    I've read, somewhere, NO, has been known to explode on slow cookers.
    Saying that, I'm sure I've used diet before I read that!

    It's absolutely chundering down out there :eek:

    My cat is alternating between looking at the front door and window like there's someone there and drying herself off after getting herself caught out there. Think it might have been the thunder and lightning that we had that made her decide to come in and dry herself off on my rugby shirt :mad:

    And my brother is walking to work in it :rotfl:

    Afternoon just got home after having a very MSE Indian Buffet lunch with my friend.I was suitable impressed as have never done buffet style Indian food but a great idea as you can try lots of different dishes all you can eat for £12-95:TBut what a nice suprise when we asked for the bill the owner said no Ladies you are my guests today and would you like a drink to finish of your meal so needless to say Nannylala had a nice drop of brandy:j:jNow thats what I call an MSE Sunday lunch and such a nice change from all the Christmas food;)

    Well done NannyL. Good for you. Wish they would do an offer like this at a nice Italian where I could fill my hole with heaps of pizza. Nom nom nom.

    Hope everyone has had what I call a good weekend. Back to work tomorrow. Not looking forward to it.

    Are all the kiddies back at school tomorrow or do they have another week of with teacher training? ;)

    Both the Cherry and the Blueberry were £1, I got two of each, and used the MOCs at SS, no problem.

    Can you use coupons on self ser in sada?

    As the miserable trout’s at my local won’t take printedcoupons.

    And you have to stand there while the trout gobs off to someone called Sharon 10 tills down.

    we don’t take printed coupons do we Sharon and I’m standing there thinking !!!!!! your policy states youtake all coupons and one per item purchased so what is the problem.

    And I don’t want to debate with them for obvious reasons

    TIA

    What a lovely gesture :A:A.
    Now you have made me fancy a curry, although I am just about to have a roast dinner (haven't had one since Christmas Day).
    Maybe if I pop a bit of curry powder into the gravy I can kill 2 birds with one stone :rotfl::rotfl:

    So how long do we think it would take to run out a Bic biro from new?

    I think I might need to invent some sort of contraption to attach the pen/paper to the exercise bike, wonder if my mum has still got my old spirograph in her attic

    About an hour of scribbling. Packs were £1.49 in Sainsbuggrs the other day. Buy on separate receipts. Hold 2 or 3 together (taped if helps) when scribbling, then send from a few household addresses. Careful - the ink gets everywhere!
    :idea: If you've got a dog, tie a Bic to each paw the next time you take it out for a walk - job done:).
    And with one on its tail too, that's five in one go.:T

    I used stock as I wanted to make soup,and have never cooked it in coke so don't know sorry



    It should taste better cooked in water or stock with herbs onion cloves bay excreta rather than coke.

    Then glazed with honey / mustard + Demerara ext. Or something similar and you can use the stock for soup

    They worked fine in my Sada (LS14 branch) today.
    It was ridiculously busy (and I mean ridiculously stupendously busy ... what were people needing to buy, I wondered, or is it the first 'big shop' after New Year?), that's the only reason I used the SS tills, which were a lot quieter.
    The MOCs scanned fine, the SA just came over to check that I had four different coupons.
    Easy-peasy lemon-squeezy:).

    Friend now safely home in Scotland. We had a late lunch after after dropping her off - chestnut and cashew roast, parsnip and carrot mash, cauliflower and roast potatoes. That's all the bits and pieces used up, so I'll have to go shopping tomorrow. I've only spent 10p on food this year so far, on a Dr O pizza :rotfl:
