    Massive thanks to Scamps for the gooey pizza info :beer::beer::beer:

    I bought one deal at my local Metro - as they only had one large pizza in stock, and bought another 5 in a normal Ts. Topped up to 10 items with small items of veg and T own brand products, which don't affect the BG.

    We are having a bbq on Sunday, so will use the puddings as dessert - can anyone think of a way to make them look home made? :rotfl::rotfl: If not, I might just arrange them on a serving plate with some sifted icing sugar and squiggly patterned jus ;)

    For those who gave me advice last night - Waspgate is ongoing. B&Q didn't have the recommended product,or anything similar, so after a bit of googling, the Nippon one gets similar reviews on Amazon, so I have bought that from Robert Dyas plus a powder that has a nozzle. However, even by 7am this morning there was lots of waspy activity going in and out of the roof, so we are going to wait until this evening to tackle it. Fingers crossed it works, we have visitors all weekend, so I could do without losing another night's sleep tonight :o:o_pale__pale_


    Don't know what the waspgate post was but the best treatment for a wasps nest is ANT POWDER - get the one with the holes in the top - you puff it into and around the hole of the nest ( hopefully accessible) at about 8pm when the wasps have gone to bed ;)
    . They get it on their feet and take it on into the nest. I have never had to repeat the exercise on the same nest :)

    You need at least 10 different items for it to match (can be own include own brand food items as don't have to compare).

    Thats what I thought - but 2 different staff (including CS people) insisted I had to have 10 different BRANDED items and that any tesco brands would not work as part of the 10. But what do they know - they get a lot of stuff wrong.

    It's the only time Morries comes in useful to me for comparisons as not one close enough to take advantage of any instore offers.

    Shame you all can't take advantage across the water. :(

    Think you all dipped out on the last meal deal glitch as that was Morries comparison too. :o

    Here's my Quorn shop from yesterday. Never tasted the stuff before but it's surprisingly okay. It has the consistency of chicken but slightly bland so I might have to make casseroles with it.
