    Make sure your Ed's is still open before you travel mhoc. Several have closed since they went into administration recently and were bought out by Giraffe.

    £2 each way Midweek flight London Stansted to Oslo Norway (closest airport to Oslo) with Ryanair £4.00
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/2-each-way-midweek-flight-london-stansted-oslo-norway-closest-airport-oslo-with-2534525

    Very cheap flights to Oslo seem to come up very regularly.
    Accommodation is incredibly expensive - best bet would be air b&b

    I've had a stew slowly cooking for most of the day....I just checked it and realised that instead of a spoonful of gravy granules,I must have added a spoonful of cocoa powder this morning...i's a little sweeter than normal so I'm now trying to balance the flavour out with red wine!

    Tea tonight may be interesting ....

But where is the chicken:o it was still in slow cooker :rotfl::rotfl:

    It's actually very spur of the moment, I was hoping to go to Sunderland next week using my northern coupons ;) but I need to go now...
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.
