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.

Good morning!

Have house all to myself and what do I do? Drink tea, MN, watch telly. Bliss.
sfx - grin at marketing stuff. Do you know how they got hold of your details? We used to know that Greenflag was giving out my details because my name was spelt wrong all the same way.

Did caramel popcorn for guests. Product a success but process a catastrophe. Popcorn everywhere ...
dolphin meant to say sounds like lucky escape over emotional managers are never a good sign
good luck
vbus and slng hope both have a great timesmile

am getting concerned about what this marketing means first the country lady catalogue now being bombarded with skiing related stuff

vbus - we are going out for posh meal tomorrow evening!

dusty - does sound like a lucky escape!

SFX - chances are about -5%

Vbus - am envy of posh dinner tonight, enjoy!

PC - I think I have decided to take the job with more pay/perm-contract/closer/flexible working, but in my heart still wanting to do other job offer.

I rang the woman at the lower paid job today to tell her I have had an alternative offer. She got VERY heavy with me, implying I had been dishonest and generally made me feel like a piece of poo, to the point she had me in tears. She calmed down a bit after that and said she agreed I need to do what is best for my family, as well as what I want. Perhaps I have had a lucky escape after all hmm

Hope everyone well smile

lol Slng!
Saw that now - wish I was underemployed. What a twat the so-called journalist is. Anyhow, must dash and mop the floor instead of being online. (In RL will not be caught dead mopping the floor. That's what cotton-wearing children are for.)

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o

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".
