Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

Hi,

Sorry to crash your thread, but just wondered if any of you Aussies could help me?

My friend has just had her 3rd baby in Adelaide and I'd like to send her a little present. If I buy something in the UK and post it then it will take forever with our postal strikes, so can you recommend a website that will deliver to Adelaide? I'm thinking a sort of Mamas and Papas equivalent?

Thanks in advance!

LOL. Oh dear, I did ask indeed.

I hope you and DD are better soon and your folks give you plenty of rest and gin.
Hi knotswapper, I'm fine, although my 4yr old is jumping up and down at my side yelling "I want the red leaaaad" and screeching, so not a brilliant start to the day.

Also dd2 has a gawd awful rash all over her, which I think may be related to her chicken pox jab last week but am not sure. She looks hideous poor darling.

And . . . (sorry but you did ask wink) I have a sore throat.

Apart from that all fine. My folks are coming for a visit in 2 weeks time so I'm hanging out for a few days when they have the kids and I can slope off and sleep/go to the flicks/drink gin etc etc

Hi Claudia smile

I am fine, not in too often these days, but pop in now and then to see what the Aussies are up to.

How are you?

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]

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".
