A knowledge of biology is handy for sooo many things ;) Immature :giggle: I enjoyed biology at school but was rubbish at it and my teacher was really impatient I'm surprised anyone took it. Old bat - maybe she secretly hated kids :rolleyes: haha Hope your legs feel better tomorrow and...

Do you have a large variety of birds then Dawn? Wish we did :sigh: There's a greedy group of noisy chattery starlings, 2 male & 2 female blackbirds, one pair of which has one fledgling, 2 pigeons and the odd HUGE crow that amuses us by balancing precariously on the feeder pecking large lumps...

They seek me here :peep: they seek me there, :peep: I spend too long on a pile of threads to have time for my own. It'd be boring anyway....believe me it would!! ;) My 'way with words' is sporadic like an allergy :giggle: Glad to 'see' you around hun :D:D

Lidl are pretty much the same, but I do prefer some of Aldi's frozen stuff like their bags of frozen fish - pretty sure their haddock, cod & plaice fillets are 2.99 a bag just now too. Couldn't get any when I saw them yesterday as I was getting the bus and don't get back for over an hr :( sods...

Am 'creating' veggie cakes/patties using a mash of swede, parsnips, carrots, garlic & cabbage then mixing in raw pepper & onion & making into patties, sprayed with Fry light and baking in the oven. Served with birdseye salmon. Hope it's as nice as it sounds to me :D

Hey Dawn ;) Well hunni, you came out the other end in one piece. A little ragged around the edges maybe, but still in one piece :hug99: The service sounded just perfect and it must certainly be a huge comfort to you knowing that your dad was so well thought of. And I have no doubt he would...

:8855: No problem MrsB, :thankyou: anyway xx

Sorry :o but I couldn't find where to ask, and didn't want to start a new thread for one little question :D

Copy/Paste doesn't work but the you can see, but where did you get that from? I tried Right clicking and doing 'Copy image URL' and 'Copy Image' & 'Copy link address' but all to no avail. Do I use the paper clip at all, or the envelope/mountain thingy like for the Tickers? Sorry :o Bet you...

Really!?! I knew I could get Scan Bran in there but not hi-fi bars! :eek: Thanks MrsB will check next time I go over to the next town :D

Well done :woohoo: What plan are you following ffynnon? You're doing amazingly well :D

There're no classes near me so am doing it on line Laurie ;)

Sweetcorn I am curious as to why we have to syn sweetcorn on a Red day, yet baby sweetcorn is free? Anyone know? :D

:8855: Aw bless, keep taking the pills it may not happen :giggle:

We haven't got your sun Bev........cold and miserable here. Have you tried the French? They might have it!! :rotflmao: Always best to blame someone else I find ;) I hope that anyone who is in their early 40s isn't reading this and thinking that life isn't worth having once you hit 50...

:8855: ahh, a good ol' cuppa ;)

Oh that is one form of greed that is most definitely encouraged around here Lily ;) Supporting each other is what happens best on this site I feel. No matter what, there will be someone to applaud, laugh, cajole or even :whoopass: when necessary, but all with the same aim of helping each other...

Go Lily :party0011: Go Lily :party0011: That is just an awesome loss Lily :wee::wee: Well done :D:D

Oh me too Kieragh :rolleyes:

Well I hope everyone is well and being 'good' :wavey: I need some advice please; I am 'going through the change' and I feel bloated as if *week is imminent, but nothing now for 2 months - gr8 & annoying at the same time :confused: I haven't lost any weight now for 4 weeks and I have been on...

Oh good idea ;) I can't get Hi-fi bars or WW crisps (the crinkle sweet chilli ones are only 3.5 syns) :D

Cabbage, red cabbage & roasted peppers, onions, mushrooms & parsnips :D

Cabbage, red cabbage & roasted peppers, onions, mushrooms & parsnips :D

As difficult as today will be Dawn you will always have wonderful memories, and today you will actually make some more. Your dad will live on in your hearts, in the happiness you knew and in the dreams you shared. Thinking of you Mo xx

Sweetcorn is just a free food as you have above Butt3rb34n. Baby sweetcorn is a Speed food, but Garlic & pomegranate aren't I'm afraid they are free only :D
