Thanks everyone 😊

Butternut squash soup was lovely after a walk round the village. We’ve been watching tv this afternoon. 

I will drive home in the morning. Expecting it to take about 5 hours. I am going to have a takeaway in the evening so I don’t have to cook. DS & gf and puppy dog will be home the next day

Have a break halfway home and a little stretch.
Enjoy your evening.

Home again after a horrendous drive. Pouring rain, big lorries, idiots undertaking and cutting me up when I am overtaking 😨 

Filled up with petrol before setting off and bought a pasty, and a cheap bottle of water total spend £36.73. 

Called off at morresons on the way home for milk and picked up a few snacky bits for New Year’s Eve. Total spend £10.17. 

Will do a year end check later this week.

Puppy dog is back home. DS & gf have gone to work so I will be walking her later. Then I will go on the great gluten-free shopping hunt. I think t3sco looks promising. Need meat, veg, stuffing, pigs in blankets, yorkshire puds & pudding. DS’s gf already has gluten free gravy.

Sorry about the traffic the bad drivers need catching and dealing with. Well done on good shop. Food shopping plan sounds good. Yum.

Driving standards are getting worse, doesn't help people see a sma car and think it's a slug. 

T have a broad range of gluten free things and you should be able to get everything.

Maybe mr t normally have more gluten free stuff but I managed to get gluten-free Yorkshire puddings £1.60 for 8 & profiteroles £1.13 x 2 boxes. I bought gluten free pork chipolatas & streaky bacon to make pigs in blankets & gluten-free pork & honey sausages which I will use with some of her gluten-free bread & sage from the garden to make stuffing. Got a butter & herb chicken plus potatoes, carrots, parsnips, sprouts & broccoli. I will cook extras to freeze for meals. 

I also got chicken fillets and wraps, peppers and courgettes, frozen dumplings & beef mince. Plus cubed lamb reduced from £3.50 to £1.92 and a huge butternut squash (weighs 1.91 kg!!) for £1. 

Meal plan
roast chicken dinner 
butternut squash soup
carrot & parsnip soup
lamb & butternut squash curry
beef mince & veg chilli
chicken stew and dumplings 
chicken fajita wraps 
sweet chilli chicken wraps 
Teriyaki chicken & micro rice

Total spend was £38.57. Down to £37.02 with club card. There should be several meals for the freezer. 

Took the dog for a run around on the field with her ball this morning and out on the common for a longer walk this afternoon. It’s nice to get some fresh air and exercise. 😊

You've a good selection and GF should have a contented belly after that feast.

The PD walks are great for blowing out winter cobwebs.
