lol, no, seriously, the Black Tower (carp {is it German} wine) reminded me. I was thinking about your predicament about the few bottles of lef...lefram...German crap wine that you got. I remember Queen of Cheap saying when we were all getting Soda streams, that she was going to try getting busy with the fizzy. May be worth asking her what it tastes like, as its meant to make rather a good fizz

I re-fizzed an open bottle of prosecco on Christmas Day. It was ok but I'd done 2 bottles of champagne by that time so probably not the best way to try not done the flat wine yet but I will :cool:

what are the 9p chocs & 24p rice QOC? TIA

Lidl- microwave sachets of rice for 24p- I got plain, basmati and egg fried rice ones, they had pilau too but they were all in the basket of the dude in front of me :mad:

The choc bars are their own versions of Milky Way and mars. Not that great but for 9p, misery guts will have them for work in the week

EMMAP

I was gonna take some DVDs to CEX but dammit my bed is just too comfy today.

Thank you to Jelly from PD and meeeee

So we got the children into bed, had a nice meal cooked by DH (though rather garlicky), a bottle of fizz (made for a gorgeous combo :eek:) then I promptly fell asleep on him in front of the telly :rotfl: Romance certainly isn't dead

Sounds like a perfect evening to me

Actually does that mean that the ultimate ELITE valentines meal was burgers,mash and a bottle of fizz!

And it wasnt a case of gazing lovingly at your partners eyes but lovingly at the PP the meal generated and dreaming of how to spend it....

Sounds like a cracking combo to me

Doesn't have that effect on me. But the bubbles do seem to have an effect the other end. :eek: I know TMI.

:rotfl: I'm not sure which end is less romantic

My local Ts have mass stocked the Golden balls big time. :eek:

Think maybe me, Dodo and Truffle Hunter might have had something to do with that. :whistle: We definitely hit triple figures between us.

Mine too. If I'd known how nice they were I'd have snaffled the lot, I took 10 and they're all gone already (well 5 to other people) :rotfl:

Just collected my C & C shop & have 2 bags that are not mine. Was going to ring but OH says do not bother. Can't decide. Not may items but pack nappies (no use) & couple bottles of wine. Decisions. If I ring them will they ask me to take them back or just keep them?

Depends on your morals and wether you need wine or nappies.

If it was me I would rind them and at least one bag would be going back if the van man would collect it

If they say keep it then you can always put the nappies in the foodbank collection - my local one was asking for nappies this week.
Wine is good for presents and school raffles

TrulyMadly

Forgot to mention that I made bread and butter pudding for dessert last night.....with a difference. Meant to take a pic but forgot:o

Buttered bread and cot into triangles, chopped a couple of bananas and placed between triangles in a shallow dish. Mixed together a little pot of cream, 3 eggs, some milk and sugar and a great big glug of Baileys. Sprinkled with brown sugar and stuck in the oven for a while:)

Seriously gorgeous:)
