    BB July of last year?:( As for £2 on 7 pack - what a horrible price!:eek::rotfl: Didn't we see them at 80p in T? Horrible shape anyway - an odd number, just wrong!:rotfl: No doubt a pack size deduction 'excuse' from a proper 8 that maybe isn't reflected in the inflation figures! Alright, on that jollity, goodnight!:wave:

    Two months? They'll be fine! Probably take ages to get them out of the cans as they will have stuck to the sides - I know that from experience:o:o:rotfl:. Seems you'll be having beans and beans and beans then for the next few weeks:rotfl:. Obviously I leave it to you to make any judgements as to whether they are safe or not though:cool:.

    [EDIT: Canned beans - apparently up to 1 year in the pantry:

    http://www.eatbydate.com/proteins/beans-peas/beans-shelf-life-expiration-date/.

    So, according to that, you'll be fine and maybe no need to rush as much as I suggest, but obviously depends on the specific way yours have been stored etc. Just may take a bit of strength to get them out of their cans:rotfl: - obviously not all cans on the same day but as and when after they are each opened.]

    Can I ask a question about sausages? :o

    I've messed up the meal plan OH left for me :whistle: and it means I'm a day behind with my sausages. Will they be ok one day OOD? or will they kill the children? :o :cool:

    TS you needn't answer.......you've built up immunity to things that grow on OOD food :eek: :p

    Can I join in the group hug for Sal too......I'd like to be on the outside though :)

    This is going to sound dodgy, but give them a whiff. If they've gone off, you'll know ;)

    It looks lovely, gissus a slice :D

    On a related note, I found out today that the M&M cake today made over £75 at the charity event. They ended up selling it by the slice.

    I am very impressed with the meal plan - very organised.

    Sniff the sausages - this does not work if they are heavily spiced or herby ones - off sausages stink so you can soon tell.
    Having said that our fridge is set at 3 degrees and nothing ever goes off

    Then if there is no off smell cremate the sausages serve with loads of veg and mash and gravy and the kids wont mind :D This is how we usually have them - sausages not the kids
    - don't get distracted by stray vicars on the doorstep - otherwise it will be a side order of burnt tea towel again.

    Glad the lymph glands are clear - well worth going private if you get results in such a quick time and anyway there is always something else to worry about.
