After one and a half packs I sit flushed with success today having mastered the instructions on the Oats So Simple – porridge to you and me – packet. If it were “so simple” why is it that all previous extracts from my microwave have resembled either putty or a mikly slop? For microwaved sawdust this actualy tastes pretty okay and will combat the winter chill exacerbated by old tight arse sat here trying to deny British gas more access to my wallet.
Only nineteen years till my winter fuel allowance….

Willy think about it. Electric costs more than gas that’s why I never use my only to look at flame effect electric fire. Knowing you , you will have had that many attempts with the microwave it would have been cheaper to put heating on.

Steve – don’t bother with that watery stuff. A full box of Premium Scotts porridge oats is about £1.20. Half a cup of oats with a full cup of milk. 3 mins in microwave on “medium” then a 1 min 10 sec blast on high. Perfect results every time.
