    Thanks - I drink coffe in the afternoons,  good bean to cup, never instant @Sun_Addict .  I used to be ok with PG but went off it a few years back @Seasidegal58

    I have added some yorkshire gold to the MrT order (on offer at £2.50 so worth a try) and some plain yoghurt at 45p for the concrete.

    Today I made one of the egg wraps for the first time in ages, forgot how much I like them. Had it with shredded left over beef with some horseradish mayo.  Will put some red lentils in the nutri bullet to soak shortly so I can have another try at the red lentil wraps tomorrow.  I suspect it'll be easier to lose a stone than find suits that fit, that I like and that are machine washable.

    Used to make the mortgage free in three ones, but couldn't find the link so working with frugal queens version instead.

    I can answer the child to adult passport question as I did my son's last month. If you have the photo taken in an approved store which emails you the code for your pre approved photo (£10 but worth it) there is nothing else needed except filling in the online form, adding your photo code and paying for it.

    Re the washable work suits - I remember buying some from M&S a few years ago. No joy there?

    Tea bags - personally I ideally like T3tley, but MrT's own brand (NOT the value ones, they're full of dust and rubbish and taste like it too) are a good substitute for when T3tleys aren't on offer. Also not a fan of PGT's, and I can't cope with typh00 any more since I bought a huge catering bag of them a few years ago and had nothing else for a year!

    Lovely to see you posting @EssexHebridean
    The Yorkshire gold are ok, but I will try @T3tley as it has been a while
    @Seasidegal58 my default choice, but nothing longline jacket/machine washable/straight leg atm

    I made cheese scones earlier (with some of the 45p value yoghurt) which are rather nice.  I also made chestnut brownies.  We went to a D0bbys garden centre and were frankly unimpressed.  I wanted creeping alpines and some late summer perennial colour but I am far too mean/realistic to pay those prices.

    Do you want some erigeron? I can probably salvage some seedlings when i'm weeding and put them in the post in a plastic bag with damp kitchen roll.
