    :T :T :T Congrats Weezl! Hope you all have a really good party. Sorry I can't stop for more than a quick slurp of virtual wine but I've been out for the whole day with 70 ten year olds and I don't think I can keep awake any longer.

    My favourite bits from this thread? - all those wonderful cheap recipes that I'm using AND with the nutritional info to boot. Many thanks.

    A toast to Weezl & Mr W on their success! :beer:
  • Just side stepping in to see how things are progressing..............

    Have had celebratory meal, all costed and under budget and we are all sitting here with thanks to Weezl, with regular comments of "HOW MUCH!" If you can feed us on that said Mr.B, then i will kiss your feet.......now as they do rather have a tendency to pong and being the mischevious person i am, well it just has to be worth doing a leeetle challenge....

    So ceridwen

    What did you talk about?

    How long were you talking?

    I have the number but I have a mental image of weezl and wanted to keep it that way................is that daft?

    Well...shaz...see where you are coming from..But go on..give her a ring...go on...you know you want to...dare you! Well....she sounds much like I imagined...what can I say and poor Mr Weezl is being "worked on" as we speak re mad ideas concocted...one could almost feel sorry for the guy...except I reckon there's a lot of good points in being married to weezl.

    As ISOM put it - in phonecall earlier in the week I had with her - well, she really is just the way she comes over in the thread. "Does what it says on the tin" I guess one could say;) :D
