    What are the odds on a post tomorrow informing us he's made it to the walk in centre? :rotfl:

    GDP and I both chastised through the pocket. I then thought, he's young, there is only one thing in his pocket that has worth to him.

    ;)

    Mas, have there been any more issues ?)

    Haha :D

    Nope, no issues at all. Otherwise I definitely would have gone. As it is it has been too easy to justify not going!

    Edot : I know becoming more stupid and forgetful is tough and scary, because I live it, but you know, hiding from it only makes things worse.

    What happens when you say that to them, how you know what it is like? I would like to think they gain some comfort, but parents are funny things.

    PN is welcome to give Lakeland a posh alert, its the sort of shop you wonder round without actually buying anything. I always think it is full of overpriced cooking stuff people have managed without for centuries.

    The problem with our one is that it is opposite Clas Ohlson. I always find a reason to buy something that I never knew I needed in there. It scratches the itch and then totally removes the need for spending at Lakeland.

    It was lir's quote in your post that I read first. Makes for quite an interesting first impression if you read the NPT backwards.

    we don't talk about my health. Hardly ever. Any attempt to broach subject results in unpleasantness, neither RP nor I are nice people, but RP is fighting with sharp knives but a shakey hand often.

    whats that place? Clas ohlsen? What do they sell?

    True; but it's even easier to persuade yourself that you need x or y when it is on their reduced shelf and you've just wandered in for a look-see :cool: :A
    I like a poached egg or dry fried when I'm being very last, upside down on a crumpet. The yolk does what butter should do in the holes of the crumpet.

    Its very messy to eat though. :o

    We have crumpets in the freezer all winter, and I buy them not make them.

    Mmmm indeed. Do you put them in the toaster from frozen (the crumpets, not the eggs :p )?

    It's the same sort of design but the little cups are plastic rather than metal, and don't conduct heat well enough. It's impossible to get the white properly set without the yolk going solid. I'm sure the metal ones are better.

    I tried one of those, I agree with you - I'm sure the metal made the difference. I nuke them these days anyway :)

    Could you do this or an approximation of for a meal for yourself? Do you have any freezer space yet for things like muffins?

    It'd be too much of a faff to be honest, that amount of sauce for one and buying a small piece of salmon that size.... and then, having got the stuff, having to make it instead of eating what I fancy :)

    No freezer yet.

    I often do all sorts of eggs though, had egg/soldiers for lunch/tea/whatever time it was....
