    I love this show, especially the Ed character. He's really evolving as a character with every new appearance on the show and I'm really liking the longer messy hair on him! 😂 All joking aside, it is nice to see you together and how comfortable he is becoming being on screen. I also really like the purple hair, it might be my favorite so far. Very happy your friend is ok. I'm sure you are relieved. I was surprised when you said he, very few people have life long friends of the opposite sex. People find it strange when I tell them my childhood bestfriend of 50 years is a female.

    Hahaha! Thank you so much! Ah I'm to blame for his hair, I cut it as he hates going to the barber and I need to pull my finger out and give it a trim. Yes people can be funny about having friends of the opposite gender but we've always been best friends. He was bridesman at my wedding and I was best woman at his. He's still never forgiven me for the speech.... xx

    Love your videos! Only just discovered that Pringle lids fit the Gu pots. You get such interesting boxes - I tried my first Aldi box this week and got three stir fry mixes, two of which were rotten. The third made soup and the other bits were ok, but although in date were ‘on the turn’. Maybe not for me.

    My husband has also had An Ed cooking experience. Just after we got married, I was cooking. It involved grating several onions so I used the food processor. It was a very hot day and hubby wanted to make blackcurrant slushies. Instead of washing the food processor components, he only rinsed them. From personal experience, I can tell you that onion flavoured blackcurrant slushies are not great

    Am happy for you and your friend, always nice ot get good news. I have given up on keeping cats off the side as I have three of the anoying buggers. Generally speaking one of them sits on the opposite side supervising whilst I am cooking, one sits on the dog food box waiting for her tithe and the other will sit on the floor when he thinks he might get tidbits. So not too bad. Generally I agree with Ed on the vegan sausage roll, the pastry lets it down. It is not awful but not as good as a warm meaty sausage roll. vegan pastry is never all that brilliant but it is far better than it used to be :)
