Tip of the day

When swimming take robe or poncho towel. After swimming wrap child up, hand over a drink/snack and leave them while you dress. By the time you're ready they'll be dry and the snack will keep them quiet. NeatFreak

Recipe of the week

insywincyspider's slow cooker sausage and green lentils: a solution to frazzled term-time cooking. Pop this tasty casserole in your slow cooker in the morning and you've got a delish dinner with no cooking in the evening.

Brilliant! Quirky humour.

It's a charming story of people in a time warp in a small French village, but the brilliance is in the way it is written.

Places are never referred to just as 'the fountain' but 'the fountain-said-to-cure-gout', à la mode de 'Allo 'Allo (not sure about my French grammar there).

I grinned a lot whilst reading it!
