I have never seen a kid so keen to read a school book before - even taken it to bed to read it - oh noooooo. any way - your sausage hotpoint looks unhealthy, unappetising, unfilling and un nutritious.

Or they would, but this time only one of them has made it to the plate ... I wonder why is that? Because you're out of traction - but that would not really qualify as a reason, would it? to deprive you of one of them. Are these sausages meatfree, like the yoghurt you showed us a few days back that was dairyfree?<br />Best wishes nonetheless, X-TM, keep looking forward and hoping for the best!
