    I'm back from Feltham - both OH and I have busy weeks this week, I'm in court 4 days (3 of them in Feltham) and OH's in Ashford today, and then either Sheffield or Leeds for 3 days from Wednesday. He really does need to find out which one it is, I reckon!

    Not on strike then NDG? ;)
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    The School Of Life have announced a second set of "how to" books:

    Why didn't they do that a month ago? (Or, why didn't I notice a month ago...).
    I have read 5 of the first 6 set, & quite liked them, so it is very likely I'm going to want these...

    Here's Nigella's take:
    http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/chocolate-concrete-1735

    the recipe I have at home also includes egg (only one). Essentially it's a halfway house between a cake & a biscuit. Tastes very chocolatey :drool:
    Apparently it is lush with custard.
    I only heard of it a couple of years ago, & made it for friends who haven't stopped jibber-jabbing about it!

    I could do this with DD now, but what variety is all purpose flour?

    I assume it is the white powder that Nigella often forgot to wipe off her face....

    Those who know me .... will know that I've recently got a string of 80 Xmas tree lights.... yes, 80. Now, you'll also know that I like to "keep things nice" and devise systems to keep things nice.

    I've just packed them away ..... and found a great way to do it, ensuring 100% that next Xmas they won't be tangled at all. And, having got to the end ... I am pleased to report they also fitted back into the original box, always a little joy of mine :)

    Only took 15 minutes, in total, to remove them from the tree and wrap them up nicely and get them into the box.
