  2. I don't like throwing food away, When there is leftover turkey after Christmas here is a great recipe for the following days after the 25th. 150g Bacon cubed 4 fresh thyme sprigs 1.5kg leeks, trimmed and sliced 1 table spoon of olive oil a knob of butter plus extra for greasing 800g cold cooked turkey breast meat or a mixture of brown and white meat ( whatever you prefer or have left over) 50g plain flour 1.2 litres chicken stock 50ml double cream 1 x 375g pack chilled ready-rolled puff pastry 1 egg beaten salt and freshly ground black pepper SERVES 6 Preheat the oven to gas mark 5 190 oC Heat a large, dry frying pan, add the bacon cubes and thyme and cook over a medium to high heat for 3-4 minutes. Add the leeks to the pan with the olive oil and a knob o butter. Reduce the heat to low and soften for ahout 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, so that the leeks don't stick. Add the turkey to the pan and stir through. Mix in the flour and then pour over the stock. Stir until mixed and then add the cream and season to taste. Bring to the boil and then take the pan off the heat. Using a slotted spoon, put the turkey and leek mixture into a large pie dish. If the 'gravy' is too runny for your liking continue to boil and reduce it for a few minutes longer until it thickens. Once the right consistency has been achieved, pour it over the pie filling in the dish. Grease the rim of the pie dish and roll the puff pastry out to the right size to cover your pie dish. Lay the pastry over the top, pinch around the edges to seal and then brush with beaten egg. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes until puffed and golden brown on top. I hope you try this recipe, and love it. You can serve with leftover roast potatoes if the family havnt eaten them all from the previous day, and seasonal vegetables. with love Lavender27

  4. I'll tell them I'm the bliddy Pope if they can leave us alone. Why do they feel the need to knock on peoples doors on any day of the week at any hour.
  5. I'm a catholic.
  6. Hi Marmite-love I have a lilac thin strap bridesmaid dress if that is any good, it's ankle length. You didnt state what colour you wanted. It has lilac roses around the bust and I think its a size 12-14. running away to get married sounds very exciting.

  8. 1. How can you stop Jehovah Witnesses coming to the front door. 2. If they do ring the door bell, what to say to make them go away. I am fed up with them, they disturb the day, when I'm busy, I am not interested in what they have to say and then they try to give me "Watchtower" I am not interested in that either. I did talk to them once and they spouted off about not taking or giving blood. If they are happy not doing that, that is their prerogative. If I wanted to know about JW's I would go and find them, I don't.

  10. talking of pizza. I had been ill in bed for 4 days last week and hadnt eaten much, couldnt get out to do any shopping, the day i was feeling a bit better, i wanted a pizza, so decided to order one over the phone, from pizza gogo, i had no cash, they said i could pay by card at the door. when the driver came, the woman downstairs came out of her flat and said something to the driver. I came down and told him to come into the hallway as the nosey neighbour was there, she heard this and flew at me and came up to my face nashing her teeth, i shook my fist at her and she said 'go on hit me' i told her it wasnt worth it, a car pulled up and a man and woman got out and the woman started on me pointing to her head and nashing her teeth, i said 'sorry i dont know who you are' she said she was her mother, i said you should try to calm your daughter down. the driver still had his motorbike helmet on and i paid by card for the pizza, thanked him and turned to take the pizza up to my flat, and then as i turned the woman kicked me in the back with her foot. i told them i am going to call the police, which i did. she carried on shouting abuse at me as i went to my flat. I have arthiritis and the assault has aggravated this, and the following day, i had pain down my leg. The police came within the hour and i told them the account of the assault, they didnt write anything down they just listened and told me i provoked this attack. they left and went to talk to said woman and left. havnt heard anything since, i was very shaken and now the pain has travelled to the left side of my body. anyway pizza gogo are fab.
  11. Really !

  13. True Story I was on an early shift, it was a dark dark morning and the snow had fallen overnight, I still lived at home. Mother always liked to do the washing on a Sunday night so all her boys had clean working clothes for the week. I tip toed about to get ready trying not to make too much noise, the creaking floorboards that I was familiar with I tried to miss, but having a tank full of booze the night before I was still possibly pissed and bounced off a few things and misjudged the creaking floor. I managed to leave through the back door and into the yard, it was nippy and with my tool bag on my shoulder proceeded very slowly down the path to the gate. I looked ahead and saw a ghostly figure standing at the fence, it didn't move, shitting myself, I called out 'hello, what do you want' 'why are you standing at my gate' they did not answer, they did not move, I approached with caution as i rummaged around for a weapon in my bag, when all of a sudden there was a slight breeze and it moved towards me, my weapon at the ready and realised I was attacking my mothers frozen flannelette nightdress!!!

  15. Is it right for someone to leave their car running for a long time, in residential area, when they are not about to drive off. Not sure if anyone was in the car or not , the fumes were coming into my living room, I shut the window. It was running for about 10 minutes and this has happened before. I am not sure who this car belongs to.

Thank you Angel, for making me laugh at 7am this morning, that's set me up for the day.
  17. I lick my knife sometimes. Also use my t shirt as a napkin.
  18. why is it that when i click on private messages and see 3 in the inbox, and when i then click on the inbox i don't see the last new message and it gets deleted and there is only 2 in the inbox instead of three. Most annoying.
