Hairy Bikers chicken korma with rice.

Girls have friends here and they are having pizza, chips and salad (though I don't think they've touched the salad).

Chicken thighs done in the slow cooker with leeks, courgettes and mushrooms - had it with rice, it was yummy. We are going to a party tonight, Mr. Osc says we will probably get chicken something with rice :lol: :lol:

Lol Osc :lol: My mum and dad once ate two roast dinners for a similar reason :D

We're having bought pizza :D Bb spotted them on offer and got one.
There's nothing on TV so we're going to have a film & pizza night, without making it for once :D

We ate out :) I had roast chicken with a lemon and herb glaze, salad and it was supposed to come with fries but I asked for a small jacket potato instead. Becky had a steak burger, Harry had a chicken and rib combo and Mick and Doreen both had beer battered haddock. The kids had pud, but the grown ups had coffee or tea ;)

It was lovely - we ate at The Oakwood, which is part of the Table Table chain :)

Oh there's one of those not too far from us Kaz, must look into it :)
It's near Bb's mum & dad so might be a good idea :)

We ate at Pizza Hut, at the side of the M6 :lol:
We tried several places in the city centre...Nandos, Pizza Hut, Bella Pasta, Home Made Burger Co, Wagamama, Del Villaggio ...but all had long queues waiting for tables and we were all starving so we ended up at Pizza Hut at Wednesbury on the way back to my parents.

I wasn't that impressed to be honest, the base was soggy and John and Joe had ordered it while I'd gone to wash my hands and they ordered one with barbecue sauce which I like on it's own but not on pizza so I only had one small slice. The cheesy garlic bread was nice though.

Roast chicken (Asda Extra Large, £5.43, get two meals from it)
pack of small Cumberland chipolatas (baked in the oven)
a couple of large onions (baked)
Auntie Bessie's pork 'n onion stuffing balls (finished the packet off, only 4 left, so I graciously let Mrs and Master O have 'em)
Auntie Bessie's roast potatoes and midweek roasties (well, I was using up one pack and starting another ....)
microwaved Country Veg (carrot, broccoli, mangetout and sweetcorn)
Colmans' bread sauce mix
Bisto chicken gravy

....... and there's a large number of Ostrich fevvers still floating down from the kitchen ceiling ..... :mrgreen:

Time for a nice cuppa tea (Tetleys!) :D
