Evening all, hoping someone can suggest a recipe as I have 3 peaches, a couple of apricots and 3 or 4 nectarines all about to go off so I need to use them up. I'm still not a fan of just eating them, so any recipe which could use them up would be appreciated! I did wonder about just sticking them all in a pot and making a weird sort of jam, but I don't want to waste them.

Slice them into ramekins and sprinkle with crumble mix.. Individual fruit crumbles....serve with custard or ice cream:)

Yes it is a bit frustrating when

you get things like this (highlighted) returning N/A vs M when the loose Gala Apples are on cheaper price in M today. (Though why anyone would bother with paying for fruit, by debit card today rather than yesterday by Sun voucher...;)) And when the Baked Cheddars are 50p each in M. It did make quite a difference as well, as the M comp. was the 'winning' one:(.

Yes he is back. He was half an hour early :eek: which has the same effect on him as being half an hour late. He's had a good moan about it!
He had a good time and managed to spend the £10 spending money he was allowed on a blinking teddy bear dressed as a pilot I wouldn't mind, but I took 2 bin bags full of soft toys to the tip last week because I couldn't give the bloomin things away! :rotfl::rotfl:
......yes £10 for a little teddy dressed in a PVC jacket and hat :eek:

Glad he had a good time and hope he has got over the being early bit.

Kids spend money on crap, my kids always buy sweets and random bits that never ever get seen or used again, the fact that they have the money in their pocket, and its burning a hole in it I think.

Just been in Home Bargains and they have a nice double pack of lashes for £1.49. Very normal nice lashes.

Cheers VT. I had some put on over the weekend to try them out and I'm enjoying the instant glam. It's funny how a set of lashes and new nails can instantly make you feel loads sexier and more ladylike

Mrs S I've just started to use the palmers cocoa butter stuff with self tanner in that you recommended. Looks like it will build up gradually so I'm pleased so far.

He is 14 so just asked him what they did, he said it was just for all the clever kids to brainwash them to go to the uni:o:o they got shown round had free lunch talked to students, he then said, " They tried to impress us with the success of their quidditch team, but grown men running round with broomsticks can you imagine anything else as pointless.good job it was not compulsory as I definatly would not go there.":rotfl:
dont think they impressed him very much
