I am ashamed to admit it is not only the first cake I made with Peter but the first cake I have made ever.

Well the first cake we made was a disaster but things have somewhat improved since that first disaster.

I have baked cakes ever since I was a toddler but the first cake I made in a new fangled microwave oven sat on the lawn for days, even the birds couldn't make a dent in it. :(
When John eventually dropped it in the dustbin you could hear the thud as it hit the bottom halfway down the street.

Ours was like a biscuit sponge. Natalie tells us we didn't mix it for long enough. Going to try again next time Peter is here :)

Good Stuff Russ. My best is just under 23 mins. After a 5 week lay off I'd be happy to duck under half an hour.

Well - another day in hospital and another cast.

But at least it's on the other leg so they can waste away evenly :)

Not sure if I should be happy or not. My op, which was cancelled because of high glucose readings, is now apparently scheduled for May 1. Despite them saying I had to get my glucose levels down, and as I am due to start insulin in May, my sugars won't be better managed now until at least start of June.

Totally confused. Wish hospitals could make their minds up. Now waiting for the pre assessment nurse to call me back to discuss whether to have the op on May 1 or leave it until I've been on insulin for a few weeks.

I'm glad you're back on track. :tu:

My happy? thought - Natalie got a second hand wooden bed frame (with new mattress) at the weekend.

Which is has just been delivered.

Trouble is I've got to take the old metal one apart and build this new one before she gets home and I've got no sight or instructions. I am going to have a great afternoon.

Right now I'm procrastinating ;)

Dirty boy. :) You'll do fine building it. Hope it is all back on track, still waiting for a call back.

Finally called back, and it was booked by mistake. I've got to get my GP to refer me back once I've been on insulin for a few weeks and blood sugars are under control. So realistically looking at middle of June, beginning of July.

I'm a fortnight behind with recent postings here Cobby.
I think the the green card allows you to reside and work in the US?

Do you still keep your UK passport?

And... was/is the packing all done? :shocked:

Happy thought - I went off for some warm spring and I came home to find that it's here too at last. :)

On the weekend I spent a night in a hotel, I meant to order a queen concert on demand from the hotels TV channel, but my mistake I ordered a Justin Bieber concert :(

But to save any embarrassment, on my bill they put it down as Porn :D
