Hi All

How long will tinned tuna last if I make it up with salad cream on Sunday eve then keep in tuppaware for packed lunches, will it make it until Friday's packed lunch?

I HATE opening tuna.

I really wouldnt do this, I have a three day rule for things stored in the fridge. I would open the tuna and take half mix with salad cream, and freeze the other half to do the same 3 days later.

Edit, being nosey here Why do you hate opening Tuna?

Been to Mr T today and spent £26.35 on loads of value items. Hopefully won't spend anything for the next 4 days as working (at least 12 hour shifts aren't conducive to spending):rotfl:

I live in London so not sure where I could go to forage...will have a google as berries are pricy!

Even in London its not too much of a problem depending whereabouts.I lived in London for most of my life and with a little head scratching usually managed to find somewhere.Plus of course you have some smashing street markets which have died out a lot where I live now .As long as you remember where to pick on a blackberry bush in the city.Nowhere lower than about 18 inches from the ground (dogs etc :)) I was on a 'city walk' a few weeks ago along the Thames pathway and saw lots of blackberry bushes growing wild along the towpath If you have anyone who is ....erm a little on the elderly side get chatting to them and ask about areas locally.Most old dears like me love to help if we can;) one good thing about blackberries they will grow almost anywhere

Not sure if you can do it in UK but when we lived in Ireland we cancelled Sky and used the box to get "free to air" satellite channels. Free to air and free to view are not quite the same. We had to programme some of them in but I think there is site on Wikipedia? that has all the codes. The BBC codes change from time to time but you can usually track them down. We got stuff like Granada and some of the commercial channels too. HTH.

Cancel Sky and the box becomes all but Freesat in name.

Well done
