Also Lidl have one on offer this week ..about 35 sobs .

I got a bread maker but wanted to try it by hand

Oh I just thought, I could have mixed it in the bread maker then put it in the oven

Morning all! I think I will never be able to keep up!! Had 30 pages to read this morning, gave up after 10 Im afriad!

Sad day for me today - one of my best friends wrote on Facebook her husband died this morning. Their kids are 18 and 11 I want to go and console her but feel I will make her worse! I really dont handle death very well! I had a half brother die when I was 12, my dad died when I was 16 and my mum when I was 23 (as well as others like we all do) and I just dont seem to cope with it too good.

(On a slightly different note - is it just me or does it seems facebook is the way to find out bad news! Three weeks ago my family decided to tell me on facebook my grandmother had died. No wonder most phone providers are happy doing unlimited texts for cheap - no one texts anymore they all write it on a status on facebook instead!)

I think its probably the easiest way of letting people know and also there is the added pressure that someone else will write something on their wall & someone else will be offended that they havent heard from someone closer yada yada. Im not sure its the right way to let people know but if it happened to me I'd probably just take the easiest route, stuff what everyone else thinks.

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 . 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 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

OMG!!! Your so calm & cool MMW, I take my hat off to you! I'd be in bits! Hope everything can be easily fixed/cleaned, smoke damage is a pain!

I was thinking of doubling up too but unsure of cooking times doing that....anyone any ideas?

Has anyone made the parmesan and sun-dried toms one yet? Sounds scrummy!

Whatever the size a loaf of bread is done when you turn it over & tap the bottom with your knuckles & it sounds hollow.

Just in mid flow writing an important letter & some woman on the phone about the Digital Switchover thing, the most rude bullying person I have ever had the misfortune to speak to :mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I said "we were still looking at the options & had agreed we would phone them back at a later date."

No she said "You've made your choice I want to book an appointment"

so I said Oh no we haven't, I said. "Is it true that it can in fact be done after the switchover date?" "Yes" she muttered but you'll lose channels. "But I was told as long as we have 5 channels now we'll be okay & we can sort out the other stuff at a later date?" "Yes" she muttered under her breath. So I told her we would ring them when we had decided. I guess she has targets to get the appointments filled.

I'm thinking despite this scheme thing it might be cheaper to do it ourselves unless we decide on free sat.

I'm terrible in those situations I am banned from funerals I could cry at an empty box & get more upset than the chief mourners. I was talking to a friend of a friend once who I didn't know too well, she was telling me about her dog who had died I few months earlier next thing I was in floods of tears & she was consoling me!

Perhaps send her a text & a sympathy card, visit her after the funeral all the fuss & attention will be over and she will be grateful for the company.

I'm exactly the same. I'll cry at someones funeral I didn't even know!
Last week whilst shopping in Totnes a funeral procession went past....with the funeral director walking in front of the hearse.
The whole town came to a standstill as it passed by and when I saw the big wreath saying "Grampy" I could feel my eyes brimming ......blimey, I'm doing it again now as I'm typing this....What a wally!

I'm just the same when I hear Carols at Christmas, yet I'm not at all religeous!

Is your son teething at all? I put my son through a sleepsense program, basically its a nice version of them crying it out. But end result his been sleeping through since he was 9 months. His 16mnow.

I never know what to do with those baby club vouchers. Are the bath times be on offer all week. I might grab some.

He's not visibly teething but I'm not 100% sure he's not. He's got quite a few teeth already. Gonna have a google of the sleepsense program. Thanks for the suggestion. He's quite light for his age (25 centile) and not really interested in snacking during the day but will generaly eat his meals. He has milk in the day but plays with it alot of the time. At night he can down 2 bottles and drinks it like he's desperately hungry. The HV says maybe he is still hungry in the night.

Johnsons bedtime bath on offer til 09/04. That's what my vouchers were for the 500ml one. Cost me £2.74 for two which isn't bad so as I had 2 vouchers I got 4. Had a £1.50 off huggies so used that on some pull ups for my little girl as they are half price at the mo so only cost me about £1.24. Annoyingly the 3.50 off a mega box of Pampers came just a week too late :rotfl:
