    No I think the problem is my end. It’s really odd :)

    Especially as I just used an apostrophe with no problem in my last post.
  • It's gone now, your post reads normally with no numbers and I found it as a problem on one post in the 5 pleasures thread which has also been corrected now. Just an unexplainable glitch I feel!

    For years I have been buying this lovely organic porridge from Sainsburys, but it's no longer available. I just had a bowl of their non-organic which is not as nice. Anyone found a decent organic porridge in any other shops?

    I think anybody who remembers the winter of 1978/79 will be preppers. Everybody was on strike! I was in hospital having a baby (born on New Years day) and we had no hot food, no hot baby milk - we warmed them under the hot taps in the sinks - no sheets so they were giving us paper ones. Every single union was out on strike. Younger people have never experienced anything quite that bad - neither have I ever since!

    I often buy Tesco organic jumbo porridge oats.

    Aldi has some in at the moment.

    I also often buy from my local health food shop.

    I remember it very clearly mardatha :)I had a six month old baby and a two year old toddler and we lived on the fourth floor of a block of flats. No heat, and no way of heating anything for long periods of time; and no fun at all when the lifts weren’t working because of power cuts.
    It certainly encouraged me to prep - and to save every penny for a house deposit lol!

    Kavanagh's Organic Porridge Oats - always in stock at our Aldi.

    If we can't get to Aldi, it's Mornflake organic oats from Morrisons - sometimes on offer.
