mhoc, I use streetlife, (I set up a ladies walking group nearly 3 years ago on it) and have to say I dont like this Nextdoor site at all! Apparently Nextdoor have bought streetlife, so it is something we will have to get used to, or stop using...I am yet to decide.
If you click on your neighbours on nextdoor, you will be able to see their full address! I have changed mine by going into settings and privacy, and now just the street shows, rather than the house number too. Also unlike streelife that showed your first name and then your initial for your surname...nextdoor shows your full name.
I also got an email from them telling me that I was a neighbourhood lead...and outlining the tasks I can do...I have declined their unpaid job, and suggested that in future they ask rather than appoint people!

I thought it would be like streetlife too and I was tasked to find other neighbours to join otherwise I will be removed a lead contact. :rotfl:

I will decline too

Storing eggs in a fridge means that any bacteria like salmonella will not multiply, but some argue that fridges ruin flavour. The British Egg Information Service recommend keeping them at a constant temperature below 20 degrees: easiest in the fridge.

On another subject...I never put supermarket tomatoes in the fridge...There never seems to be a good flavour from supermarket toms.....But leaving them on the windowsill to ripen lets the sugars enhance the flavour....Well.....I make myself believe it....Nothing as good as a garden greenhouse tomato....

So why at an egg farm where at least 3/4 million eggs a day come from why are they not refrigerated ?

‘The racks in the fridge door are the worst place to store eggs. The constant shaking thins the whites and the flavours of other foods can penetrate the shell.’


Milk should also not be kept in the door either due to temp fluctuations!

The milk won't stand up in the middle of the fridge ...and we have found even the supposedly sealed 4 pinters have been leaking a few times recently.
