    :confused:

    Does she cut the power or something to the cooker and fridge or can you just not cook?

    maybe lisalashe does not have access to the kitchen!

    if this is the case ...it silly! pot noodle is your only option, all this requires is hot water


    ithink you need to explain your situation a bit more in detail - when yuou say no cooker do you just mean no oven or no oven or hob? what about a microwave?

    if you really dont have access to the kitchen, maybe buy a mini fridge for your room. and a microwave.

    Im in ireland. I dont like noodles hate them in fact! I live in the ladys house and we have a bedroom and we eat in the kitchen when she makes food. but we're not suppose to be there at the weekends but i am. and i dont want to have to use her kitchen bcuz then shen knows im in the house and the point of me being allowed to stay weekends is that i wont be in the house much.

    and i cant afford a mini fridge and microwave the room is smaller than a matchbox. its tiny :O

    I don't think she's going to mind you using the kitchen for bare essentials. She's probably more concerned about you having parties and wrecking the place than cooking a dinner for yourself.

    Uhm..otherwise, I can't think of a lot else, other than cup-a-soups! x

    A lot of my friends use digs, although they're in theatre so are always there at weekends.

    I'd find it very odd that you couldn't cook something for yourself, could you cook something during the week to eat at the weekend?

    Sounds like a bit of a bad arrangement if all you'll be eating at the weekends if gunna be cold food.

    Beans? Yum cold beams. You could always buy a ready made sandwich from somewhere? I don't think eating crisps and chocolate for 2 days is going to be a fun plan
