    For those on fast days, a whole tin of Bombay potatos is only 190 calories :beer:

    Not according to the info on the tin I'm looking at ! It says 95 cals/100grams anfd the tin is 400grams. I make that 380 cals. Half a tin would be 190 cals.

    Easy mistake to make - read carefully.

    Also different brands of beans have different amount of calories, same goes for bread and I dare say a lot of other stuff too. A standard size loaf - you are most likely to find a slice varies between 90 and 140 cals - pick wisely :cool:

    Anyway I like to win at something, and kitchen rolls won't be it today. :rotfl:

    Stubby wonders how many of those Dotty managed to get in the car, notices lack of picture at the moment. ;)
    :D no picture I am afraid that would be proof for the psychologists :rotfl: and would take too long. But I did manage to get a few shall we say :o
    Anyway may well be going for some 36 wash thingys ;)
