Rising to the top of the ocean - and staying afloat!

mmmm that's a point Banwa ..... I'm a bit annoyed at myself as I should've saved more posts at the start of my thread to put stuff like this in - I tend to find that they get lost otherwise ..... *sigh* will try to remember that if I ever start another diary!

Checking it every month is a great idea....

No probs at all WTFI it's this stuff

I was prescribed it when I was in hospital (had never heard of it before) and wasn't sure if you could get it without a prescription but looks like you can & not too expensive either:T Your local chemist may well keep it!

Thank you I will give that a try, will ask at the chemist/nurse to see if they will give a script at least then its paid for with my prepaid certificate If not I'll still give it a try :rotfl:

Darn it! mmmm that'll keep me occupied tonight:rotfl: with the cheese puffs (that I shouldn't eat)

Nosey nellie alert.
Why two bus funds Rising?

rising_from_the_ashes

*sigh*:o

Having a big debate about this one!:o

£54 would cover 2 weeks on the bus (£14 for local infrequent hideously early in the morning bus for 10 journeys & £40 for 10 journeys on the big hideously expensive national bus to come home)

It's a heck of a difference between £14 and £40 for traveling up the same 7.5 miles of tarmac!:mad:

So ... have enough for 2 weeks put aside but I'd really feel more comfortable having 4 weeks aside (as that's how long I ended up on the bus in the bad 2010 winter) ..... so that would be £108

BUT ... there's the fuel saving so this would be able to go towards it now I've got the fuel pot up and running :j

*sigh*

Thinking I may get rid of it and add the money to the Mattress fund ... it's probably more needed!:cool:

mmmmmm - see - a new year doesn't mean that Rising Logic is going to be any better :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Ohhhhh and I've just made myself the most disasterous dinner ever

Honestly, how come everyone else manages to make things in the SC .... I've not used it for ages and ... well anyway, it was a disaster and can see the dog getting most of what's left

Bah!

I can do beef in the SC and it's fab .. but when it comes to chicken! :eek: Never again!

slowlyfading

What were you trying to make? How did you do it? I love our SC

Chicken casserole

The sauce is lovely and the carrots are fine .....but the swede is rock hard and the chicken is dry

I've tried it for chicken curry before and it was similarly disasterous!

I chucked the whole lot in this morning & left it?

Can see me taking the chicken out & the dog getting it and then removing the swede from the sauce and freezing that & the carrots to use with chicken breasts (cooked separately!) later ....
