Firstly, yep, the quick reply box has temporarily been turned off. Kelly is trialling it for a week to see how everyone copes with it. It is so the site gets more page impressions. There is a thread explaining it in better detail in Messages from BellyBelly.

I for one am going to take a while to get used to it LOL - I use quick reply most of the time unless I am doing a big post.

Cally, eeewww at your DH drinking so much coke, that's making my stomach churn just thinking about it LOL. With the cereal sometimes you need a lot more liquid than you think to make it the right consistency. I did mix up a bit of the rafferty's rice cereal just to see what it was like (the purple one) and I found that I didn't need much water for it at all compared to what farex was like and not so much like wallpaper paste LOL. And yeah, it is exxie, but I reckon the Heinz ones are dearer (here anyway).
