    Has to be Birds Eye or Findus, crappy white bread and quality tomato sauce :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Wholemeal seeded bread.
    Hellmans mayonnaise (made with free-range eggs :D).

    Ooohh now I want one for supper :):):)

    I may have to use tartare sauce - with a dollop of mayo and on burgen seeded - I need to stop thinking of food. Just off to my diary to share my dinner details :)

    No. no, no. That's for fishCAKES, not fishFINGERS :).

    I'm off to California in June...

    Monday - fly out
    Tuesday - free day
    Wednesday & Thursday - all-day meetings
    Thursday evening - fly home
    Friday afternoon - arrive home

    :eek::eek::eek:

    I'm staying in a fancy hotel in Berkeley and, although tempted by the spa :D, I think I should spend the Tuesday sight-seeing in San Francisco. Does anyone have any must-visits or avoid-at-all-costs please?!

    Thanks,
    MWCx

    Mr MWC is away again (just for a night) so I had toast, yogurt and maltesers for dinner - I couldn't even be bothered to make a fishfinger sandwich :o

    That sounds just like one of my 'Mr F is away' dinners :rotfl:

    I have seedlings :j (just the Tuscan mix salad at the moment)

    I'm annoyed at Sainsburys about the price I paid for petrol this morning :mad: The big price sign wasn't working when I drove up but the price on the pump was 136.9p/L (so much for supermarkets reducing their petrol prices I thought - it was a penny dearer than the Shell garage :mad: - but I didn't have time to go elsewhere). In the time it took me to pay, get in the car and drive off, the big price sign was working again and advertising 134.9p/L :mad: It annoyed me every one of the 25 miles I drove to work and it's still annoying me now :mad::mad::mad:
