    The cheesecake is never in stock at my local. I'm getting the caramel tarts, the melting choc puds and the rasp sponges. All 3 freeze. We had the polenta roasties in garlic last night and they were ok. Trying the wedges tonight. All coupons have gone through till ok:)

    Every single one of my vouchers has needed manually inputting (cue the scrutinizing of the small print by every single SA that serves me) so i'm probably doing something wrong :o
    Got the caramel tarts in my freezer now :) but not seen any potatoes :( only wedges. Will have to have another look tomorrow.
    Thanx for replying :) we should swop as I have a fridge full of cheesecake :rotfl:

    My poor daughter and her bf

    I think they must have been at work but when they came back they found that the pipes under the bath had suddenly gone, burst or something, flooded the flat underneath and also gone under the living room floor etc

    The landlord has taken responsibility and the plumber has been in go sort it out.

    They actually move in under 2 weeks so they were already in the midst of packing so the flat is in even more chaos now.

    Various reasons for moving but one of the main reasons is that the owner of the flat has managed to get a buyer, sale agreed a few weeks ago to 1st time buyers so they were hoping to complete and move in ASAP

    Daughter sounded so depressed on the phone and nothing much we can do for them just now, at least the flat is still habitable

    Think you can get some quite big crates and industrial strength. Getting mine has given me back my life as I was really struggling as not able to leave the dog without damage. We did initially buy a kennel for the garden but she was barking constantly and we didn't think it was fair on the neighbours. The crate has been worth every penny and I don't know what I would have done otherwise. She prefers crate over kennel because its in the house. Hthx

    I ll bet she does. :) We have a jack Russell girl dog lol and she s outside all the time in a kennel of course. Such a strong dog too. She was used to being outside from before we bought her though.

    Awhhh, he just looks so innocent. This must be so hard for you.:(

    27kg is one big dog.

    He's got the puppy dog eyes down to a T, you just have to look disappointed at him after he's done something wrong and he turns 'the eyes' on and I melt a bit but getting harder on him as it's for his own good.

    He's that heavy that it takes a lot of effort to move him when he doesn't want to. The best bit is the vet said he was underweight :eek: I've been feeding him up slowly since then so think he may have got a bit heavier!

    Im back from B&Q with my new FREE wheelbarrow :j:j I decided I was annoyed enough to take the old one with me and see what they said about it breaking so soon. It was B&Q own brand and they exchanged it no problem....didn't even asked when Id bought it :T

    I can finish shifting the compost now, but my goodness it's cold :eek:

    Phew!!! I was late reading back so couldn't warn you not to get the BQ plastic barrow its unstable and useless all my muck tips out of it :eek: thankfully I have two very old mettle ones to fall back on.
