Also look at bedding, some gorgeous floral bedding sets in all sizes reduced to £8, £9, £10 - might look better than the badly fitting clothes

No, I don't mean that!
It's not always completely accurate - the 'sniff test', even if it's I admit "probably" (my own word) a good one. So, the problem for me with Asperger's is that there is this ambiguity as to whether it is reliable or not - it is not accurate in every and all circumstances - so I therefore end up not knowing whether something is okay to eat or not, even if it smells fine, I also tend to have a conspicuous lacking in common sense (as the books on Asperger's - I ought to get my head out of books lol:rotfl: - would say) - the problem being that "common" sense sometimes isn't that common at all - the usual story brought back - judge sends jury out out on a murder case, asks them to use their "common sense" - jury foreperson returned, asked the judge what "common sense" meant - obviously the jury members could not all agree on a verdict - so, says this Asperger's person, it's not common sense after all! I look at things too much:o:rotfl:. Most people would just go 'gut instinct' and that could - any decision at all - qualify as "common sense". Everything would be fine. But, no, the Asperger's person tries to work out what different people would do - and, as some people would do one thing but others do another, then I can't reach any objective decision as to which is right or wrong and can't choose between two seemingly equally valid approaches and therefore have no view of my own. I then err on the side of caution and throw the product out anyway, even though the chances were it was probably safe. However, that's the problem - the ambiguity in the word "probably". It might not be safe and, any doubt at all - and believe me I always have doubt even if the level of doubt is very minor indeed - any doubt, safety must always come first, so I err on side of caution and out it goes.
I might try the jug test. That's more concrete. However, I wonder if it is always guaranteed, under literally all circumstances, to give the right result. However, it won't matter anyway as I'm no longer buying eggs since they just never got used up enough and they just weren't getting mainly consumed within a reasonable time at all.
Just don't buy them savvy if you don't need them....that's the answer:)To do is to be. Rousseau

Good evening everyone, hope you are all well. Sending belated birthday wishes to MKS and fourp xx
Not seen Quorn mentioned today but can confirm that it worked for me along with a meal deal although there was no signage up or 'offer' marked on the sels. Thanks to the n1lda:) Have never eaten Quorn before but tried the Southern Fried Bites for tea and was surprised at how nice they were, would not have known they were not meat:)

:eek:I'm responding to this the way I originally read [red] it, but I've now noticed an ambiguity and you might not have meant it this way:
I think the lack of signage is just that they haven't put the new offer label up rather than an indication that the new offer is now ending. They have removed the previous 2 for £2 offer signage to avoid GC possibilities but simply not put the new one up yet.
That was in relation to the Quorn. However - the ambiguity is that you could be referring to the meal deal.
I might try the Southern Fried Bites now - thanks for that:T:T. When my freezer isn't totally full:mad::rotfl::rotfl:.0 -

Wishing you all the luck in the world. And don't let this lot talk you into a house warming.....well...can you imagine:eek:
Thanks guys that means a lot, especially at this moment in time :A
Been out walking this evening after being let down earlier. It's been quite nice actually even if it is getting a bit chilly now!
I think a house warming would be fun! As long a no one minds sitting on the floor :rotfl: David. Will be guest of honour...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
Is yours to decide, this is your life.
