If you can I would go for it it is like stepping back 20 years we love it.Not even looked at property yet!! met a couple from near us who sold up and bought on IOW about a year ago with no regrets at all apart from the Friendly Welsh folks and our mountains.
Our Goal is 10 years hopefully all things being well.

Nothing in or out of freezer today

Lunch hm veg soup/hm chicken soup

Dinner cheese pie and chicken and beans/Glamorgan sausage.calcannon and salad
Dessert banoffi pie/fresh fruit and HM yoghurt

Cathy

Yes, it's out, I've just picked it up this afternoon - just came on to tell MNR lol, it has 2 free teabags in it!

Has pic of chocolate dipped honeycomb on the front, is sealed up this month and has the Christmas Harvest recipe book in it (the root veg and rice galette looks very tempting, will try making that).

I was straight on Right Move after I got home! I'm surprised how relatively cheap it is over there. Though guess the salaries are all relative (and the bus fares are a shock after subsidised London buses :eek: ). I really want to get out and have a look round all the coastal towns, starting with Bembridge and the quaintly named Seaview

b) assume they are no good for human consumption, unwrap them and leave them down the allotment near the shed for the foxes to eat so at least their little birdie lives don't end up being a complete waste

Welcome to the thread I like the sound of option b) ^ although I don't eat meat it would be better the birds didn't die for nothing and the foxes would love it.. Though I'd probably eat it, if I ate meat, it can't really go off in there?


Today:
Breakfast - usual yoghurt/granola and OJ
Lunch - nothing, was out at appts though did stop for a drink with a friend and then naughtily picked up some ready prepped pineapple from Waitrose to have when I got back - was very nice.
Dinner - not sure yet, got tons of veg in the fridge, may have a hm bean burger with corn on the cob, griddled hot chilli peppers and potato wedges - all from the allotment.

Nipped to waitrose after work.

Feta and roast veg higgidy pies ys for 59p each the multi buy offer still stood so instead of £1.20 (which was a bargain) 20p! So they are in the freezer.

Fish finger sarnies for dinner.

Great bargain, I would have had those!
I looked at the Higgidy pie offer in Waitrose today but at 2 for £2 each iirc, but relented due to having stuff in the fridge I should really cook..

Thanks you I don't have that one better get OH to take for the 70 mile round trip next weekend:-)I wish they would post it out to card holders.
Bembridge and Seaview are beautiful villages we hated the capital Newport(but always hate capitals) Ryde we love and Shanklin and Sandown.
Did you go to Osbourne house,St Mildreds church,carisbrooke Castle,or the Zoo???
Quarr Abbey is a beautiful place and the tearooms are fab HM cake and other meals.

I'd never cope with a 70 mile round trip from my fave shop (and mostly the only shop I really go in these days). It's a long way to go for a mag! albeit worth it for the shopping.

I think if I stayed in the IOW I'd like to be near Waitrose.. I didn't like Newport at all, seemed a bit chavvy in parts though the bits round the edges towards the downs were lovely. But saying that looked good for shopping and unavoidable as a bus user as they all converge there. I only saw a bit of Cowes and Newport then onto AJ/GF but as I didn't take my car (and relied on buses) it was time consuming to get about - would definitely drive if staying over. I will add the Abbey tearooms to the list (all the coastal towns are on it) plus Calbourne (sp?) water mill where they make the flour is somewhere else I'd like to see.

Out of freezer: one portion of homemade soup, one portion HM chicken tikka and one portion of HM tomato sauce for ratatouille to use up all the random vegetables in the fridge (brussells sprouts, yellow and red peppers and red onions.)

In: nothing :j

cathybird

Thanks all for your answers. I'll defrost them tomorrow night and see how they are. If they smell OK, I'll go for it.

No freezer movements.
Not a lot of space in freezer so left some of the Shepherd's Pie out last night.
Had a busy day.
Doctors this morning - lost more weight - go back in 6 weeks for another weigh in. Had all the non invasive tests to try and discover cause of weight loss. Up to me if I go down the invasive investigations route.
Cleaning and moving furniture this afternoon so had easy dinner. HM Shepherd's Pie + whoops sprouts, brocolli and carrots.
