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.

That was something I felt strongly about and we only had 4 channels with a signal that left a lot to be desired until couple of weeks ago when first stage of switchover happened for us (great signal for BBC so kept fingers crossed), final stage happened today and I could not be happier. All it cost me was the price of a tv with freeview built in. Final retune today has left us with brilliant pictures. No new aerial, I did find a page on the text pages of my tv before switchover that show a lot of white boxes and if you can see these ok with none missing means that you should be ok with your current aerial to pick up the digital signal. Got details from the switchover website. HTHs

tigerwhite when do you find out what you are having?

The day he/she pops out :rotfl:
Decided not to find out again, want a surprise and hope the anticipation will keep me going through labour! Had my 12 wk scan last week and was told I'm a month further on. So due 27th Aug. got yet another blood test in half an hour

All you need is an aerial ( I assume you have one already) and a freeview box , i bought one for £10.
What was she trying to sell you ?

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

This made me laugh :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:...you're also having a bad morning... sounds as if you got a good neighbour. Were the fireman hunky?...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

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 was typing that, glad to know its not only me

Definitely not just you. I cry at the sight of those in mourning. Even if I don't know the deceased very well, the sight of the spouse or family moves me to tears.

It is called empathy. Someone once described empathy as 'Your pain in my heart' and I think it is quite apt.

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

I made them, they were gorgeous and I'm going to do them again on Friday. Made rolls though instead of a loaf. I only got 9 out of the mix, not 12 as the packet suggested. It was great seeing them rise after 40 mins (sad, I know!). I'm even more sad by admitting but I roughly weighed each roll to be about 80g so they would all be a bit more uniform in size. Who said "OCD":rotfl:
