    I would not want to wait. I hope they can fit you in for a check today seeing as you won't have far to go. x

    Have good news, DD3 had her wound check today, all looking good so consultant decided it was ok to put full cast on today rather than wait until next week. :j

    And he seemed optimistic that she may not need half cast after 4 weeks, or maybe only 2 weeks not another 4 like we were originally told. 4/6 weeks sounds so much better than 8 weeks. :)

    This is sounding like fab news :)

    Thank you, I did come across this too, but the words just aren't sinking in:eek::eek:
    The recipe I found said baking powder and baking soda, Oh I am so blimming confused!!!!... So do you think I could just use bi-carb soda instead of baking soda??

    Thank you!

    I read it as no you can't :(

    Hi choirchick, good to see you posting. You're going outside your usual battle ground shopping in Morrisons, aren't you? :D xx

    Yes well started my diet again today will only last a few days I'm sure so didn't want to be tempted to get things I didn't really need. I like Morries fruit & veg fish & meat counters xx

    Afternoon :D

    As it is quite quiet on here, I wonder if any of the "bakers" out here could help me... Pretty please:D

    What is the difference between baking soda (don't have, can't find to buy:() and bicarbonate of soda (do have:o)?

    I have over ripe bananas, and would love to have a bash at making banana bread:eek:
    I also don't have a sieve or weighing scales to measure the flour:eek::eek:

    Is it still possible to make?

    TIA x

    Not sure about the difference but here is a link to a recipe with out either in it. I make banana bread and its easy peasy. ( and I dont cook much )

    Ahhh!!!
    Thank you so much for all that answered, who would have thought things could be so complicated!!
    I thought I had all the ingriedients needed, don't have caster sugar or vanilla:(, was hopint to "chuck" it in the bread maker and .... voila, 55 min later out comes a lovely loaf:rotfl:
    I even bought cream of tartar, because i'd read somewhere that it can be mixed with Bicarb to make baking soda:eek::eek::eek: I just don't know what to do with it:eek::eek:
