    .... and what a disaster that's most likely going to turn out :eek:.

    My building is chock-a-block with auld jakeys, who seem to do nothing else besides shuffling to the nearest off-licence and back. I would hope that MAP would do something to improve their health.

    Just returned from our weekly LIDL shop without any Milbona cholesterol lowering drinks - it looks like they may have been taken off sale (not even an empty space on the shelf for them) ?

    I'm hoping it's just a temporary measure as they've obviously had to make space for yards of chilled Christmas stuff...

    Well there's you answer. The MAP is a small burden compared to the privilege of living north of the border. I'd rather have the free education and social care provision, but suspect the rub would be my central heating bills!

    Oh no! Up to now that's the only clingfilm that I've found which is both easy to manage and does it's job. Don't know where to buy now. Any recommendations appreciated!

    Was joking a bit in my post.

    But do go try the Lidl version. It's very similar to the Aldi one I had before the dodgy roll.

    I know what it is like. I went through rolls of other brands until I found the original Aldi clingfilm.

    Aldi are selling boxes of ten ice cream bites for 99p. I've tried two flavours, marc de champagne and strawberry, both are gorgeous. A really lovely little treat. Sorry, can't find on website to link to, in spite of typing name exactly as it is on the packaging. They are like A box of chocs, but with ice cream centres. Yummm

    I bought a pack of mint, and a pack of strawberry flavoured, albeit very small (judging by the weight of the pack). I was impressed by the whole selection of frozen party goodies tbh, lots of choice and everything perfectly acceptable ;)

    Yes, they were. In fact, I was going to try the Ice Cream bites, but they only had the mint flavour. So I went for the Eclairs instead.
