    Pink Princess, Thanks for the up on MrS's grapes - We love grapes in our house and I will have to go have a look - I got a really good deal in Lidl's the other day as black grapes were only 65p per kilo so I got too big bags (gone in no time :D ) not sure if they're still doing it, but might be worth a look.

    Aldi have green seedless grapes at 69p ;)

    Morning Kaat_Lady, I must ask, where do you get your fantastic emicons from? They are great and this mornings one really cheered me up.

    HereWeGoAgain, I hope you are feeling more yourself today - bad weather always does it for me and we seem to have been having a couple of good days recently, so I'm feeling much better myself, chin up girl, good things always round the corner...

    Hi all, Just a quick question, ive sourced a place fairly localy where i can buy, 1/2 a lamb @ £35 - £40 or a whole lamb @ £70 - £80, is that a good price??

    I'm a townie lmao, so not even sure what a lamb consists of ie all the different bits :o to compare prices from the supermarket/butchers.
