    That would be:
    • Spinach, wakame and celery salad
    • Tomato, carrot and onion seed salad
    • Buckwheat soba noodles with wilted pak choi and wakame
    • HM duck prosciutto
    • Pomegranate seeds
    :T:T:T I bet the pomegranate seeds went well with the saltiness of the duck :T:T:T.

    I have pomegranates growing on my terrace in Spain :j. They are this big - (), I don't think there are many seeds in there :rotfl:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    • Managed to go from 400mg of caffeine to 200 and only moderately wanted to kill everybody, all day...
    • Considering leaving Plusn3t for Eeeeeeeee, but they have offered to half broadband cost, which would save a bit. Will make my mind up before the weekend

    Thanks E - sounds very exotic. I had spag bol....maybe I should be more adventurous!
    Sounds like you're going great guns with the savings etc...I do fancy matched betting but am a bit scared of it....will investigate more before I make my mind up :) x

    Blakes 7 I tell you.

    Salad looks lush.

    How is your sleeping? LOL at moderately wanting to kill everyone.

    Not great Al, but I've got a bit on my mind at present. Woke up 3-4 times this morning, all within about an hour of when I was meant to get up. Feeling reasonably chirpy today - maybe the promise of more caffeine? :rotfl:

    Mrs E also wanting to cut down on caffeine, good stuff.

    Salad looks fabulous. So breakfast at Alchemilla's and Dinner at Eds :)
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Yum! it looks positively delish! Have you ever been to Japan? I recommend it for a holiday. THE best food I have ever tasted. Anywhere.

    as i got married last month.

    Massive congratulations! :T

    I hope you are as happy as we are, nearly 3 years in and it gets better every day.

    Well, it would appear that the heavens have opened :eek:

    I have never seen so much rain in 2014, it's strangely calming in its own way.

    Today has been very relaxed. I went for groceries, petrol and then hoovered (not hovered, silly spell checker!) After that, spent a couple of hours at the pub and have come home to a freshly baked chocolate cake.

    Feeling somewhat useless as there has been *no* gambling whatsoever today and no crazy cooking projects :o

    Don't be discouraged. One of the most inspiring things about your thread is the way you plug away with the matched betting. £10 here, £20 there, it all adds up. That's normally a thought that goes with spending :o.

    It's great that you've harnessed the power of turning ten quid into thousands of quid.:) And avoided the relatively low earning power of the swagbucks/clixsense/surveys world to do so.
