    I'm in a dilemma now just read that the fairy deal ends soon, probably tomorrow/Wednesday.
    Do I do the following shop?

    14 fairy £98
    2 comfort £6
    5 u&g £5

    Total £109 plus newspaper & magazine

    Less £11
    Less 20%
    Less £3.95 overage
    Less £5 u&g voucher

    Total to pay £24.25 I think

    Plus a friend has offered me £3 each for 6 fairy so just over £6 for the the remainder of the shopping.[/QUOTE]

    Have you got plenty of Fairy for yourself fernie?

    You would kick yourself if you ran out and had to pay full price:eek:

    Id love to go away for Christmas, get away from it, but getting a sitter for Rebecca isnt that easy at that time of year.

    For the last 3 years we have had DS3's girlfriends' parents' dog... last year they had separated, but I still ended up with the dog. It is a nervous wreck of a dog, it urinates in the living room and bit OH.

    We'll have Rebecca for you next year!

    Wendy, please don't be scared of telling the truth. Now if you lied you could get into trouble, more scary :eek: Tell the truth and all will be in your favour. Nothing scary about truth telling, we're all here beside you, supporting you xx

    Totally agree with this advice... you cannot go wrong with the truth.

    We had one of the small chickens on Sunday. Just perfect for lunch for 3. Plus Oz got a dish of squirrel out of it:)

    It has a lovely taste. Soft melt in your mouth. Not stringy like some chicken you buy:o

    Not saying this to be confrontational, but out of general curiosity really. These vegans that object to the animal products, do they never have pet cats and dogs? And if they do, what do they feed them?

    Most actually use vegan cat and dog feed. It is really expensive some people do their own from soya But I know some that use free range meat on the grounds its natural for animals to eat meat.

    As rhos says, the 'devout' vegans feed their pets vegan dog/cat food

    Do you tie newspaper round your tin while the cake is cooking? I tie some round mine, higher than the top of the tin, I don't know if it is a valid practice but I do it because mum always did, it is meant to stop it burning and I have never burned one yet :D

    I do double layer inside and double layer outside:D

    This is the first year they've "caught" E:o


    I double line them and put a double layer of greaseproof on top with a little hole. I then wrap a couple of sheets of newspaper around the outside about 2inches higher than the cake tin.

    The trouble is that there's no temperature dial on my oven, it's not usually a problem as I know the timings for stuff I do regularly but a big cake is an unknown. I had a feeling that the oven was a bit hot when I put it in and should have followed my instincts:o

    I do single layer of baking paper inside and triple layer of newspaper outside :D

    Does the newspaper not set on fire!

    When I was at school (all those years ago) our cookery teacher was 'teaching' us how to use a microwave, she covered a dish with newspaper and put the oven on, standing to the side of the oven.....when the paper set alight we were all laughing. She went mad at us for misbehaving, until she realised what we were laughing at!
