    i burnt my bread (bread pudding to be exact):mad::mad::mad:

    i came home from flour hunting to find the fire brigade/paramedics on my doorstep:eek::eek::eek: the police had broken down the door to get in.


    i had put a bread and butter pudding in the oven, and as it took 50mins to cook, thought that is plenty of time to go looking for some flour. but i got distrated and went to several tescos hunting the normal white flour,and for a walk all the promanade and completly forgetting about my bread and butter pudding. 3 hours later i come home :o. my smoke alarms were going off and as my neighbour couldnt get a response from me, and my mobile was at home charging (she knows i am a diabetic) called the fire brigade/paramedic, thinking i had collasped from chocolate overdose :o the kitchen was very smokey :rotfl: but nothing damaged. i need a new pudding tin though. any glitches on them would be good mr.t!!!

    just waiting for the locksmith and chippy to arrive. glad its a sunny warm day. have to have the windows open to let the smell of burnt bread and butter pudding out. i did offer the pudding to the fire men when i gave them a cuppa, but for some reason they refused it:(


    my new mantra.
    i do not need any more bread flour
    oh well at least the neighbours had some excitement today

    Oh my goodness Im glad everyones ok. We all get so distracted at times. I ma the worst time keeper !

    MMW , I guess as long as theres no damage and your insurance will cover any damge there is then you certainly got off lightly .
    Good on your neighbours tho' as you could have easily suffered a chocolate collapse and inhaled all those bread & butter fumes .
    Glad all is ok .

    Just mixed some ciabatta bread and it was sticking all over my hands so got the hand mixer out and it's burnt itself out after a minute :eek:

    Only got it a month or 2 ago, oh well that's going back to Asda :(

    Take the Sada refund and buy yourself a bread maker ,they do a nice 700/900g one in T's .(38 sobs)
    Also Lidl have one on offer this week ..about 35 sobs .

    I've just checked my spending analysis tool on my online bank account.......and can't believe how much I've spent on groceries so far this month....
    For a family of 4 (although DD isn't always here!) plus the dog......the princely sum of £60.74 :T:T:T

    Wow! I salute you, that's amazing! :T:T:T

    mymerrywidow so glad you are ok, what a shock to go back to. Hope the smell does not linger for too long, my mum had a chip pan fire years ago and a fresh lick of paint was needed to get rid of smell. It's surprising how much damage smoke can do. Hope yours was caught early enough just to have a good airing. :)

    i have problems sleeping through and I'm in my 50's . :)
    I'm sure it will sort itself out as your sleep deprivation can take it's toll .
    Good Luck

    just been looking at the best way to use these and from what i can make out its something like

    utterly butterly BOGOF with the £1 off voucher = £0.80 for 2
    black and greens eastereggs BOGOF £1off voucher = £3.50 for 2
    galaxy cake bars BOGOF with £1 off voucher = £1.60 for 4

    galaxy bars work out the best deal really just 40 pence a pack of five hope this helps someone :) will look at the other vouchers see if there is anything else than can be had. i have tested these deals on tescos website and some in store will now stock up before the 25 :) dont forget the free ciabatta bread mix to be had already started stocking up on them.

    The utterly butterly is not on offer now , the best deal I can see for margarine is buy the 1kg clover, use the coupon and do a price match.
    £3 - £1 coupon -£1 price match = £1
    :(
