    How clean is your oven and how often do you clean it?

    I tried once cleaning it myself using some oven cleaner I got from the supermarket. I almost passed out from the fumes! Now I just get a professional in once a year and it comes out spotless. The chap dismantles everything, including the glass doors.

    Mattress advice

    You spend around a third of your life in bed (sleeping or otherwise). Invest in something decent. I've used Tempur matresses and pillows for years and can't recommend enough.

    iPhone 5 Wi-Fi slow and unusable connection when using WPA, WPA2

    Yep. I had very similar issues with mine. I could connect but it would not stay connected or auto-reconnect to known networks. It was really annoying. In the end I tried playing around with the auto-reconnect setting and resetting the handset and it seems to have fixed it. Connection is now...

    T-Mobile HSPDA - 380KBPS?

    I've now got this problem having just received my Sensation. Do you reckon I'll have more luck going into a T-Mobile store? Or will they just fob me off to CS? I might have to quote the distance selling regulations and, in the worse case, return the phone and go to another provider.

    Tofu eaters

    You don't have to press the tofu, it depends on how you're cooking it. If it fresh, it's pretty tasty in clear broths/soups. If you're doing a stir fry, the pre-fried tofu is a better option.

    Fun, economical coupe/hatch for £10k?

    Remap your Golf. For a few hundred quid, it's quite a cheap solution.

    FM transmitter opinions?

    If you have Bluetooth, get an io-play. Decent bit of kit.

    Sainsburys feed the family for a week for £50 - challenge?

    It's just about possible. Substitute fresh for frozen / tinned. A lot of it is almost as nutritious as fresh, but might not taste as good. Also, buying in bulk helps as well.

    Cooking idiot. How to cook chicken fillet?

    Don't roast chicken breasts in the oven. It becomes really dry. To be honest, I always prefer chicken on the bone for cooking, with the exception for stir frys.

    Best eating out experience?

    Been to Locanda Locatelli a few times and that's a nice place to have dinner. Best overall food experience though was at various restaurants throughout Thailand. You just randomly stumble into these places and the food there is bloody amazing, and dead cheap too!

    Thick/syrupy balsamic vinegar

    It's aged balsamic vinegar. I tend to buy Belazu, but it's 12 quid for a small bottle. Flavour is intense. It's not acrid like the cheapo stuff and is great for dressings.

    Your best steak recipe!

    It's all about the quality of the meat. I like a bit of bone on mine (ooer missus!) to keep things juicy e.g. prime rib. Also, don't overcook which is where thicker cut will help. Also allows you to get a nice 'crust' yet be rare in the middle. Salt and pepper as standard. Add whatever herbage...

    Alternative sides - no potato!

    Nobody has mentioned rice? Goes well with most kinds of foods ... When you want something light, a salad maybe? Something interesting, not just lettuce slapped on a plate!

    Chicken or Beef?

    Sprinkled with cheese, what on earth are you thinking man? :confused:

    Which job?

    Why did the hiring manager offer you the job in the first place? Seems to me their interview process is a bit lax.
