Long as it's only a teaspoon you're fine Pickle. Though if it escalates to tablespoons of the gear then we may have to rally round and offer an 'intervention'.

This involves being 'talked down' by a bunch of well meaners all toting quarts of vegetable stock.

It could be worse. According to them. Don't b@stard well see how though.


But 'Barbie Girl' is a fine tune and you're giving your children a fantastic exposure to popular culture. Especially as their mother has a burgeoning Bisto jones and all.

Freak!


Although I do make instant cake by shoving a spoonful of oats immediately followed by a spoonful of mixed fruit in the mouth. Recommended.

That recipe is not cake, judging by the quantity of fruit, it's a de-luxe muesli on the hoof


although you need a swig of full fat milk as the final ingredient.

...with good sounds on of course (Jeep AND whilst cooking).


...filling one's face with berries of any kind while at a 'pick your own' farm, paying for picked fruit with juice dribblin down chin, then having to wait days before being 'ready' to eat them due to prior ashamed gluttony !

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
