    Oh and cjj I have put out pate before now as well as an extra. :o

    There will probably be lots of whoopsied ones around at the moment, and you can freeze pate.

    I know my cheese and wines are sometimes not strictly cheese and wines as often we have a bit of meat and beer too. :rotfl:

    Yes grapes are a must cjj. ;) Chutney is a nice touch and maybe some pickled onions too. I always buy some crusty bread too, often a French stick which cut into slices and put in a basket are nice alternative to those not keen on crackers. And we have occasionally put out a bowl of apples small ones, we like apple and cheddar and some of our friends do too.

    We have also cooked and sliced a gammon before now if we have had a whoopsied one in the freezer, I know not in keeping with cheese and wine but it always goes down well.

    When shall I put the date for in my diary. :whistle:

    Aww thanks TS. It's Friday & you would be more than welcome :T. If only .............xx

    Turkey crowns and turkeys in S and A reduced further.

    I now have "a few" in the freezer :D.

    In S £4 for a medium crown (2.2-2.9kg IIRC), £3.75 for small (I got a 2kg one ... and a couple of larger ones:)).

    In Little A I paid £5.78 for a 3kg one too - loads left, oh for more freezer space.

    It appears we may be having turkey again soon :cool:.

    Thrilled that so many are going well out of whoopsies over Christmas.

    Something has just happened that's made my day:T

    I've opened up one of my Bumper 10p veg packs containing swede( turnip for some:rotfl:), onion and carrots ....and guess what........






    There's a parsnip hiding at the bottom:T:T:T:rotfl:
