	Throw it away and go out for dinner. Why take a chance of wrecking your weekend with puking and diarrhea? And after 11 you won't be able to flush it anyway. Definitely go out. You deserve it for trying to be a good wife by being economical and freezing it!

Why can't you flush it after 11?

	Bit of an over-reaction to be accused of trying to poison him, seeing as you didn’t see the label until after you had frozen it. It is usually unsuitable for home freezing if it has been frozen before but I saw an experiment on the German programme, Galileo, a few months back that proved this is actually a myth. They couldn’t find any significant increase in (harmful) bacteria in the food if it had been frozen more than once. I would use it in a fish pie but make sure it is well cooked (as you should with all seafood). On the other hand, if the seafood had been out of a chilled environment for a long period (i.e. if you had brought it from the shop then left it out for a couple of hours in the office before you got home) I wouldn’t use it. If in doubt, sleep with a bucket next to your bed the night you serve your pie.

If it's bad it's bad, no matter how long you cook it.

I don't know - there are always people here talking about how they get into trouble if they flush their toilets after 10 or 11pm.

I'm a happy flusher after that time

- the place we live in is built like a fortress.

We are still alive, after hearing about Michael Winner I decided to ask my friend if she wants it for her three cats.Hope the cats survive!

Most of the times (not all) the warnings on the labels are written so that the company doesnt get sued in the 1 in a million chance that something happens. But as previous posters said its seafood. Dont risk it!
