    Yes! Two semi finals and then the final. It goes semi final (day off) semi final (day off) final. The second semi final I think will clash with the UK viewing of the final of American Idol, so I will have a lot of TV going down here that night that nobody approves of.
    I've no idea when that is, I don't watch American Idol either. As a rule of thumb, the Americans are worse singers than the Brits.... and the bad ones of theirs aren't as entertaining as our bad ones.

    Hi CK, I thought you'd be busy with Eurovision. I've been reading up about all the singers and can't wait to see the semi finals. Sigh #imsadandiknowit

    Having said that.... just flicking through to see what's on and it appears to be the final of Britain's Got Talent. Now, I've not actually seen any of the programmes ... it started an hour ago and has 1.5 hours to run. I might give it 10 minutes of my time, see if I get into it ... or want to flick through the channels some more.

    Semi finals? Eh?

    You mean there's more going on than "the night"... whenever that is? Sounds awful!

    I really really really want Sab to win, and she's one of the big 6 this year, so alls good.

    She's really really easy going!

    Go onto YouTube, look at 'Marification1' and watch the Georgianone (Starting from 2010). Beside the Georgian, it's much better!
    ... aaaand.... what is it?

    Brallaqueen, i prefer skimmed milk too. I buy that for me, we get the other sort from the cow. (which means visitors get skimmed because i cannot serve unpasturised milk) . I like cream, but not in my milk. Its a shame because full fat milk is actually not a high fat food.

    Not only is it not high fat, it is technically low fat going on the definition that supermarkets seem to use (<5% fat).

    I heart full fat milk, especially on cocopops. Yum.

    Skimming the fat off removes a lot of the vitamins from milk as they are fat soluble (esp. B vitamins if I recall correctly). Skimmed milk is basically water with a bit of protein floating around in it. Rubbish.

    I want to try unpasteurised milk, does it taste better?

    UHT milk lasts for 6-9 months, unopened, no real excuse not to have some in stock.
