I thought that at first but today for example - I ended up making a loaf in the breadmaker, two lots of pizza dough for tonight- picked brambles and baked a huge pie for tonight.

If only the ironing and cleaning were as addictive as the ideas I get from this site.

Since I started visiting old style - I now have a breadmaker and slow cooker and have even made jam.

There is a sentence that I never thought I would say!

AnnaV, what amazing savings you have made this month! Very inspiring.

Well, I am new to all this too but have been reading your chats for a few months. i have a some questions to ask about OS etiquette, sorry if they are stupid, don't laugh!!
What does LoL mean? How about DD, OH, MIH??????? There seems to be some kind of code i am too daft to crack! Anyway, hello everyone! I am boiling hot here in west London and dreading the start of the new school year tomorrow (I'm a teacher). X

It's chat forum code, not necessarily OS code
DD means dearest or dratted daughter. Same for DS (son) & DH (husband)
OH means other half
LOL is Laugh out loud. You might also see ROFL - rolling on floor laughing
MIL is the dreaded mother in law, FIL is obvious!

Good luck for tomorrow - having never experienced these nice long holidays you teachers get I've never experienced the dread of going back. Only 2 days til we go away on holiday though - can't wait!!
