    They don't have those brown ones in loaf shapes, but they have some small loaf tins (think they might be quite small!)...

    Looks good! I will consult my management. :)



    Edit: Sadly the management says that she wants 1lb or 2lb loaf tin size, but thanks so much for looking. :)
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    I just added another link.

    Everywhere else is quite bulk - which could be good if it means more cake for you :)

    If they aren't any good, I would be tempted to ring up Lakeland head office and see if you can find out the supplier - they might be able to suggest other stockists. Also if the customer service is as it used to be, they might be able to see if any stores have any they can send out to you.

    Christopher Maloney is the worst X factor contestant since the McDonald brothers. What a joke. At least that rubbish boy band have been booted off.

    I have cooked up a Jerusalem Artichoke. I don't think I've ever cooked one before - bought as it was 2/3 off.
    Well that's your inulin needs sorted for who knows how long.:beer:

    And on to tonights dinner - trout with stir fry (more ageing veg) and noodles. Trout was also a yellow-sticker buy a few days ago (too long ago to be able to freeze). I'm trying to eat more fish, but it is rarely my first choice. There always seems to be a lot going cheap in Sainsbury's though so I guess I'll be eating more of it.

    Takes me back to my uni days. Flatmates used to disappear for fishing trips and come back with tons of rainbow trout. Actually remember getting tired of it at one point. Pheasant was sold door-to-door as well.

    Seem to remember you can freeze fish for only a few months rather than years as the unsaturated fats chemically oxidise even in a freezer and turn into nasty epoxides. :naughty:

    Loads of good wine deals on just now too, if you've any spare cash :)


    I've been changing my bulbs to LED when I've needed new ones. They save you a lot on paper but I'm not sure how close the reality is.

    I thought of doing that, then Sainsbury had an offer 6 bulbs for £3.20 so I'll wait til they blow. I need the ones with skinny pins, not the ones with inverted nail heads, don't seem to see them on offer.

    Is it OK to mix and match?
