    Good afternoon everyone, it was a lovely sunny morning in East Anglia but the skies look ominously dark now.

    I've been mia due to real life so am miles behind but well done to everyone who got lots of fruit and veg - some of the recipes sound delicious.

    A few questions... if anyone has time to answer any of these I'd be very grateful:

    I've just had a go on the higgledypie competition (many thanks for the link) but my arrow keys wouldn't work properly -they took me to one side of the screen then I got stuck there. Has anyone else had this problem?




    Skim reading back, I can't see any other new glitches but wondered which cheese you are referring to Bubbs???




    I've only ever had two home deliveries from Sada. I asked the driver of the last one where it was from and he told me it was a store 20+ miles away (even though my nearest store is about 7 miles away). I didn't think to ask him if all future home deliveries will come from there or not. Does anyone know whether Sada change the store providing home deliveries to the same address or can I assume all my home deliveries will always come from there?

    I've done one C&C at my nearest store and they bought it to me from out the back of the store somewhere (I had to log into a terminal next to Customer Services and wait for them to bring it to me). Does this mean C&C is done in my local store or might they have it delivered to them from elsewhere?

    Hi nenen, hope you're ok hun.
    The click and collect is your (our:)) local one. The home deliveries come from another one for some reason. I asked one day when I wanted something delivered and couldn't find it online even though it was on the shelf. X

    One thing I wasn't sure of... When you've transferred the jam into the jar it says cover... Does this mean with the lid? Or do you put the lid on when its cooled??

    Tia:)

    Yes, I put the lids on right away as they then form a seal as it all cools down. If you put them on once they're cooled then they may not be properly airtight. If you have the little 'popper' thingies in the middle of the lids, they should get sucked down flat as it cools, which shows it is airtight.

    For anyone wanting jam jars, I usually get mine off ebay, the hexagon shaped ones. Usually next day delivery and depending on how many you get, work out about 48p each.
    I make chunky pear, blackberry and cinammon, thats nice, rasperry and lime, and a spiced damson jam which has damsons, oranges, cloves and cinammon.
    All my fruit is organic, thats cause its all free from various trees, bushes etc. Wild raspberries can be found alt around my area and where I live there are loads of red and yellow plum trees and cherry trees.
