WOT ?? The best bit, and the skin on custard, and the skin on rice pudding, and the skin on milky bedtime drinks, and the skin on roast pork. What's that got to do with dock leaves though ? How could you do this to me? :( I'm just getting used to being dairy free and you remind me about the delight...

Oh dear, I only get " Cover you funeral costs". Bye everyone, see you there"

Just an update. I've been keeping a food diary now and have proved that I'm seriously allergic to chocolate - I'm gutted :( I had another 'funny turn' after eating a dairy free chocolate dessert so there's no doubt now. I've been in touch with the Allergyuk forum and they've confirmed that the sympt...

I've also been having problems with the iPad. I now tend to lurk anonymously unless I feel I have something useful to add in which case I either get the mac out or gaff about logging in all the time. Most of the time I don't have anything useful to add.

Hi Pot, Kettle here!

Oh my goodness. Do I ever shut up?

Congratulations! (I'm just posting this to see how many posts I've done so far).

I know exactly what I'd do. I'd set up a not for profit business buying up empty, unloved properties. The sort that are too difficult or expensive for a commercial organisation to repair. Then renovate them and either sell or rent. The aim would be to cover costs. Without the need to recompense shar...

I don't know yet what's causing it but I do know that I've had a few anaphylactic attacks. Not serious enough to warrant hospital but still pretty scary.

Hi
Does anyone suffer from food allergies? I've been diagnosed and am now trying to determine which foods I'm allergic to. Keeping a food diary at the moment but would appreciate any words of wisdom anyone can share.

With kids like that, you should give parenting classes. You've obviously done something right. Do have a fabulous time.

Lol - love the idea of a new craft room. Last year I just gave up and moved myself into the small single bedroom so that I could use my large main bedroom as a craft room. Much more practical than wasting all that space on just sleeping!

I can't wait for the piccy of the lampshade.
