So do mars bars. 50p. Bananas 25p too unless you've done it already, of course.

I did the mars bars today. Finally, a benefit I can get by using the co-op up the road :j

Apart from annoying one particular SA by getting the whoopsies before she does and making sure I go to her till :rotfl::rotfl:

I can't believe (well, yes, I can actually!) that I got 2 thanks on my another epic post. I bet some of you just click thanks, without bothering to read the whole lot now, as you know whatever I've said will be right (or if not, if I've made a typo. etc., that I will correct it as soon as I find out).

Thank you all.:)

(And thanks for those summer photos as well - above and now, it seems, below also.)

Oh savvy you do make me laugh with your detailed and long posts :A you write like you are talking to yourself ( I also do that ). and I did read all of that mammoth post btw

Mine are stuck from Wednesday too, I got the same message that Redfox posted last night. Doesn't matter if you adjust the time or anything like that, just comes straight back saying they fluffed it up again :mad:

Anyhoo, evening all

Had a lovely day out today. We took a wee drive to Ardersier, parked up and walked along the shore for a while collecting shells with DD. Then went on to Fort George, but you've got to pay to get right in, so being [STRIKE]the tightwad[/STRIKE] MSE as we are we declined and wandered around the edges instead :rotfl:
We are actually planning on going back though, it looks rather interesting. Then we went into Nairn to have a play on the beach there :cool:



It's amazing what a difference a bit of blue sky and sun makes

I headed your way today, probably passed each other. We did Fort George a couple of years ago, its ok, just that though. We had been to Stirling Castle the week before and thats probably why FG didnt make such a big impression.
Lovely day though.

Evening all,

Lovely day in Norfolk. DS1 loved looking at the boats and had a little play on the beach :j

Got home though and wasn't feeling too well Spoke to hospital and then out of hours service. Within the hour i'd got an appt at the emergency care centre in the next town, been seen, been given antibiotics and got home. Brilliant service :T

Anyway, am all curled up on the sofa now enjoying Sunday night TV whilst catching up

Hope you are all ok

Take care and have an easy day tommorow
X

Michel Roux Jr had a tip for refreshing/reviving a day old slightly stale baguette, though during the programme I'm sure he said to drip a little water on the baguette before putting in the oven.

"If a loaf of un-sliced bread or baguette has gone a little stale and dry, wrap it up in a damp cloth for 20 minutes, then remove from the cloth and place in a hot oven for 2-3 minutes. This will revive the bread and give it that just cooked feel."

linky here plus more tips

This does work, my Nan used to do it a lot, but beware, as soon as the bread is cold again it sets like concrete!

Apologies Elite - I've taken up skipping with Dopey

Lots on today & stressing about going back to work tomorrow

Midwinter,

Hope you've had a nice relaxing day with DS away from all the stresses of work.

So pleased it was a lovely sunny day:)

I know people do read it. And you're quite right - it all comes out as if I'm talking. (Haven't got the effort to think beforehand and make it concise - just write whatever I am thinking. In fact, brain straight to page, no filtering mechanism...)

It reads like notes - or riddles perhaps when I now go and look back at the above paragraph I've typed (and will now post). Not to worry perhaps - sometimes the conversations in the pubs are just as well thought-out!!:rotfl:

Come on, anyway... I've been off these long posts for a short while and just true back to form again. (All feedback I'm getting on here being considered however - and you do (try to!) keep me in line and after this long-post temporary aberration (or, on the contrary perhaps, after this norm), I'm sure I'll return to more snappy single-line comment (either in aberration or back to normal, depending on your view).)

Oh snap you poor thing. Is there anything you can do with that backbone of yours:o

Hope the business planning is going well and you can day dream at work to ease the stress:o
