I'm with EE and I can't even phone customer services, the phone wont do it, I have to borrow a phone if I want to phone them, and because I'm on Pay as you go they'll charge me 25 p for the privilege.

crikey! at least it's free with o2.

It's so long since mine was washed it has green stuff growing on it!

My last one was like that, luckily green and black go quite well together

I've never listened to the Archers but I thought it was about farming rather than computers?

So much to learn

I might go listen to another few episodes while I have my bath, it must be coming up to Easter there now

Just used an old tip off here.It was for cleaning the dark mould stains off sealant.Now the shower is down to only two users,i put down bleach then covered it with tissue paper,left for one hour.Hey presto when removed it is cleaner.Rinsed and dried it off.Left it to dry off,then a bead of sealant over the top.Fiddly ,yes but it looks better.Now we must dry it off after every shower.Keep it clean.

It was Easter when you last had a bath....?

A better class of procrastination, certainly!

A perfect description for this thread!

TVC made us cauliflower cheese for dinner

View attachment 144462

Looks so good.

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

Has that got bacon in it? If so then top marks. And some

I agree.

Bacon and mushroom. Three cheeses in the sauce, and the cauli was locally grown and still had mud on it. Much more flavour than the supermarket versions.

Cauliflower cheese and bacon????

You are starting to sound like a Sainsburys advert with wierd additions to staple dishes @The Velvet Curtain .

You really must try it! It will be your favourite new dish.

Cauli cheese with bacon is delish.

I agree.

I have now put the necessary ingredients on the shopping list. It's ages since I made cauliflower cheese and bacon, Mr K and I absolutely love it, though we prefer the bacon grilled and the cauliflower cheese served over it. I cook the cauliflower in the microwave with a small amount of water which then goes into the sauce. After the cheese is added to the sauce I put the cauli into the saucepan, mix and serve. We prefer it unbrowned.

Looks like I've set the trend, Cauliflower cheese all round.

And for the sake of Potsy, you can buy it pre made at Tescos.

It must be a Northern thing.

Quite possibly. I remember having it in the hospital canteen when I was a student nurse back in the 80s. They also introduced me to proper cheese and onion pie which I'd never had either. Yummy. It was one of the first things I made when I moved out of student accommodation.
