    I like to be awkward, sometimes :rotfl:
    I don't have chips very often but when I do it's vinegar first, then salt - oh and depending on what I else I have, a blob of mayo or chilli sauce to dip them in :D

    Other than that, I'm quite easy to cook for, honestly, as long as it's not pasta :)

    Oh yes, ALWAYS vinegar first then salt. Helps the salt stick to the chips rather than washing it off :eek:

    I get some very strange looks in chip shops when I tell them to do it my way round :rotfl: I just say "it matters" and walk away :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Salt first, so the vinegar washes it onto the chips underneath.

    Has anyone got this amazones code from 10ways to work - it was on their page yesterday - £25 off a £40 or more order but you had to use some of your Amex points - I cant see a minimum amount so I was trying £1 of points and paying the rest with the Amex card.
    The code does not seem to be working though for me ...

    I still have cotton wool for a brain and all I can think of that we really need is printer ink.
    Also I fancy a soup maker but thats not really a "need" ...
    I am only looking at things that can be delivered via Amazon prime.

    I had a look at my Amex offers and it still seems to have the spend £20 get £5 back offer on my card - so in theory I was hoping to spend £45 and get down to £20 with the code ....



    deal expired when I tried it yesterday morning...
