Hi All Can someone please tell me whereabouts I would find the mince pie/Xmas cake recipes that someone recommended on here the other day? I have tried the search but couldn't get anywhere with that. Trying to get some Xmas baking in hand if I can. Many thanks

Hi Kat Glad to be of help - you will get all your meds free (regardless of what you are on). I was surprised at this info too but you are entitled to everything free. Bluebell x

Hi Kat If you have an underactive thyroid then you should be getting your prescriptions free . My GP made me aware of this when I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid. I had to apply for an exemptions card which you then show to the pharmacist when collecting prescriptions. Hope this...

Re: Can anyone recommend a sweetener without bitter aftertas Thanks everyone for all the different suggestions - Splenda does seem to be very popular. I have been using xylitol (brand name Total Sugar) which is quite good. Total Sugar is 2.70 for 225grms . They all seem to be quite expensive.

Re: Can anyone recommend a sweetener without bitter aftertas Just looked at the packet of Total Sweet and it is 4g carbs per 100g of which sugars Zero. GI value of 7 and suitable for diabetics. Aspartame free. Very nice although a little on the expensive side.

Thanks for the link Yorksman - I have bookmarked this one as it looks good. Have found the Blue Dragon noodles in Tesco so have ordered them on my shopping for this week's delivery. Happy Chinese Cooking!

Thank you so much for the info Yorksman - your picture looks delicious. I am off to Sainsburys for a look - I love Chinese dishes and have just received a Chinese cook book by Ching-He Huang who was on television with her Chinese cooking. Unfortunately, we dont have a Chinese Wholesaler here...

I use one of those exercise steps and do so many minutes on each leg. I find I stick to this regime as it is so easy to just pick up the step and do it anywhere, anytime. I have bought various gadgets over the years but find this just as useful for what I want. Simple but it works.
