Not sure if talking about children or pet rats

Children, pet rats are disease free!

In the last 3 years, I have had more bugs than I have had in the last 20. First my nephew came along and spread his plague everywhere and then my lad came along to continue the biological warfare.

I think it is a secret plan that the children have come up with to kill off all of the older people.

I think I've dodged it. I don't know how, but so 3 days later I still haven't been ill. Now I've said that, i hope I haven't jinxed myself... It'll be just my luck if I get ill now!

Same here! Despite literally being puked over a couple of times, I seem to have escaped getting it, unlike the wife who had it around the same time as my kid.

Which is unusual, usually I catch them easily and the wife is the one with the cast iron stomach. :lol:

My sister sent me a slow cooker as I have just moved in on my own. I tried one of the recipes in the instruction booklet, but overfilled the pot slightly.

Judging by the mess, this marks both the first and last time I use a slow cooker

Try something not from the booklet, they can be very good when done right and when it is a a good recipe.

This one I did the other week and it was very nice. Mostly it could be done in a job but the flavours were much better from slow cooker as they could come together over a long time.

• 1 Onions (Chopped)
• 300g Lean Beef Mince

Directions
Step 1

Think I'm coming down with an eye infection, had a massive spot on my eyebrow a couple of days ago but now the area around the eye is swollen and painful.

I jinxed myself. I feel dizzy and sick.

Don’t tell me that!

My slow cooker was my greatest purchase, tend to stick something on before work and it's perfect by the time I get home; curry, chilli, stew etc

got an offer from Birkbeck University of London, and waiting to hear from University of Sussex before i decide

beyond excited tbh

Won my pokemon cards tournament today, netting me 22 packs (I won a box but split it with my friend, who was my opponent in final round) and a huge leap in my competitive career. Considering chasing the worlds invite aggressively now - it's genuinely within reach. It would be a stretch, but it's possible...

Congratulations

On a similar note I keep pondering this idea, if I did it'd be via the Open University rather than a normal one. Think it's probably come back to the front of my mind as with the company I'm currently working for there is now an even slimmer chance of a career with them than before due to a restructure of the management over the company. If I did start a course in September/October this year I'd only be 8 years late starting, that makes me feel really old!

It's either that or make a real effort to get a new job but the problem with this option is I still have no idea what I'd want to do.
