    Urgh! A friend of mine I haven't seen in a while who I invited the wedding has just sent me a text to say sorry she hasn't sent back the RSVP yet but her and her now BF will come. He was not named on the invite and we're likely going to let it slide and just let him come but I am really annoyed that she didn't ask first. I would never assume to bring my OH unless otherwise stated and I would just ask if it would be okay.

    Rant over.

    I used to keep a biscuit tin filled up here. I love them but I got banned (politely banned) because a couple were on a diet and it was too tempting so now its my own private one. I love them!

    I have a massive one in my car. its a regular occurrence that I will plan to go out for lunch but have to cancel because too busy so have tinned soup, cup-a-soup, savoury rice packets, cereal bars, mini packets of cereals and a bag of crisps.
    id say its at least twice a week I have to dive into my car stash before I pass out

    I usually take food in every day for lunch, it's only occasionally I need to go and buy something and when I do its normally crisps, bread roll and a microwaveable soup.

    Al this talk of food lol I love a fish finger sarnie too and homemade chips, I have found a good way to get nice crispy chips or wedges, I cut my potatoes into chip/wedges and boil them until there almost cooked, put them on a baking tray and spray with 1cal spray and pop in the over for 20 mins, I occasionally flip them around and add a little more spray if needed, they come out nice and crispy and I do the same with flavours too xx

    Yeah agree Flossie, but Emily I would be disappointed if I had a roastie that was like a chip as these are simply healthy chips and when I make roast pots id use goose fat, the low cal spray just makes them crispy like a fried chip with a lot less calories xx

    Just been for my appointment with the recruitment agency, it was just an initial appointment to get me registered but they had me doing typing tests and excel tests! I hate stuff like that because my mind goes blank, I only did ok on one of them but fingers crossed it won't effect my chances of getting a job! x

    I guess most potatoes done in the oven are done very similar. Bet par boiling does give them a good crunch.

    If I want a healthy roast potato I just use a tiny amount of oil and stick them in the actifry.. it's surprising how well they actually come out. Once they've been drowned in gravy anyway you really can't tell much difference! I do par boil potatoes if I'm making roasties but never par boil them for chips xx
