Ooh, my DD2 loves Deadly 60 so I'll tell her about the blooper programme, thanks

It's really funny and good for mums too:o I love Steve...

What were the crisps like?? I've got the takeaway book (hasn't everyone on MSE?! ) but haven't really made much out of it yet.

They are on the website blog thing not in my book but they might be in the other one, I think I need more practise:o DS declared them "magnifique" (he was watching the PSG game), I think I should have cooked them for longer in smaller batches. I think everyone does indeed have the book, DS and I planned to cook something different every weekend and haven't really so must get on with it.

Btw, cheese with bits of fruit in it = major _pale__pale_

:rotfl::rotfl:each to their own! DS is not a fan of fruit with meat so no pork with apple sauce here, should have seen his face when he ordered a gammon steak once and it came with pineapple on top "why would they DO that???":rotfl::rotfl:

I think my DD2 has a little crush on Steve, although she wouldn't admit to it

Completely agree with your DS not liking fruit with meat ~ now that really does give me the boak!! :rotfl:

I think he's a good bloke to have a crush on - fab body, brains, ability to laugh at himself (see bloopers!:D) and he has a brilliant job, she has excellent taste!

Just waiting on washing machine finishing here so I can hang stuff out and then DS and I are off down the coast for a walk.

Had a lovely day out with DS - total spend about £3 on icecream:D yes it was that warm! Still cold over in Arran though...

Lovely picture! Reminds me of home:)

Sounds like you had a fab day out- glad you enjoyed the first of the season's ice cream. Hopefully we will have a great summer and there will be plenty more to follow.

Love the pic of Arran ~ it looks so striking with the snow.

It was lovely & sunny here yesterday but we're on the East coast so the wind was freeeeezzing!! It's about time that cold wind boogered off if you ask me :cool:

It's been freezing but sunny here for a while now and I'm very happy with that, washing is drying ok and it's fine for getting out and about in - preferable to warm but rainy:D Homemade potato wedges in actifry and I've chucked a variety of spices in just hope it's not too overpowering...

End of food week with £13 left, hooray! Might take DS out for lunch with it tomorrow, still another week off school to go up here so please let the weather hold as he's been to beach with his pals (hardy souls up here) and is not requesting money for anything - to be fair he took his own for drinks etc.

Wedges were very yummy:drool: Still no crisps have been eaten this month - apart from the home made ones:T

This evening is one of my two drinking in April events so I shall try to enjoy it without having a hangover that last all weekend:o I'm going out with a friend so looking forward to catching up and lots of laughter:D. But before that I have to shop with DS:eek::eek: fun, fun, fun...

Washing in the machine and a cuppa brewing:cool: hope the sun comes out again soon.

Wee £10 MOP - still can't log on to Ha$$ifax to check balance so don't want to send more until I'm sure it's going to the right place:o

Shopping trip successful (using vouchers) and lunch under left over money so all good:D

Had fab night out and not much money spent unexpected night out tonight so might be off dry April again

Plans for today are gym then revision before night out. But first the ironing...
