:P there isnt one thats why you cant find it. insight is the key to understanding without insight we are left standing. if you want to spell check, cut and paste into word, then click the little tick button and then cut and paste it all back into the window. short cuts to copy are ctrl+c short cut to paste is crtl+v, funny i dont know the one to cut? hmm ill sort that out later lol. lol stephen hawking? nah string theory is a bit to indepthed for me id keep it simple and believe that sheer randomness creates patterns and order and balance on its own :P string theory summed up in an irratic sentance. Did you hear that stephen hawking managed to cheat on his wife with the maid? lol how the hell did that happen?

P/s make sure your spell check is configured to english uk as it likes to be set to engish american. which makes all spelling worse than my own lol

lol because im callum and i know everything and if there is somthing i dont know ill spend upto 12 hrs researching it to death. my current field of research is lock picking, saw it in a film wanted to know how it works how to do it and how to fabricate lockpicks using rudamentary items e.g a hacksaw blade. the internet is the greatest learing tool ever! also get to know your oven, is it fan assisted, is it just normal, these affect cooking and preheating times. also microwave watt'age (a microwaves wattage is normall found printed on the glass pane of the door with a wavey symbol next to it e.g ~ 650 watts. most packaging of items that can be microwaved will have the wavey symbol on and a wattage next to it with a cooking time e.g chicago town deep pan pizzas are an excellent example next time your down the shops check the box just to get familliar with the symbol etc.

sidenote:- wattage is relivent to the items power consumption and is used as a measurment of cooking ability in microwaves. however this is also a measurement of how bright a lightbulb is e.g 100watt lightbulb (very bright and gets very hot) *energy saving lightbulbs are an exception* they will give a relivant wattage however will use a fraction of that wattage, so a 25watt energy saver will give an out put of 75watts of light.

just to confuse you moreso, energy saving light bulbs rarley fail due to the filament chemically reacting with the gass that is inside the bulb itself causing the metal that is burnt off and evaporated when a current is passed through the fillament to react and redeposit on the fillament, however i am uncertain as to whether this is in random patterns and so causing thicker parts in the fillament which would then affect the current due to it being thicker and so affect is overall energy efficiency. :P hehehe now im just showing off. but seriously if you need any questions answered about litterally anything or need help finding anything on the net give me a shout.
lol epic comment, laters

hahaha you crazy fool. use a glass or pyrex bowl, when it says chocolate you need a dark chocolate (over 50% coco solids) and this method is called a banne marie (not too sure on that spelling) also instead of using a gas cooker, try heating it in the microwave. i have never made rice crispy cakes sucsessfully ever. i gave up after the chocolate went funny because i used cadburys dairymilk choc. (dont put metal in the microwave either) and never leave anything your cooking un attended. as for cookery shows, the bikers are amazing but you need to know the basics as they dont give you any measurements because they are more of an advanced show (they are brilliant by the way dont get caught up on apearances with chefs) anthony warrel thompson has some very good cook books out hes short fat and ginger but by god the man can cook! dont go to WHS its over priced for things that arnt price marked. if your looking for books go to waterstones their staff are very nice and will point you in the right direction. cooking skill doesnt come over night dont worry if things dont work out for the first few hundred trys. start with basic things, try baking potatos, try boiling them. try making gravy if your feeling skillfull. get used to knowing measurements of fluid by eye and not relying on equipment as this will save you time. but if cooking somthing for the first time id recomend following the instructions completely, then if you feel that adding somthing or altering somthing could be better then do it the next time. good luck! and remember making mistakes is all part of learning :D

lol hoovered up a hamster. as for cooking, dont try to be nigella otherwise you will never find your lower half in any picture. go to youtub.com and search for how cook 'item you wish to learn to cook' . with internet serches you do not need to include the words to, the, and, etc. if you needs any help with these new fangled technologies, whether it be nano fabrics or sub atomic particle assebly, i can help. anything to do with technology is my speciallity. im also not a bad cook, i can also sow XD (i blame scouts) but also think of this. if you dont know these skills, which by todays standards are not considered essential, then your kids may not end up having them! also i know a fair bit about gardening (not the crappy show plant type, the type that grows fruit veg and other tasty things) so im available to answer any crazy questions no matter how silly you may think them. good luck on your quest for knowlege/skills and keep us posted!
