  • Hi Hypno and all

    I'm glad the job is going well.

    Mmm the homemade sauce sounds lovely I wouldn't mind the recipe for that..

    By the way have you heard anything from quidco yet about the legal and general isa?

    nothing yet from quidco re the isa :mad:

    the sauce is dead easy - I just crush a load of black peppercorns in a mortar and pestle, pan fry the meat (steak or pork is best) then bung the peppercorns in, slice some mushrooms and chuck them in, and stick a tub of soured cream in - give it a quick stir to even it out - then let it cook for a couple of mins.

    Dead easy, cheap, and tastes delicious!!

    I'm glad things are going well Hypno - are you still walking part of the way to work?

    I was a good Dragon today I did a serious deep clean of the bathroom which I don't think had been done for YEARS!! Just waiting for DrDragon to get home (a friend needs him to call as the friends computer has fritzed!), whilst he is doing that I will unpack the laundry and then I can completely relax!

    I need you lot to chivvy me along to stitch for the rest of the week (except for Wednesday as I am out and about!)

    indeed - £1.10 off the egg card today - thank goodness for online banking!

    P, 260 miles - would need to set off early for that one!!

    forgot to mention, I had my "regulatory" credit check for work today - had a bit of a panic when it was being done, but it all came back ok, so thank goodness for that!!

    HI,

    Good news that the check went through OK.

    On lunches when OH is watching his waistline he normally takes fruit to work (some of the 5 a day) and water. If he need an energy burst has some of the cereal bars on standby in his desk, but do watch out some of them are more glucose and sucrose than cereal and nuts, so you might aswell eat chocolate.
