yes we have exactly 3

Couldn't agree more on the shopping as a hobby thing!!

Love 'having a family day out in Debenhams' and the 'deranged shoppers'!

That was very, very good.

LOL at mink kitchen roll, although she has got it spot on about the over heated housing market

And there was me thinking I was the only person who couldn't stand Sharon Osbourne. Hooray!

All the comments are from men...

lol @

'Why do these people enjoy the ?fact? that their house is now worth £300,000 more than they paid forit??Because if we wanted to down-scale to the countryside, we could live like kings,? they chortle. Yeah, but that?s a terrible rationale for a ruinous housing market. We shouldn?t be financially strangling a whole generation on the off-chance that a few people might want to leave Clapham to open a kiln in Leicestershire. Or, indeed, that someone operating a kiln in Leicestershire might want to down-scale to a bucket in a ditch on the Isle of Man.'

Spatulas are MUCH better than wooden spoons.

I have 3 of those.

I have only 4 kitchen chairs because there are four of us and we have no mates.

oh I have 2 spatulas as well
large flat ended wooden spoon cats pyjamas for non stick large pans though...
And you cannot make decent porridge with a spatula

Or cream butter and sugar properly

Oi, what about us lot who live in buckets, where are we meant to retire to?

Tis one of the better ditches round here...

I am a new driver, I didn't know about frost on windscreens, so I keep wooden spatula in the car now.

v effective

Cream butter and sugar properly?? What's wrong with the electric mixer?!

SIX kitchen chairs, Caitlin?
A little extravagant!

I have 5 wooden spoons and three spatulas

I am obviously a conspicuous consumer

Spatula Envy!!
