    Mum practically snatched a gammon from me this afternoon, I hadn't even sat down and she had put one in the oven!

    Verdict, too salty!
    She wishes she had soaked it in water first, do people still do this?? tia

    Nan would always soak it over night and was always less salty :)

    Evening all :) bit of a lurker here, used to post in DTD days but don't always have time to follow now. Incase anyone is going near a Mr Shoes then its worth looking in the clearance section. My local had LOTS of designer hair products and electrical bits very heavily reduced at the weekend (down to 10p/20p and 30p!!!) managed to get £235 worth of bits for just under £10!! Everyone will be getting hampers with hair products this year lol!
    Have been using the NCG vouchers recently to get my free soup and have shared with family who have been very pleased, don't get near anywhere that has the Metro so haven't had any up and go vouchers but have loved reading about all the overage you have all be getting :).

    Welcome cloz:T

    And thank you for mentioning my cleavage hehe

    We have spent all morning assembling our new IKEA sofa....

    I didn't realise it arrived flat packed... So heated 'words' regarding reading of instructions, Fourp not listening, then it looked so low to ground :eek::eek: & I thought he would blow a gasket.
    But when I released the vacuum packed cushions that expanded to 8 times their size.... it made sense :o
