-

Val's is lovely and I'm not just saying that because she beats me if I don't!

Hope that helps

... can you ask Val where she gets her muslin from? I can't find any locally, well other than stuff for cosmetic use, which is expensive.
-
She couldn't find anywhere that sold reasonable amounts so she pops spices and stuff into old pop socks (I think they've been washed :) )
-
... you think?? ... well I might give it a try ... as it clearly hasn't killed you off ... yet!
-
Can normally find it in fabric stores. It's fairly cheap per metre. There's a few online fabric stores that will happily ship you a metre or so of it. Probably way more than you ever need since it comes in either 45" or 60" width :)

No, Val's old laddered pop-socks haven't killed us off yet :)
She's busy stringing chilli peppers to dry at the moment -

John - am still feeling slightly queazy at the thought of old laddered pop socks having a second life in a culinary pickle - just wondering - what re-use will you be making of Val's plastercast when this is removed?

Well when they're washed they're as hygenic as anything else, I expect.
As for the plaster cast.... there must be some use for them but darned if I can think of one.

put the 2 pieces together and use it to grow a HUGE carrot in????
-
Nice One!! :)
-
I got it - long show leeks!!!
-
.. on your sweet peas!!
-
Well, would you all think good thoughts at Val's ankle so they take the plaster off next Thursday and I may be saved from any more shopping.
Have to go to Sainsbury later - Milk and cat food. Poor old cat loves Sainsbury's cat food so I don't begrudge getting that.
-
Don't get too excited John - now she has got out of the habit of chore shopping Val's ongoing recuperation plans probably won't involve taking it up again - after all, she won't have been carefully teaching you how to spot a yellow label bargain at 50 paces for nothing....
How lovely that Val can just hand you a list for you to do it (and pay for it), leaving her to get on with other less mundane things!!! Good on you Val! :tongue2:

... with popsock ... or popsick as I just typed :lol:
