    Sorry if I woke you:), I was about at 2, blooming foxes yelping somewhere nearby, I thinks there's a family as neighbour has seen some cubs around
    Unusually, a neighbour's car alarm went off at 3, 3.05, 3.10... so I got up :)

    Sunny here too. I'm "packing" (the process is: think about doing it, go and stare at something, get overwhelmed, walk away for now).
  • I want my pot noodle!:rotfl: Supposed to be delivered here before 1.30.

    I got one called Mr Lees Noodles Zen Garden Vegetables. I hope it tastes nice.:D

    The pot noodle was horrible, it didn't have any flavour at all! I will not be buying that again!:eek:

    You'll get there. :):)

    Oh I accidentally mentioned you in the topic about Brexit Prep when waffling about Morr's actually. Said post is here if inclined.

    I did try a different 'known' brand once but did not like at all. To be honest the really cheap ones can be a bit like that. Maybe if there is a next time the 'more well known' green coloured chicken/mush one perhaps.

    Related to noodles(kind of) those 'shot mug' packs (usually 4x£1 if you look) their chicken one is nice but I could not see it lately, then I realised they have changed the colour from a cyan (to my eyes at least) gray colour pack for this flavour! :rotfl: , did not get any as I wondered if they "improved" the content. I will have some next time to see maybe.

    Once I've run the pantry down a bit in prep for shop next week ( probably likely the end of next week too (!), going to be a long few days between now+then :rotfl: ) at least there's food+elec+gas+feral colony foods so I don't have to worry about that stuff, when said pennies might appear. :D

    It was quite expensive as well, £2.50!

    I did used to like the really cheap basics noodles you could get from Sainsbury's, I think it was. I might look for that next time. I think they were only about 25 pence.

    :shocked: Must be a misunderstanding ? :) :shocked:

    The 'regular' noodly pots are 60p here at BM , about 80p give/take a little elsewhere and the larger "king" type ones vary but can be got for £1 - £1.20 usually.

    Was that just for a "single pot" ? I'm shocked! :)

    Good afternoon everyone,
    Shame about your pot noodle Wednesday especially as it was so expensive!:eek:
    Must of been the night for nocturnal disturbances, I was woken by cats fighting nearby:mad: just after two and it took me ages to get back over. I didn't get up until after 9am and tbh could have slept on if I wasn't getting groceries delivered. Said groceries have arrived and been put away, tea bag stash has been restored:). It's cool and grey here but supposed to stay dry so I might get a bit done outdoors later. Lunch is going to be a cheese & tom sandwich with a peach and a fig. For dinner tonight I'm swithering between veggie pasta or a smoked sausage, veg & bean hash type affair. I'll decide later on.

    Yes, it was just the size of a normal pot noodle. I thought it was going to be a high quality one and a lot bigger as it was from Ocado. Total rip-off. I might write a scathing review lol.

    YS "Baby" spuds boiled, mayo stirred in & now maturing ready for joining my Chicken + salad dinner

    Picked the outdoor toms and the blighty plants now binned

    Thinking back to nocturnal goings on last night, it was a cold clear moonlit night last night, maybe that was stirring the animals up?

    Off topic, I have a nagging thought about a song with "cold clear moonlit night" in it, dredging memory I think it was in Scottish dialect, "monlicht nicht" Trigger anyone's memory?

    I kind of feel I've "earnt" a takeaway .... although I'm far far far far from seeing the end of things that need to be sorted/done/packed/etc....

    .... trouble is, I CBA to go and get it.

    Had eggs/toast & toast/beans/cheese today.... and the rest of the choccies ... and a kitkat.

    If a takeaway appeared by magic I'd eat it though, but they don't.
