So does my microwave Incidentally I run a menu on my Excel programme. I
work out the meals for a week + and (mostly) stick to it. I am not averse
to moving things around or even changing them, but I find it much easier

weeks menus too so it is easy to see what we had recently. HTH

Life is so much simpler these days)
