    Hi folks

    I read this thread regularly - it's great! - and felt I ought to delurk to say that I don't think Bedsit Bob's remark was meant in that way, but rather that he was commenting that GQ knows b******t when she reads it :)
    Fair point. In which case he is exonerated! I suppose it depends which way the words are emphasised. Still a reminder that this doesn't always transfer to the written medium :huh:

    There are a variety of ways of seeing off TV Licensing. And we all seem to agree that they should be seen-off.

    I don't see any need to be too prescriptive - it's interesting when someone comes along and does something different that works.

    Please take note of this proposed EU directive (imminent!) to restrict distribution of older/heirloom seeds and act accordingly

    I assumed that too - because she clearly does know how to distinguish b******t
    It doesn't matter if you are a glass half full or half empty sort of person. Keep it topped up! Cheers!

    *steps out from the shadows*

    Hi *waves*,

    I have been reading this thread for aaaages as my plan is to prep. I am the sort of person that goes to my lrp events with sewing kits, first aid kits, can and bottle openers...I even have a zombie survival plan (adapted to cope with far more likely scenarios of weather issues or NK hitting the button).

    I have shared the above article on my fb and I hope that it helps.

    *waves at Wyre and Ivyleaf* :D

    Well Pops I am really sorry hun sourdough is still on my to do list so I'm no help :( Will have a read up see if I can spot what might have happened,have you tried MrH's cobb loaf? It's really lovely and not too large for one,keeps well too,I think I posted the recipe on here somewhere..

    Have been a good girl and tidied up the raised bed a bit,cut some spinach and parsley for a veggie lasagne for dinner *yum*
    Peppers are from the garden which were the last of whats left in the freezer,onion was from the garden,cheese sauce mix from the stores as were the tinned toms and lasagne sheets.

    I'm going to make some kale chips later too as the last of the curly kale is starting to go over now sadly and this years plantings are not quite ready yet,I'll be ok as I haven't got to go out later..anyone who's ever eaten these will know what I mean,for those that haven't they take about 3 toothbrushes to get rid off afterwards :rotfl: but oh so nice to eat !

    I've never made sourdough but can give a recipe for soda bread - however I understand that's not quite the same thing :huh:
    Yesterday I make some bread using my just out of date Einkorn flour. Einkorn is an old form of wheat which is supposed to be more easily tolerated by those with a wheat or gluten sensitivity.
    It still had some explosive effects though :eek:
    That said, pineapple did gorge herself somewhat as it was scrummy :D
