    My eldest is reading little legs a bedtime story so thats really cute :grin:

    Sammy - are you making your own stock from the carcus?

    ummmm, i think that was the intention. Never made chicken stock before, I thought it came in cubes:rotfl:

    I looked online and threw the whole chicken in a big pot along with a chopped onion and hot water and simmered it for 20 mins. Just going to drag the chicken out now and scrape the chicken off the bones and throw it back in along with some thread noodles. Does that sound about right!:o

    yes yes :grin: ~ I throw other veggies in there too (carrots, etc) ~ the only problem I find with this is that its dead runny and I prefer thicker soup but its tastes good :grin:

    Glad your Yorkshires turned out well :grin:

    Oh good, I am on the right track. I don't mind my chicken noodle soup being runny but I love my other soups to be thicker......

    Having it for lunch tomorrow so will let you know how it turns out....xx

    lol.. just tell him I shut them in a door... ;)

    Not sure how you're going to explain my piercings if he gets intrigued by those though... 'Oh yes Ryan Sarah loves shoving random bits of metal through bits of her body.'
    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I did feel rather popular when we first met and he was saying 'So is that Sarah? Wow!' lmao..

    I know...he was quite excited to meet you!

    He did ask about piercings on the way home - he wanted to know if it would hurt to have his ear pierced!! I think you must have made an impression on him...:rotfl:

    If Sammy's serious, the next one could be not too far from you Bunny! I would be up for that, it shouldn't be too difficult to get to. There's Alton Towers which is expensive per ticket but you don't have to pay for anything extra once you're in there and we could have a picnic! But summer is almost over now....maybe one for next year?

    Or a Xmas party? We could blag free tickets to the cheesiest club we can find (80s fancy dress anyone?! LOL!!!), or if enough people were coming, hire a room and a DJ.....or get the DFW band to play....:rotfl:
