You know how you step out side, in your inside warm house clothes & slippers, to put the recycling out, notice the climbing rose is still dangling in your face, you fetch the secateurs just to trim it.... and end up knee deep in rose cuttings, clematis dead wood & frost bite :o

and it is dark

:rotfl: happens to me all the time, but I usually someone will have locked the door before I go back in. hope your warmed up now xx

I did myself a screenshot of the offer at the time. First time something automatically got added without having to chase. I am currently still chasing for the train journey via their email

Oh I did get it in at the right time, so have you had those points then. Many thanks for that, will keep a beady on nectar to make sure they get added. Good tip re the screenshot,will do that in future so they cant wriggle out if it

Never tried celariac.

Do you like celery? The bit at the bottom? Thats what celeriac is.

Peel and chop some celeriac and about half as much potato, boil in slightly salted water until cooked. Drain and mash with butter salt and black pepper.
I can eat it on its own.

Slightly different plants, but from the same family.
Oh, and you forgot to mention they taste slightly of aniseed.

Celeriac and carrot soup is really nice and is not as strong as just celeriac xx

Don't be like Dave and add aniseed balls unless you want the aniseed taste xx

Right, off to the pub. Just fancy some celeriac soup now, but might just have to have a pernod instead....taste the same anyway

Not really :rotfl::rotfl: thats probably why I have never tried celeriac.

I remember Dead Ringers had a sketch where a certain Rees-Mogg claimed he's got squiffy from drinking too much Bollinger and had spilled celeriac consommee all down his cummerbund.
