Thats definately a sign of not enough fluid. If you are leaving it for over 8hrs try using just the warm setting, also if you are just cooking for 2 & not filling the dish up try doing double quantities as it will take it longer to get going, you can always freeze whats left & reheat another day. I find casseroles tend to produce a lot of liquid from the vegetables so dont burn or over thicken. I always cram veggies up to the top of the dish as they shrink back alot when cooked too.0 -

I found REDBUSH tea (sometimes known as rooibos)
It is On offer at Ts for 84p for 40 bags. Try it. You won't look back. It reminds me a little of earl grey.
It gives the same satisfaction as a real cuppa and you can add the sugar n milk. It is naturally decaf without processing. It also has amazing health benefits.
I challenge you to try it and report back here!!!

Good evening all,
Mixed day for me today
I finally found a boots with the shots so i got myself 12 with some cheap and some expensive vitamins as those were the ones i buy anyway, so i was really happy with that.:j:j
and then on to t's......:mad:
for those of you who remember me posting a few days ago about previously getting dtd refunded to me in 2 transactions for the difference and finding out i had only received the 1 payment back....:eek: well it has finally been sorted and after 4 calls to HO, 4 calls to store, 1 to my bank,1 to visa a 40 mile round trip to the store and i was turned away and told i had to wait 28 days bla bla bla........ anyway friday i got a call back from the store and i was asked to go all the way back to get my refund again as somewhere my second payment was stopped by t's as they thought it was a mistake and i was to ask for the person dealing with my claim and i would be personally seen, so today i got there and no one wanted to come and speak to me:mad:, the girl on CS desk was told over the phone to give me a refund and thats that!!
Firstly I had to walk around the store to go find the product i was overcharged on in the first place..... i told to girl that i felt very disappointed with the way i was being treated and that i was supposed to be seeing someone to at least be given an apology from them.:o ( i was told by HO that i should be receiving a gesture of good will as compensation for all my trouble and petrol costs for my now 2nd 40mile round trips just to get my own money!! but all i wanted was for them was to say sorry and admit that they hadnt dealt with me properly!!)
So when we got back to CS desk the girl phoned someone and told me to wait so i did, The girl then sorted out my refund ( At last)
I stood there waiting a little while when a woman in office clothes came to speak to me and OMG her attitude was terrible !!!:eek: she was totally peeved that i was having the nerve to bother her and was like You've had our money what do you want!! I couldnt believe the way she was being like total attitude with arms folded and head wobbling lol
I told her that i was very disappointed that after all the trouble ive had to get my own money and i was asked to come back today and no one was willing to come and even speak to me...... She was like well what do you mean?? and i had to point out to her that she wasnt coming down initially and i had to tell someone how unhappy i was and they had to ask her down! I started to tell her all of what had happened but she just stopped me dead and went " I know All about it and as far as we are concerned you were paid it wasnt our fault that the second transaction was stopped and we investigated it and looked and your bank details and you've been given OTHER refunds from Tesco's!!!
I was gobsmacked! I said yes i did but it was in another store for a total different product and amount! (I felt like she was trying to insinuate that i have been doing some dodgy dealing here)
She was just totally peeved that i was bothering her.....I said to her cant you see where i'm coming from??? you failed to give me back my own money ive had to do all this running around (named every call and visit to store again) I said if it was the other was around and i hadnt paid them money then i would have the police at my store and be prosecuted but all she's done to me is give me grief and attitude!! i did mention to her about what HO said about a gesture of goodwill to cover my costs and I should have an apology so she scowled at me and said well Im sorry you didnt get your money but as far as we are concerned we paid you so i will give you £5 on a gift car and that is more than enough to cover your petrol!! I just looked at her stunned and before i knew it she had rung it up and shoved it at me...... I did take it and walked out of the store in disbelief..
I walked back to the car as my OH was waiting for me and told him all what happened i was quite annoyed then thinking about it and thought i should have just walked out when she shoved the gift card at me and not taken it as IMHO it was an insult really Gggrrrrr :mad:
I'm still annoyed now writing this, i hope you can understand where i'm coming from as i'm not sure i'm getting this out properly lolHello my name is nahteb20 and i am a T's Glitch & Bargainaholic.......0 -

Anyone watching secrets of a shoplifter on channel 4?
:eek::eek::eek:
First bloke telling us how easy it is he's done it for years...um think about it pal you are on national TV , not sure you'll be doing it anymore you spanner!!:D:D:D
no , but soon will be .
I was standing in the door way of T's just before Christmas , as usual I was waiting for Snap Ant to come through the tills when a guy with a trolley laden with electrical items , all posh food , bottles of champagne , bottles of brandy , chocolates came through the security scanners and the sirens went off .....he pushed the trolley towards me and ran off into the distance , if it wasn't for a guy that works there returning from his fag break who noticed him the ' perp ' would have made off with the goods no problem . The guy who stopped him later told me the contents of the trolley was £1400 .
:eek:I was young once , now I get older all the time .0
