right all you computer nuts out there how do you prepare yours? mine are a bit complex first of all got to find the freezer look at all the bags and boxes not for what is in them but how long do they take! 20 minutes thats good 25 minutes that will do,empty contents on to a oven tray and turn oven on slap everything on to the middle shelf set timer for 22.5 minutes go back to computer,timer goes off, you go and shovel everything onto a tray take back to computer and devour......meat pie,cod steak,sausage,fishfingers, burgers,and a sloppy steakpudding with crust like a rock huumm.

My method is much more convenient:

First of all you hear a creak on the stairs of someone approaching. Then the question: what do you want to eat?

Answer given, creaking sounds retreat.

Some time later (exact minutes not known as normally too engrossed), a tray with food and cutlery on appears.

Down time from computer: 15 seconds. That's broken down into 5 seconds for deciding what I want to eat, and 10 seconds to pick up the tray.

So far Vorlon, I think your method is best.

I am very lucky in that my wife is a very good cook.

The only convenience food we buy is the chicken kievs from Tesco (the creamy filled ones are my favourites), otherwise most other stuff is made from scratch; chicken & mushroom pie, lasagne, paella, steak and dumplings, meatballs, etc, etc.

Mine's quite convenient. I pick up the phone and speed dial the curry house, place my order and have it delivered to the door. Aaah, the Indian takeaway..........definitely qualifies as an emergency service.
