JSO wankers turned up to court expecting a suspended sentence, but instead, some got 20-24 months. :D

Broccoli has great properties but they are lost if you boil

Steam Your Broccoli

and enjoy the benefits, I eat it often. :)

Broccoli is great and I agree steaming is best. Wash thoroughy beforehand.
Sprouts, spinach. I hated them as a nipper but love them now. I nibble broccoli florets while prepping. And broccoli stems? Just great!

Interesting, I think I'll give that a try. I hardly ever use my steamer because I couldn't be arsed to clean it for the sake of one veg. :)

When I went down this trading path at BA I struggled to understand how to use a Stored Value.

So today I am proud to say I have written my first code in python, pretty simple really it just tell me what the temperature is in my town

we do a mix of broccoli and cauliflower as part of a veg infused macaroni. plenty of extra mature cheddar, garlic and parmesan to add punch. again, just steam the veggies for half the normal time and add to the macaroni before heading to the oven.

btw - seems it's just us leftie tree huggers talking about this stuff :D :)

Just purchasing a shower hose for £7, Amazon offered me a £5 discount simply for adding another card to my wallet. I didn't even have to use the card and can probably remove it now, after paying £2 for my shower hose. :D
