It is difficult to make a cheese sauce with no butter for the roux. Wife has been dispatched to the shop to procure the dairy product whilst I finish steaming the cauliflower. Doh!

Nothing in this house is knotted.

Butter is a staple... Used in cake baking so there is always some in... I bought 3 packs today just to be on the safe side!

My microwave has died, it will be buried tomorrow morning at 9 o/c at the skip along with all the wrappings of the new one that I had to buy this afternoon.

Is there a local school or nursery that might like it in their 'mud kitchen'? I'm only saying that because I have just started working in our school nursery and there is an old microwave in the mud kitchen which the children enjoy `cooking' with. FYI, a mud kitchen is a place outside where children can play cook with a range of old pots and pans, spoons, jugs etc. They bring in water and compost or sand and have a great time. They all keep a pair of wellies in the classroom and we have sets of waterproofs when the weather gets more wintery.

I'm sorry - but as any Swede will tell you, vodka should be kept in the freezer.

Actually, it should be taken out of the freezer and drank, I think you'll find. Unless it's midweek in Sweden, in which case you can leave it there until Friday night so they don't mark you down forever as an alkie.

That looks too thick to be bacon in with the coliflah. Gammon maybe?

It is bacon, from the Cheshire Smokehouse. Some of the best thick cut bacon going.

No you will wake up in the middle of the night needing the loo

No fluent Burton on Trent, it's as Indian as a tikka masala.

But aren't you curious to see what is going to happen next ?

Do you mean 'what sort of PC nonsense the script writers are going to dream up next'?
