There isnt one in London Kay unfortunately hun -

Chinese : hot and sour soup at only 5 Syns per serving!
160g serving of spare ribs (about 4 ribs) for 8½ Syns on Extra Easy or Original, or for just 4½ Syns* enjoy beef with mushrooms. There are chicken dishes galore with chicken in oyster sauce at 4½ Syns*, chicken and black bean sauce(5 Syns*) chicken and mushrooms (5½ Syns*). If you fancy rice with your dishes, 100g (about a medium portion) of boiled rice is only 6½ Syns on Original and Free on Extra Easy!

Green options. A serving of chicken chop suey with noodles is a fab 5½ Syns* on Green or Extra Easy, while chicken chow mein is 7 Syns*. For a veggie option, stir-fried mixed vegetables are a sound 6½ Syns

These are per average takeaway serving!!


 
Oh wow thanks so much for the list ! So many choices ! Yummy. Hope you have a fab weekend Sheila !

Hi Sheila
Good to catch up with you again on minis! How are you doing....I am still hovering at 12:0 but hoping for a 1lbs loss tomorrow morning! Just going to be very good today!!!! Says me sitting with a glass of red wine waiting for my SW quiche to come out of the oven!!!! I am freaked out at work so a lot of comfort eating going on! I see you are on new meds for your back...are they good? Amazed at your shop for the month!...My freezer is full ....full of stuff that no one wants to eat gathered from the last 2 years....time for a chuck out I think! Fingers crossed that I get into the 11s tomorrow!

Hi hun glad to see you too. I hope your well? Awww I hope you get that 1 off tomorrow ill be sending positive vibes for you. Im not a fan of red wine yuk, now rose is different lol. The meds are really helping with the pain but are making me veryyyyyyy sleepy, I could actually nod off now :-(

I like to go to the wholesalers now and again, it means I dont have to worry about meats to make meals with for the month, just need to decide what to make with them hehe. My freezer has stuff in it too that no one will ever eat/use, I should have a clear out really.

I hope the quiche isnt burnt if your on the vino lol, whats happening at work to freak you out hun? x
 
SW Quiche was delish! Your recipe!!!! Do you ever fry the mushrooms first? My quiche was very watery....I think it was the mushrooms. Only 200ml red wine for lunch MEASURED!!!!
Going to a concert tonight so will be easy not to drink....so sad to miss Strictly and x-Factor....but I have to go! A friend is conducting and needs me to support him...I am trying to come up with excuses though!...Would be so nice to sit in front of the fire and telly tonight!. I am a music teacher so Christmas time is really hectic....taking two groups to Day Care centres this week to sing carols, rehearsing for nativities, training choirs for our Carol Service, writing reports, editing other people's reports, conducted an orchestral concert last night, hosted a brass instrument demo and accompanied a soloist yesterday morning.....and so it goes.....too much info ...too much wine! Busy beating my husband at scrabble as we speak!!!!

Haha of course i will ask again - Aww can you not record strictly and x factor? or catch up with them tomorrow or online?

I can well imagine how hectic this time of year gets for you, I dont envy you!! It sounds like your gonna have your hands full right up to the holidays hun.
Did you beat hubby at scrabble? haha were the best us women.

No i never pre cook the mushrooms or onions but there would be no harm doing it, sometimes it could be the water from the onions I think. Im glad you enjoyed it and well done measuring out your wine, thats real willpower :D xx
