    Another dull & grey start, maybe drizzle later so they say.

    I hope you complained about the mackerel Farway, I hate it when very short dated stuff isn't highlighted as it should be!
    I thought about it, but when I went on line & read the customer reviews of same item it seems short dated is the poor normal. 
    I assume in store folk pick the long dated, so the short dated are left for the shopping pickers to grab as they go by
    As it happens no harm done, but I'll check next time for sure
    I wonder if there is some problem with this in store? They have only recently re appeared & available on line, maybe some sort of stock control difficulties

    Lunch, scrambled eggs on toast, well it was until i saw Brambling's sardines and now I'm torn. :/
    Dinner, Defrosting LO HM thick veg soup

    Good morning everyone, 
    Another gloomy, dark day here.
    I ended up bumping my Tesco order until tomorrow as we are off to my sister's tonight to celebrate my nephew's birthday and there's enough milk etc. to cover us until tomorrow evening. 
    Soup from the freezer for lunch and the birthday "boy" has requested burgers and wings for dinner.

    We are shrouded in fog here today making everything seem grey and depressing but at least it still feels quite mild out there.

    Last of the ham & cheese croquetas with salad for my lunch.

    Pan fried salmon tonight with brussel sprouts and green beans.
