    In case any of you haven't seen it, there is now a facility to rate your packer on the AF forum.

    Great idea.

    The Worksop site is now closed completely (had been reduced to just Fri and Sat opening) but collection from the warehouse is still possible - my delivery was just a glitch.

    I checked out the 'fish dressing' (curious minds need to know these things you see) and it's actually breadcrumbs - aka the orange sprinkles you get on prepared fish.

    HTH

    BTW - anyone see AF on the One Show last night?
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    I had visions then of you wearing a nosebag & snuffling your way through it.:rotfl:
    My first order I was so excited, I opened loads of different things & snuffled my way through until I felt quite ill.:rotfl:

    I'm hoping that they get the granary bread mix in again. I missed it last time.
