Ask for them to change it, has to be divisible by 5.


37.5 divided by 5=7.5

Walked into our management meeting mid conversation this morning as two Poms were talking to each other, I managed to hear "They last 50 years in England" so I chimed in with "What's that, cakes of soap?".

Most laughed, two didn't.

What's your method?

I boil the noodles in a saucepan, drain the water, add the sachet and some cheese spread or grated cheese then mix in.

Boil the kettle then tip the boiling water into the noodles in a bowl then microwave for 1 minute.
Drain then mix in the sachet
