    Everyone's welcome. I love to cook for others. Bbq or otherwise. My place is always open. :)




    I came home yesterday, ate out last night and been ill since!


    scamps: saw this on the plane and think its a great idea, depends on how much you really like cooking I guess?

    I just love the idea (could never do it myself, rubbish cook), but will use it in the future :)

    I'm not a bit surprised about the bacteria etc in shopping trolleys -a fair bit probably comes off the bottom of the kids dirty shoes ! I'm always moaning about the number off people who don't seem to understand that not everyone is too keen on putting bread, meat, dairy stuff, fruit etc in a trolley after some child has had its mucky shoes all over it. I don't know what some people think the child seats are for - or why bigger children of 4/5/6 and upwards suddenly lose the use of their legs when they enter the supermarket ! (A bit like some older peopleI have met on holiday who swim, do aquarobics, dance, play cricket and generally keep fairly active at the hotel - and then demand a wheelchair and priority boarding when they get to the airport on the basis that they can't walk!)
