    Here you go FK,

    I've saved you one:

    Rphoto-77.jpg?t=1337180248


    Pork chops with lemon and mint couscous (first time I've picked mint this year:j) and fresh ginger yoghurt.
    Very healthy and clean tasting. :)

    Cost:
    93p whoopsied chops,
    Mint free
    Lemon 5p
    Couscous around 40p worth
    Fresh ginger was 4p for about 5 roots which were whoopsied. I used half a root so less than a penny's worth,
    Yoghurt was 5 big pots for a quid. I used a third of a pot so about 7p worth.
    Cumin was about 2p worth (I bulk buy from Asian shops)

    Around £1.50 for 4 servings = 38p per serving:j:T
    :A Every moment is a gift. That's why we call it the present.!:A

    With the new price flops there is a £1 off apples and a £1 wys £5 on fruit could these two be used together to get £2 off the £5 spend? Would this work ?

    I've just got some fish cakes out of the freezer but I don't know what to have with them?


    I don't like fishcakes but my DH does. He has them with chips and about half a jar of the basics curry sauce poured over them then adds salt and vinegar
    I think it's disgusting.....but he loves it :rotfl:
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    Hi everyone....

    Wrote the longest message...and then it deleted it all when I clicked submit:eek:

    Anyway reason for posting was to let you all know I heard back from dulux... This is their offer to me:

    3x2.5L of our Dulux Quick Drying Gloss
    4x500ML of Polycell Liquid Sanding
    2x5L of Dulux Endurance Matt

    & a cheque for£50.00 as goodwill gesture.This offer is made as a gesture of goodwill, with no admission of liability and in full and final settlement of any matter in relation to the product.

    Anyway I kindly declined and asked for £500 cash to pay for new gloss paint (ovibously not dulux own brand as it is carp!!) as well as going towards decorating costs getting it all redone.

    This is the replacement paint they were trying to fob me off with (readthe reviews:eek:):

    Yes dulux...would love to replace my allready sh*t paint, with even sh*tt*er paint!!!! :mad::mad::mad:

    Have emailed them saying I am more than happy taking them to a small claims court and going back to watchdog so lets see what they say now.....

    Right im off to catch up! x

    I'd have mashed potatoes and peas or
    Cook some rice and add any frozen veg and chopped mushrooms to the rice water with about 5 mins to go.
