    Trying to snow here a few miles east of Darlo:)

    Nice pic again David.

    Saw you mentioning a few days ago industrial theme photos. Reminded me of these taken by an old acquaintance of mine. Brilliantly captures the desolation and character of places like South Bank (Boro not London:rotfl:):rotfl: when in decline in the 60s/70s due to the death of steelmaking and shipbuilding. South Bank used to be known as "slaggy island" in it's heyday.

    Keep reading on different forums today people having trouble with mice in their sheds. I understand that some peanut butter is very tempting to them!

    Artha - this whoopsie shopping is a challenge in our area - they keep changing the times in our stores. Last monday I got 6 hot x cross buns for 24p at 2.30 in sainsbury, on wed they were 84p at the same time (probably the same amount on the shelf). My local tesco I have yet to hit at the right time - I think it is now quite late in the evening which doesn't suit me. I would rather chill out than go out on the hunt especially in winter. Asda has so many people on a sunday afternoon you have to be so lucky to be near the counter as the times vary. Very interesting thread on potatoes on food shopping. Last year I had bags of spuds everywhere - this year they are so expensive and never ys.

    The easiest tea loaf you will ever make:)

    13oz mixed fruit
    5oz sugar
    Half a pint of hot strong tea
    11 oz SR flour
    1 beaten egg

    Soak fruit and sugar in tea overnight
    Next day add flour and egg and mix well.
    Put mixture into lined loaf tin and cook for one and a half hours in a medium hot oven.

    Eat with lurpak:)

    Looks good, is that a 2lb loaf tin please?
