    PD thanks for converting the fudge recipe i have printed it off:)
    Dont like it when it says cups:rotfl:

    No worries. Kind of used to it now. I baked in America and pretty much every house I baked at they didn't have scales so got used to converting everything. They thought I was nuts, I kept muttering 'right so 4 oz of superfine sugar, is caster sugar, is half a cup which means it's 125ml... etc' :rotfl: I don't think they're used to precision baking (or cakes from scratch :o).

    It's amazing how many people don't care/know
    Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen

    Question for bird lovers... The feathered variety:)

    We have a nest in our garden... Baby bird has just taken its first flight/fall from it and is currently sat scared behind a plant pot in the garden...
    Do you think if we go in the house...ie stop making a noise it will find its way back by itself??

    Not unless it has a ladder :D

    You can't run though it either :o

    As I found out when I was a teenager playing a game with our german shepherd, running around the house and SMACK straight into the patio door :eek:
