They look good. I'd use the homegrown ones, less foodmiles (grin)... I've been reunited with passata mutti, which is lovely.

they are not pomodori toscani but they are not too bad. we're growing 4 different sorts. I have heard good things about tinned San Marzano but have just been getting cheap chopped. The San M are much more expensive. I shall have to give them a whirl and find out why.

my dh is like this, we don't do in depth conversations. We are still happy though. I definitely think it is a male/female difference.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]
For a sceptical face, , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
