Of course, I'll get a bumper lot of tinned tomatoes in order to achieve a big enough shop to get a future discount

How often do you throw out cans past their date??

Never! I open them and if the contents look and smell OK then they're used.

If you found a can of beans with 1991 on it, would you open it or sell it on eBay as a vintage bean tin?

Ever had a breakfast in a can??

It contains meat so, no! If it were veggie I'd give it a go just for the novelty

I used to like TV dinners when I was in the US, ever have one??

*they were like airplane food but worse

I've seen them on films and TV but luckily never had to eat one.

Last time I had airline food it wasn't too grim. Asked for vegetarian and it was a veggie curry with rice and a mini chappati. Usually I opt out of the food and take sarnies on board!

Do you take your own food on planes?

Of course, that food makes hospital food look gourmet

Longest you've been in hospital??

I was in three weeks once when young.

Other than that I have only been in hospital briefly, having my kids.

Was your longest stay the one you had about a year ago?

It was my only stay, up until then I'd done A&E but never stayed in

Is childbirth as painful as they say??

It's pretty excruciating. Imagine trying to poo out a bowling ball with spikes and you sort of get the picture

Children....love, loathe or indifferent?

Pretty much indifferent. Spent enough time with them to not want one of my own

What did you have for dinner??

Nothing very thrilling today I'm afraid. Jacket Potatoes, bacon and cauliflower cheese.

I'm glad Mini Twass is so much better Twass. I can't believe she would be better like that already. I was ill for months when I had glandular fever, I have never heard of anyone just having it for a few days like that. Are you sure she really had it?

Have you got many photos of yourself as a baby and very young child?

No. My ex-fiancé destroyed them all

I had broccoli cheese as don't like cauliflower but that's as close as our dinners got

Do you like tuna steak??

I've only had tuna from a tin, never tried tuna steak, I really should give it a try.

Have you heard about these berries, apparently they make acidic or bland food taste sweet ??

Yes I do, I saw those berries on a telly prog last night about foods of the future. They hope to clone what is in that berry so that sugarless foods taste sweet to us...but we don't get the bad health effects of eating too much sugar.

Fibro, my daughter isn't well yet, but feeling a lot better than she was [which was awful] and she saw the doc again yesterday, and will again on Thursday apparently. They seem to think an otherwise fit young person can in some cases mostly recover in 3-4 weeks and she's now in week 3. She can expect to suffer fatigue for some months though it seems.

I've already thunk of what dinner will be tonight.....frozen breaded lemon sole fillet, peas and chips made in my magical air fryer!! Is it sad to plan your dinner before you even had breakfast?

Not usually no, unless it is a particularly interesting meeting but most of them aren't.

I feel a bit fed-up today and I am not sure why. I think that when I feel a bit low it is often other people that make me feel like that. Do people get you down?

Not generally. My natural joie de vivre overcomes most situations Just returned from vet trip and cat shop trip and bank trip, and discovered indoors is chillier than outside....but I have my trusty fleece of uber thermalness and the slanket for any sits. Also had last months lecky bill on the mat....brace yourselves......£15.73!!!! I broke my own personal record for stinginess!!! Get in

Bought some odd bric a brac at the shop, I am a sucker for it, hence why this place is so cluttered......are you a sucker for charity shops?

Not really but I will occasionally venture in. You can pick up some great clothes

What is the last thing you bought from a charity shop?

Two little blue and white china dishes which are now in my bathroom

Much of the contents of my house and wardrobe are from charity shops

Do you let your toast get almost cold before you butter and eat it or am I weird?

Yes you are

Mine has to be buttered the second it pops so it's all hot and melty. Nothing worse than cold toast

What's your favourite toast topping?

Marmite, then peanut butter, then marmalade

If you put the butter on when it's hot it disappears into the toast....I like to see TEETH MARKS in my butter!!!

Have you ever made toast the old fashioned way, on a toasting fork over the fire?
