    Thanks all! :D

    :think: Are any of the suggestions thus far slow cookerable? :confused:
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    Right then, the current favourite is AWT's beef bourguignon. (Thanks lil_me)

    I think if I follow this recipe as far as stage 7, then let the SC take over from there (not forgetting to add the mushrooms halfway though), then it should work. What do you think? :confused:

    Not quite sure when I'll get chance to make this though. :rolleyes:

    Mr Bad Example.

    I need to talk to you quite sternly.

    I had been led to believe that you were always up for a good old cooking session with your little helpers, but I think you are showing a lack of commitment.

    As a relative newcomer, I feel you owe it me to get down to Morrisons and get your pinny on SOON. Otherwise I will take my ball and go home.

    I want dates and times, so that I too can get the popcorn and fizzy pop.

    Don't let me down.

    When I asked OH for something French for a bloke he suggested knickers :rolleyes:

    I told him you're not that kind of guy MrBE. ;)
