            :rotfl:tee hee guapa ( if you're Spanish, that's a lovely confident user name!- Good on ya! Mr Weezl's nickname is guappy, a derivative of Guapo!) actually we decided not to see them over a mealtime, as the weekend they were around was quite busy, and we'd fed the multitudes the previous week, so we managed a posh coffee and an iced bun!:T
 :TThat's great! I did wonder, funny how you can get caught up in peeoples lives isn't it?
 Aww Guappy is sweet. I suppose I can claim to be slightly big headed, I actually have Guapa tattooed on my body. :rotfl:Cuban granny.
 I'm going to try one of your lentil meals this week. Not sure which one yet, so much choice!Getting there... A deal at a time. :T0

 I'm very happy to do the maths, but you'll have to help me out with the costs of citric acid, can you remember how much you paid for how many grams of citric acid, no listing for it on 'mysupermarket.co.uk!!!

            :rotfl:Lol Guapa, a tattoo eh?!
 When me and Mr Weezl first kissed, I, knowing he spoke Spanish (I don't) whispered 'guapo' to him (spanish for handsome) he whispered back 'Linda' (spanish for lovely or pretty) Only I didn't know this, so our first embrace was ended by my shrewish screech 'Linda!! Who the Flump is Linda?!' Only, I didn't I'm afraid, say flump!!!
 Ahem, back on topic:o gonna do some more indexing now I've made room for more recipes....
 Love to all,
 Weezl x
