To think having children is not a right!

[cremeeggcook]

If you can't afford children thats just tough! IMO. We should abolish child benefit to be spent on real rights such as having something to eat and decent levels of sanitation. I would rather my hard earned tax went there than child benefit!!

I've never had lobster? How does one prepare it?
When I get my child benefit in 2 months time I'll spend it on that! And the finest wine I can get!
Although whilst working in a school as a SEN teaching assistant at "living wage" for a good few years maybe I don't deserve what I've paid into the system! Gosh darn it!
eBay it is for my baby!
But it'll be ooookaaaaay I can make a keeline pie and cake in a cup and maybe some shortbread! Well buy these items I burn cakes that I make!

We're having Yorkshire puddings filled with Irish stew.

Followed by blueberry and lemon cake which does in fact look like a fat clafoutis.

Also non alcoholic wine...I'm a Muslim

No dinner tonight. Spent all my CB on fags and sunbeds. Shit.

Chillyegg great plans for your child benefit! If you're burning cakes, it might be because your oven is overheating. Mine underheats and we have to adjust it accordingly. Shame to give up on baking cake!

Sorchan it's not just burning though! Sometimes they explode! I did admittedly put 4 teaspoons of baking powder in it! Sometimes they fall apart! Sometimes I accidentally put too much flower in! I'm just a terrible baker! My partner on the other hand doesn't even have to follow a recipe....sigh

I kind of feel as if I should give a reasoned explanation, but get the feeling that it would be lost on OP - who probably merely started this thread because she was bored on a Sunday afternoon and wanted to start a fight.

So, instead, I will hijack the thread to tell you, OP ALL the things wrong with private medicine:

1. Private hospitals have no capacity for dealing with emergencies. Therefore, in one, you will be carted off to your local NHS hospital

1. Private healthcare will cherry pick the conditions that it treats. So if it's something serious and you can't pay up - guess what, they send you back to the NHS.

1. Th NHS has to operate to high standards for patient safety and is accountable to the tax payer, therefore when mistakes happen, we all know about it. This does not happen with a private hospital. Think about it.

Ok, I'm done.

Had roast beef for lunch, followed by sticky toffee pudding.

High rate taxpayer.

Don't get any CB.

Mn'ers have we technically trolled this thread about baking?

Preparing lobster is a mare, I can't do the death thing via boiling water.

I like it done for me and there in the supermarket.

Chillyegg Wow, exploding cake! I made exploding pizza once, but never had a cake explode yet! Sounds like a good reason to leave all kitchen activities to your partner though .

I can cook savoury dishes bizarrely! Well I shall try a prepared lobster ... Laughingly in memory of this thread

Glad everyone on this thread appears to be getting their (just) desserts. I found a Christmas pudding at the back of the cupboard - now steaming on the hob.

Chillyegg I think you win the prize for the first person I've seen to ever troll their own thread
Let us in on it - boredom or stealth food thread?

This actually isn't my thread ...

I wish now I had the genius to do so!

I am such a tit...
Getting my eggs mixed up.
Hanging my head in shame now...

And going away..
You never saw me..

Ah, at least have some

It's ok your momentary accolade made me feel slightly special

Don't go! Blame it on the

I'm actually blushing in real life!! I wouldn't mind but I had a long conversation with DS about reading things properly to get all the information correct this morning!

Roast beef ... with a light side salad and potatoes ... is that odd? I think DH is having a glass of rose (it smells like strawberries and cream, very nice) but I'll stick to coffee until the pee stick gives me the answer I bloody want.

Awww don't be embarrassed love! I'm not a bad egg and so I'm not offended!

I love eggs (most eggs!). Sadly I'm only eating NutriBullet Smoothies most of the time at the moment (except my roast chicken dinner with only boiled veg earlier). I am eating a lot of fruit and veg. I would love cake! Any cake...
