That's solved the issue with ikea then zaza has been booked by sister and her friend as they went there on their last visit when looking at houses.
Not looking to do anything major on Tuesday, was just wondering if there's anything worth visiting. Well go for a wander in the morning, before setting off mid afternoon,

I think a lot of it depends on where you are based while you are in bristol...its quite a big city and there is lots of shopping....


If your sister is coming for uni then I would take a very rough guess at Clifton/Redland/Cotham/Central areas?

i am also sad love the summer so much to do, but staying hopefully that we get an indian summer so it can continue a little longer



I am in a good situation we have no mortgage and live really cheaply, no holidays, booze,smoking or eating out, so oh pays the bills and glitch shopping surveys etc has made the difference that I do not need to work ,
i wish all the elite were the same or at least could find jobs they loved with nice bosses.

Just seen an advert for Mcains slow baked jackets, jacket potatos, do people actually buy ready made jacket potatos?? Madness!

Yes I do These only take 2.5 mins in the microwave while an ordinary potato takes over an hour to cook! I've tried microwaving ordinary potatoes but they're always uncooked. I need to buy one more of these mcCain jackets so I can send off for the free photo plate if this offer is still available

Afternoon
Hope everyone's well. I'm hoping to get on here a bit more now that school's back.
I spent most of the morning sorting through my prezzie box and writing down who's getting which item then packing them neatly into a huge cardboard box. That's Xmas and the next 6 months birthday gifts sorted just need to find a few toys.
Minecraft Steve and horse figures
Minecraft villager figure
Minecraft zombie figure.
I can order one of them from toysrus (can't remember which though) but want to get them together and hopefully get a discount code to use

I do not have a motor bike. Wanted one for my 18th 4 years ago but dad said they are death traps and wouldn't let me get one. I have a small car which I use to get me and my mates around and mum to shops and relatives. Why would you think I had a motor bike? I've never mentioned wanting to get one before.

I didnt think anyone mentioned a 'motor' bike

I find a quick rinse, wrap in kitchen roll, microwave for 4-5 mins depending on size, then in a hot hot oven for ten mins, sorted, nice crispy jacket potatoes.

Out of interest, how long were you microwaving your potato for? I usually do mine for about 8 mins each (turning over half way through) and they're laaahvely I can understand the use for a quick-cook one though, I would take them to work if I only had a short lunch break for example, or if I was in a rush of an evening. The MSE in me would find it hard to justify the price compared to a normal garden spud though :eek:

I daren't ask what you've been dipping your taters in if they're in need of a rinse...

If you wanted them for work in a rush, you could just pre-cook it at home, then it would just need re-heating
