I don't know - depends where they're bought. I always treat the half ones, or portion ones, as halves - although they probably aren't. Yet "Whole" cucumbers come in different length to one another - I always pick the longest I can see:D. As they're whoopsie on this occasion though, I wouldn't put too much on this at the moment, as whatever size they were, it's made some 'saving'. Unless we want them to pay us to take cucumbers away or something:rotfl:.

Savvy - surely it is not just the length that is important, but the girth too

With any product like that, to make sure you get the best value weigh a few items, and buy the heaviest.

I often do this with prepacked, fixed price produce like bags of apples - I just buy the heaviest pack and it often works out cheaper than loose product.

good morning all...


Happy Birthday to all those celebrating whether that be today or tomorrow or even at the weekend...
I have 3 friends with birthdays tomorrow so its a busy week for us


I've not had a sucessful shopping experience over the past few days and most of it I put down to the fact that either a OH or son has been with me so my concentration has wandered and they have not stuck to the carefully crafted lists!


I guess you win some and you lose some with the glitching lark so I wont give up yet...but I do need to become more focused on what I'm actually buying and in what order/shop!


need to make 50 cupcakes today for my friends celebrations over the next few days so best get on with the first batch...

Just wondered has anyone put a fence up on the side that is actually the neighbours side?

We have a knee height fence at the moment which gives us full view of the neighbours - so we have no privacy. So we keep considering putting up a full height normal sized fence but fixed on our side if you know what I mean?

is it legal?

I would always do my best not to offend neighbours so would be inclined to consider getting a dog and ask your neighbours if they would mind you paying for a replacement fence for them to make sure the possible future dog won't get into their garden. You might find they will jump at the chance to have more privacy themselves. Our first house had a low fence but we couldn't afford to replace it. We'd have bitten our neighbour's hand off (meaning no need for a dog ) if they had offered to pay for a high fence. Obviously, once fence is in situ you can have second thoughts about pets!

We are talking cucumbers here are we as that is what I did last night.

I discarded any that were going soft at the end.

Morning evryone,

It's not normal for Mum to be talking so much rubbish and not be aware of time and how long ago things happened, but this is how it suddenly become since last wednesday.

Urine infections often cause sudden onset of symptoms like this which, given your mum hasn't been drinking enough, makes this highly likely. The good news is that they are usually easy to treat. Hope you get good news from test results and your mum is on the mend soon.
