Groan!

My fingernails and thumbnails are throbbing in agony from pulling open roast chestnuts. It hurts just to type or pick my nose!

I bought a huge bag of them and have been experimenting with different ways of roasting them. So far I've found that a high temperature works best, 250 deg, for half an hour. But I still don't know the best way to roast them so they pop open are easy to extract.

Get a tin can and make lots of holes in the sides. Cut a cross in the bottom of the chestnuts and chuck them in.

Put the can in your fire.

They'll be ready in 15 -25 mins.

I'll do you some nibbles - hows about some roasted chestnuts


yum yum

Yes but we were married and he had taken best part of 20k out of the joint a/c and done God knows what with it, oh and I'd found out he was having an affair so I think my reaction was fairly easy going!!

i'm just saying that women are imaginative in finding ways to either get back or get back in touch with people if they wan to

I'd really love a nice bottle of red, shared with some nice company. A nice pleasant, stress free conversation which was at least a quarter about me...possibly with some very nice nibbles NOT cooked by me.

IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR?!!! IS IT?!!!! ******* IS IT?!!!

already done, plus i wiped parents, best friends and my own phone numbers from her phone while paramedics were looking after her, took my keys off her keyring and have today also blocked her from skype and facebook and just to be extra sure/slightly mean i set up a mail rule if mail from <ex gfchef address> then respond "Automatic response: your mail has been automatically deleted and so it's pointless trying to reach [chef] via email or via any other means" and delete

cant be doing with any of her crap but she's a technoidiot so it wont be hard to make sure she cant contact

Jesus.... you were thorough!!

I guess it must still (even though you were the dumper, as opposed to the dumpee) be hard for you.

Hope it all works out ok!

- At least she is out of hospital.... maybe you should block her. Cruel to be kind and all that?
