[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2329192, member: 25851"] Thanks Ian and Antje. I don't know why I couldn't see anything, but all's well now. Great idea [USER=496650]@zauberflote[/USER]. Be careful what you ask for - you might regret it. All quiet on the Western (Isles) front. Had my flu jab yesterday - made me feel pretty grotty today; first time ever. No 2 son had his yesterday as well but felt no ill effects. Neil has to have his on Monday. We sent the Scenic for MOT but the garage didn't check it - just looked at the tiny stone chip on the windscreen and said it would fail. So we had to order a new one - took a week to get it, so the car has been illegal since Sunday. Had to use it though, to get to the pop-up clinic - only about 5 miles away. Scenic is currently at the garage getting the new windscreen put in. It will go for MOT on Thursday. Then we will be legally driving again. Em has been coming in on her way home from school but a couple of days ago, she rapidly went to the larder and I asked her what she was looking for (silly question, that was obvious) but, quite openly, "My after school snack" - of course. I think you call it cupboard love, she loves my cupboard. She was using the laptop today to key in some notes about Guru Nanak - she had RE today. So I asked her about other faiths she's learned about - Mohammad? (didn't ring any bells), Buddha? (just a puzzled look but then she remembered a small brass ornament she used to play with), Jesus? (a slightly withering look), Abraham? (shrugged shoulders), Moses? (who was that? But then she remembered the story of the baby in the basket, but had never heard of the Commandments). I gave up then - no point flogging a dead horse). She tried experimenting with chocolate, mint milk - milk with a large spoon of Nutella and what looked like a handful of mint imperials. Not a successful experiment although she said she could taste the mint despite them not melting in the hot milk. (Very sticky clump of mint "eggs" left behind. It's good for her to experiment and see what works, or not.) Next time she comes, she wants to make a fridge cake to take home (biscuits, cream etc, so I'll need to add biscuits to my shopping list).
