    That's a shame about the recipe section. Still got bbc good food though?

    Maybe that is what they will be concentrating on - rather than having two separate recipe sections?

    Isn't it weird :rotfl: it fills a need, so I think eventually it will become an *actual* word, rather than unknown slang :p

    Ah! Well sussed, MCI - that could well be it. In which case, it makes more sense. Two sets of online recipes isn't sensible. I haven't read the detailed reports, though, so I'm not quite sure.

    Done my client work, had a couple of intense phone calls, walked round the block, scarfed down some pasta, timings at my dentist have changed so I can't get a hygienist apptment. OTOH, two hairdressers in my town have half price deals for first timers :j I've yet to take the plunge :eek: currently I'm on here :D and scanning my European trip postcards to get it all in one place :j

    I've often used the BBC web site for recipe ideas, shame they are pulling such a good resource.


    But it won't be so bad if good food stays, as I've also browsed that site for ideas

    I have a recipe binder on good food.

    When I got rid of my 25 years worth of magazines last year I popped all the recipes from the last 10 years I wanted to keep into the online binder (only had to write a few out).

    So I hope it does stay!

    I was searching the web looking for advice on whether it's safe to eat the rind of certain cheeses (not the waxed Edam type:rotfl:) and found the usual plethora of websites offering all sorts of different advice;). I clicked on so may links I've no idea where I found it but there was a response from a gallygirl dated 2006 about goat's cheese rind:j.

    Not sure if it was 'our' galleygirl, but if so, what a small world it is:)

    Highly unlikely - I don't think I knew goats cheese existed in 2006 :rotfl:.

    Morning KC! - Did you make it back from the hairdresser?:D;)

    I've just done a batch of YouGuv surveys & seem to be up to 2075pts! - Finally a bit of progress made - not sure why they suddenly feel I might have valued opinions!;)

    We live and learn, hey? :)

    I managed to do the banking yesterday, that was good, plus a fair amount of weeding, then sitting out on the patio - to the annoyance of the ginger cat who claims my garden as his own - he hissed at me as he stalked off :D

    Difficult day otherwise - my ex-friend died yesterday morning, which meant that my ex-partner and I finally spoke on the phone. We were both in floods of tears, and he's actually agreed to email me as I wanted for the first contact.

    Got to send a card today to the bereaved family. Nothing further to do for *my* family except make sure I'm fit to go to the wedding, everything else that could be done *has* been done.

    Thank you both. I'm taking it as easy as I can, w/m is on, but I'm working this afternoon. Should be all right though. Just going to book the hair appointment (I hope all the frantic follow up stuff doesn't mean I've left that too late) and shut down - time on the patio is well spent :)
