You would all be impressed, for tea I cooked OH an individual beef wellington! He was very impressed... hope he likes the other 10 in the freezer!!!

I also have made two steak pies and loads of cheese and onion rolls (for me!)

And I experimented with the Mille-feuille, but just baking one half sheet of puff pastry on its own, it was about 4 inches high, I ended up cutting it in half and filling with brambles, jam and cream but no one home to eat it. I think I may have to roll the pastry out it out a little to make the mille-feuille!

Yummy..

:T:T:T:T:T

I hope you don't mind me interjecting but the best way to cook puff pastry for mille feuille is to bake the puff pastry between two baking trays so it cooks through but doesn't rise too much (down boys!).

You'd think I need that?:p Though I do find your green computer number picture fascinating!:D

Just to tell you that some prices on the APG for M may be comparing to M's online prices (which are due to start on 10th Jan.) rather than the 'current' instore prices.

Separately I also had an mbuy glitch on a womble earlier today - Strongbow 24x ???ml* at £8 each and any 3 for £20 in A returned 3x £8 on the APG. It still returned with nothing though, due no doubt to the £12.11 they saved by buying other mbuys. How can people save £15.11 on their shops?:mad::rotfl::rotfl: T was still £15.44 more expensive (even with the Strongbow full price) on their well in excess of £100 shop.:eek: I think Morries in fact may not be wrong - they obviously know how much people usually spend in their stores and it's a service more than likely not aimed at us but at weekly shoppers who often spend in excess of £40. For them, the £1 delivery charges could be attractive. We shall see! Give them a coupon for a few quid off their £40 spend and you've hooked them back in.

I couldn't confirm the price comp. on the Strongbow vs Morries or elsewhere unfortunately as my internet connection immediately went off again:(.

Just popping on to let you know though.
The fault's been reported, who knows when it will be fixed. Managing to print APGs off in the 'one minute' windows I occasionally get from my phone service:(:rotfl::(. (I don't care - you can have another frown!:p.)

:rotfl:Though not able much to go around msm - you'd think they could get M on there soon?!?

Goodbye, again, for now!!:wave:

*Sorry, not very able to check at the mo. due to the internet probs.

Are you watching? What a FAB match

I was! Another brilliant game :T
Was a tough one to call, I like them both, but it's good to see the winner do well (no spoilers, just in case!)
Don't think I'm gonna manage the next game though, I'm knackered! And I missed the afternoon games as well, stoopid work :mad: :rotfl:
But least I'm not in 'til next weekend now

On an open fire presumably.

Now - after my clueless answer:o:o - another blindspot area I'm afraid - some serious/useful replies doubtless to follow from someone else.

Serious? On here? Must be joking:rotfl::rotfl:!:D:D

Cut a small cross in them on the brown side face up so they dont explode and did mine for about 20 minutes in the oven.
