    I dont mind runny if it's hot.


    But if it's hot it won't be runny. It will be a hard boiled egg.

    Just thinking about the Eat well for less BBC programme I trawled through last night.

    Wouldn't WE make much better television. Folk wouldn't believe what us lot got up to:rotfl:
    I still can't get my head around people spending hundreds upon hundreds of pounds a week on food. Was it £13k or £18k a year it worked out at?

    Both figures seem utterly ridiculous. And how sad to hear that people have such busy lives that they haven't got the time to cut up a carrot but prefer to buy batons instead.
    That they can't put aside 15minutes to prepare a meal as the microwave can ping one ready in 3 minutes.
    And how they shove branded meals heavily loaded with salt and sugar into the mouths of their children as they drool over pretty packaging.

    And I thought "poverty" existed only among the poor. Now the rich are also poor. Poor in imagination, intelligence and foresight:o

    Didn't they spend about £300 a week? I get change from that in a month. I watched it like :eek:
