I have wasted most of today. I must be proactive tomorrow and every hour nip out and de clutter my garage for 5 mins. Eventually I will achieve something. Here's hoping.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
Maiden mum are you going to switch your thread over to this forum? I think you have to ask someone the Forum Guides.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

I cant cook rice either ! I think it was Jamie Oliver said that you should bring to the boil and then turn off and put a tea towel over the pan then the lid on and leave it for about 15 mins to soak up the water ... not sure how much water to use I would have to google it....
I've given up trying to cook rice as I ended up just binning loads and I now buy pouches of microwave rice. They are 49p in aldi but if you cant get to aldi they are sometimes on offer in other supermarkets.
As my DS takes rice to work and you have to be careful re-heating cooked rice I just find it easier to give him a pack to heat in the microwave and more cost effective for us. You can put part of a pack in a microwave tub & heat one night and save the rest in the pack in the fridge for up to 3 days0% credit card £1360 & 0% Car Loan £7500 ~ paid in full JAN 2020 = NOW DEBT FREE 🤗

I cleaned the gas cooker, emptied the bin. It's raining so the clothes will have to be machine dried. Operation Bookshelves is currently on hold as my handyman is incommunicado. Seller is holding on to them for me.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220

Oh bad news about the handyman. Good of the seller to hold onto them for you though.
