    When I was about 6 I was on through the windows on playschool twice - does that mean anything to anyone?!

    Brings back memories.

    Silver is approximately halfway between Michaels and me.

    I think that's right.

    Dishwasher: you definitely need the salt in the dishwasher, I thought those 5 in 1 tablets were a bit of a con, if you do a low temperature economy wash the tablet doesn't dissolve completely.

    It is quite obvious you have not yet tasted one of my cakes. I think doozer's dh might give me half that sum for one brownie.:D


    There is a moment dh calls the brownie moment. It occurs just a few seconds, maybe half a minute if the person has particularly blunt taste buds, after they bite into one of my brownies. They make a noise that could eminate from the bedroom as easily as the tea table....and stop chewing for a second while they register the delight of what is in their mouths.

    Small moment of intense pleasure, more chocolatey than chocolate, as tender In the mouth than a lovers tongue....... So, not the cheapest brownies to make, but probably among the best.:D


    The weird thing.....i don't even like brownies that much:rotfl:

    All sounds rather erotic :eek:

    Salt is for the softener not the water. The tablets do have some built in softener but not enough and obviously it isn't in the rinsing water hence the deposits if the softener is not topped up.

    We have softened water in the house except the kitchen cold supply. There is an old hot supply for the washing machine and I am thinking of using this for the dishwasher supply instead of the cold feed but will probably only switch it over when we run out of dishwasher salt.

    It doesn't really matter but viva and I are probably the other way round (plus on the same latitude) FC is in SE London. For some reason I thought MsK was in Kent? DN not quite so far west, lir a bit south and a fraction east and so on. CarolT a bit E of me, NDG central London, sjpink south coast and west, wageslave never knew, Generali, off the map etc

    I have never met any NP but you have all seen me - although to be fair we did have the photo night a while back.
    I think....

    Haha...I thought about an avatar map also, but as some NP's don't have one and it would become quite messy around London, I went for just names. :D


    Who is that Isle of Man chap? ;)


    Looks like I'm way up there by myself though wageslave is/was within 80 miles I think.
