    I've previously bought these 3 for £10 chickens, and thought they were great. You may just have ended up with a bit of a donkey!

    I thought it was horse meat they used, not donkey? :p

    Today's tomato harvest :o I have completely run out of space and tomato ideas now. Why did I plant so many?

    I've also been pickling onions and shallots today :D first time I've ever did the pickling myself.

    :D any food stuff I find goes in the collecting bowl.

    For people who are at war with the dreaded horses tail...... I have found my best weapon yet. I poured a kettle full of boiling water on this lot a few days ago. Makes it go all dead and crispy and easy to dispose of. I know it'll come back because the roots are still there but it's the best way I found of getting rid of it from the paved and gravelled areas. Obviously no good in areas where you have plants you don't want to boil to death though. I have always had problems with it but never on the scale I have this year. It's absolutely everywhere!

  • Christmas cake - I have 2 full ones made 2.5years ago from the cake mix (Delia's) that we bought cheap in T's. I have fed them every few months and they are wrapped in parchment then foil in a tin. I was wondering whether to feed them again & put them in a machine vacuum sealed bag? Thoughts anyone? I think I've fed them already with nearly 1lt of brandy & the dregs would go on them before vacuuming them.

    All this talk of cruising is driving me insane, I'm itching to get booking & we still have no dates for hubby's operations. He won't let me book anything. I NEED a holiday as does he. Sod's law if we booked something he'd have a date during time we booked. SO many cheap transatlantic available at the moment with free flights too.

    FC - worrying time for you BUT just think if someone hadn't ticked the wrong box you'd be sailing along with no idea there was a problem. The problem has been caught extremely early so hopefully they'll have the solution way before you need it. It could be a blessing in disguise & hopefully it is for you.

    Naebb - I can't spell it forwards, let alone backwards. Hope your mother & you are doing OK.

    Rhosy - your daughter & g.children aren't going to be THAT far away, Hugs for you too.

    Rose your daughter looks beautiful & that dress looks stunning on her. The bridesmaids were SO cute too. Bet you're so proud.

    Hugs for everyone I've missed, it was a quick catch up.
