Thanks folks! 
.... I can't open that link Mary so I've fwded it to DH to see if he can do anything with it - thanks very much!
Re heating in the 'good' old days - we had a coal fire in the living room with a damper(?) that you had to get poker in the end of and push up & down when you wanted to heat the water. Other than that we just had 2 paraffin heaters, one in the bathroom and - I can't remember where the other one was but I can 'see' them both.
So - Wednesday 12th May - not doing so good up to now
Breakie - early coz had to go & look after grandson - 2 weetabix, blue & blackberries etc
About 9.30 - piece of toast with Flora really light or whatever it's called - whatever it's called it's disgusting! (Ate it though)
Fun size milky way
Took little Ted to my mother's - had 2 biscuits ..
More later x

Ha Ha ... I guess you're right Iris - I think it's probably more the WAY I ate - especially the milky way and the biscuits - I didn't 'choose' to coz I was hungry I HAD to ... That little Fred took over .....
Lunch - Some 'finest' pea & ham soup & a slice of pumpkin & sesame bread x
Think I'll have to have a kip this afternoon coz I was up early & start work tonight ... HOWEVER it IS my last rota before hols (not that I'm trying to rub it in or anything ) xx

I do like cooking from scratch but I'm not averse to grabbing something out of the freezer or opening a jar of sauce as well
WELL!!!! Have I got the munchies OR have I got the munchies!!!!
This morning at my mother's ... well let's see what i can remember .....
a big rolo cookie
a cream biscuit
a milky way
a piece of toast with clover
a half coated biscuit
.... can't remember anything else ....
On the way home I decided I was going to have a cheese sandwich - only to find we didn't have any bread! I cut a thick slice of cheese anyway - spread a sachet of mayo on it and ate it 'neat'.
Then I had a boots shapers bar - I'm going to have to stop getting these - I find I'm only eating them when I want some chocolate - or is that a good thing?? I've got some chocolate in but it's not too 'bad' ... I dunno ...
Tea - Lamb in a moroccan sauce with rice. Pear.
eat natural kids lunchie
slice of soya & linseed with butter & egg & bacon sandwich filler
I thought I'd better bring a bit more to work or I might be 'pinching' stuff so I've brought ..
Ham salad with balsamic
5 melba toasts with individual pot of phili light
pear
plum
little box of sultana & apple snack (kids lunch thing)
***sigh*** ... here we go again xx
