Noooooo, gloss paint on woodwork is just wrong! It's sooooo eighties! Wood should be stained.

Hiya HC.

My own staircase is stained and varnished. But that was new so easy enough.

On existing painted woodwork, expensive labor bill to burn off all the paint...

Could someone with a Windows computer see if the Megabus site is working for them. I get to the point of filling in where and when and when I click search journeys it freezes up on me.

Working fine for me as well xxx

I get the big bags of onions from my local Indian supermarket, also the garlic is very cheap too as its sold by the kilo, works out 6-8p per head of garlic, same with coriander 5 big bunches for £1, I eat at least 2 onions a day I love them

Wow. Yours is cheaper than mine. Mine does 3 bunches of coriander for a quid.
I have resolved to stock up once a month at least.
Yogurt is even better value. 5 huge tubs of live yogurt for a quid!!!!

Gonna be using some of it up in a mo. We are having whoopsied pork chops, spicy cous cous and ginger yogurt on the side as I have a quantity of fresh ginger root to use up (whoopsied of course!)

I'm so sad! I get thrilled with trying new recipes. Looking forward to trying out this one from the good food website.

I really need to get out more!:o

I just had to shout 'NOM'.

I have just had my first ever bowl of French onion soup and it was awesome!
Who'd believe something so simple could be so nice!

What a great way to use up my 15 kilos of onions on!!!

Ever wondered where "Om nom nom nom" came from?

2 x 6pk Cornetto @ £2.59 each = £5.18
1 pk 6 Ribena lollies 85p

= £6.03 - £2 price flop coupon = £4.03
Jtd £2.18
£4.03 - £2.18 = £1.85 :T

What about this for the £2 off £6 ice cream and lollies voucher.

Buy 4 packs of tesco version of magnums - mintilicious, caramello, chocolatino, white or almond at £1.55 a pack.

Total £6.20
take off 2 for £2 multibuy = £2.20
take off £2 voucher

result £2 for 4 packs :T
