I must admit, it is my favourite soup bread.

ANY!
I used utterly butterly but any butter, spread, suet or reserved fat from a roast would work. :A Every moment is a gift. That's why we call it the present.!:A

I think my experience of sms is they vary, my local m&s ys about an hour or two before closing time and then again further reductions about 1/2 hour before closing, hth
I don't end my month till Monday, but am going to put anymore spends on May, as its all surplus to requirements. See you over the other side, its such a shame the thread has to be split like this, surely there is another way to do it.0 -
