pumpkin pie mk II done. i burned a bit of my wrist getting the pastry case out of the oven.

sadly, i think Libby's is the best and i shall have to stock up next year.

Also made pumpkin bread but it's too gummy. Would have been ok had the recipe not made it the size of madagascar. I shall have to bring it to work and hope it gets eaten. so disappointing.

As a measure of how boring I am, I would have paused to don underwear, shoes, jeans and a coat.

Normally, so would I! I was incensed at the driver not stopping and hoping to get away with it that I completely forgot I was not suitably attired to be going outside and chasing trucks.

Plus, I think my gradual decline into a breakdown had already started, so I was in a delicate mental state (and I am sticking to that to save my blushes! :rotfl:)

What time of year is this theoretical chase at?

Not the warmest but then not the coldest either...I know I was pretty damned cold by the time I got back in, despite the coat now ex hubby had rushed out to me to cover my dignity.:D

i would have called the police and refused to go outside.

If I was indoors just wearing a nightie, that's what I would do too:D

Mine is about the same and it's £330 for the rubbish car I drive.

maybe i should get another car (well, it isn't going to pass the MOT with duck tape for the headlamp!) :rotfl:

I'd think about keeping it going a bit longer. Bangers are good value to run compared with newer cars.

Ah, then I wouldn't have been dressed. So I would have been running down the road wrapped in a blanket. And with my hair in a style some where between little mi of the moomins and that woman with the big voice from m people.

Short nighty equals dignified IMO from bed.

P-reg Citroen with duck tape may be pushing it. Especially when I don't know how to fix it.

Did you not read your horoscope.

It said don't go out or touch anything today, stay in bed.

Fortunately tomorrow is another day.

You should have read your car's horoscope.

I think it's at the back of the manual somewhere in one of the pages nobody can be bothered reading.:D

Too much coffee, not enough food yesterday.

Have thoroughly enjoyed this chat of chasing men whilst naked and the sodium vs calcium conundrum. Has no one done a posh alert for that yet?

My Version of the car is not girly. When I collected a family member from the station, he expected it to be driven by a pimp. For the record, I am not a pimp but my car is a bit pimped. I love, love, love it. I think i've always paid £5-600 for car insurance. I have to shop each year to keep it that low. Not that it's low. I found myself getting excited at the idea of being older so I pay less, then realised that is the worst possible reason to want to be older than I am.
