    Qoc thanks for this but definately hydrated okay as always drink at least 6 glasses of water a day so really not sure what is the cause of my night cramps all I know is they are blooming painful:eek: and seem to last for ages.

    If you like tonic water, that's what my doctor recommended. I hate the taste though so I didn't try it, luckily the cramps went away by themselves

    QoC I did your posh quiz and I am 57% posh :eek: Mainly from my youth I think as I got a scholarship to a public school - plenty of double barrelled Philippas and skiing lessons :p:D

    Just back from Ts, treated the boys to some Nesquik. Half price at 99p then 40p back on Shopitize. Also got the Kingsmill crumpets and waffles - 2 for £1.20 and 65p back (30p+35p). Would be even better at As as 2 for £1.

    Now having a medicinal whisky as I've developed a sore throat. Plus I'm feeling a little anxious about tomorrow. Have an appointment with my haematologist (first one since my results over the phone since they forgot me :mad:) in my lunch break. After the !!!! up last time I was given results over the phone I'm a bit worried.

    Scamps, glad she's agreed to pay the phone bill but I wouldn't be agreeing to being anyone's little secret. Keep your self respect :)

    I have put cauli and broccoli in before but they did go a little mushy. Didn't ruin the overall dish though.

    I think a lot of it about browning meat etc is just personal taste. I brown meat off if making a casserole on the hob and I do the same with the slow cooker. I deglaze the residue in the pan with some stock and add that to the slow cooker.
    My MIL however doesn't bother to brown off her meat for any sort of casserole.
    You won't ruin in, they are both perfectly edible it's just a case of slowly experimenting yourself and finding your own way of doing it :) It also depends how much time you have ;) There are some good tips here; http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/10-top-tips-using-slow-cooker

    Thankyou, I am going to give it a go, and hope and pray.:rotfl:
