It's a pain to find, online it's £50 a roll or about £1-3/metre :eek: Tried, Hobbycraft, Lakeland, The Range, all the cake decorating shops I could think of (don't have time for it to be delivered), Selfridges, Harrods, Fortnum and Mason (they sell everything else!). Hmmm may have to get creative with this one me thinks!

What do you need it for? (sorry if i'm being nosey )
I've heard of the stuff but never seen it used so I'm intrigued

Morning all.
I got a telling off at whoopsies last night :eek:
Had a handful of 5p yogurts in my basket (there was loads) and a woman said to me I'd never eat all them by the end of the day.
I said they'd be good till the end of the week and then I got a lecture about food poisoning :mad:
I don't think she appreciated me sniggering while she was talking because all I could think of was TS with her month out of date yogurt :rotfl:
Needless to say I've eaten one this morning and am showing no signs of keeling over

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

A month is nothing dipdap. Think 3 months is my record.

We are still eating the cheese dated 5th January. :rotfl:

Chocolate decorations and for the fraisier cake I'm making. Last time I used parchment paper but it wasn't quite the same. Thanks for looking

If that happened to me I'd spend the entire morning tipping the house upside down trying to find where it'd gone.
I've been known to not sit still until that big spider I saw scurrying away out of the corner of my eye was up the vacuum cleaner

You and me both, I have been known to get Mr TS rearranging furniture in the middle of the night to catch spiders.

And as for slugs, mhoc what were you thinking :eek: those slimy things are escapologists they have to be dealt with there and then, says she who spent half hour capturing one the other night. :rotfl:

Ooooooh we used to mess around with melted choccy as kids and make shapes using the metal cake cutters Mum had.
Used to stretch cling film over a flat surface (think we'd use a CD case) and then pour the choccy on and cut into it with a cutter and leave it there and put the entire lot in the freezer for a few mins.
Probably doesn't help you out but it used to make the funkiest decorations for our cakes

Evening all

Yet again not caught up with today's fruity escapaes:D

Hope every one is well.

Just wanted to say that today has been a really good day.
This morning I had a winning email:j
I won a snugglebondl. Ok not very exciting but will be put away for next family or friend to have a baby.
The Orchard want me to check out D0ver extra (Think pd said she got around £17 of vouchers for her store so fingers crossed).
Then to top the day off I have just sold my unused dining table for more than I paid for it new:j:j

Not being an early bird my lovely mse friend got me some Morries vouchers which I look forward to using tomorrow.

Plus my dd actually listened to me and got herself a couple of papers. Unfortunately can't be used in morries local near gym so she will have to have a trip into town but her kind mother also posted her a £10 sun voucher so almost the weeks shopping sorted for her.

Right off to read back to see what you have all been doing with your vouchers.

Just wanted to say to 3dogs thinking of you tonight:A

V x

i got sent an invite for that too even though d0ver is quite a way from me? how can they class it as local? :eek::rotfl:

off to catch up now in case i've missed anything

You may be an indirect genius. Being the muppet I am, I forgot I have some suspect looking chocolate transfer sheets (had them for more than a year). I'm going to use the other side instead :money:

You must flour and cereal are the only things I am really careful about now, as they come with their own visitors. _pale_ Oats fair much better though it's usually wheat.

DD1 phoned Wednesday to tell me she had mites in her flour and what should she do. :eek:

She didn't have it contained in plastic containers so they got to the icing sugar and cereal boxes too.
