    Panda and duchy [and KM], thanks for the info - I didn't know any of it - I obviously have a lot to learn when it comes to [strike]manipulating[/strike] using Tesco!

    Did the 2nd new mystery shop today - never got to the bluebell wood, tho I did go to the big garden centre nearby, and admired all the herbs. Shattered with all this walking! Have done the inputting, and most of the rest of the time, I've been s*dding about on the computer doing nothing very much, in the name of pretending to research :rotfl:

    Actually, I have listed maybe 8 or 9 things on amazon - the last before I go through my music CDs again to weed out others to sell. Pleased with that, and also made the decision not to sell my copy of the original Delia - I just can't bring myself to.

    *Might* do some paperwork tonight, but I suspect what will actually happen is that I'll watch Time Team, have my tea, and then watch a free DVD I'm sending back tomorrow, Becoming Jane. I love Jane Austen.

    This is utterly random so apologises if it's no use to you, but you mention feta cheese being the only non-cow's cheese. There's also goat's cheese and Double Gloucester (which is goats and ewe).

    Hi Gemmzie!

    I don't like goats cheese, to be honest, thanks.... and, you know of a Double Gloucester made from goat and ewe cheese? Where do you get it from? That sounds like it has real potential, ta muchly!

    Anywhere should. Legally they aren't allowed to call it Double Gloucester otherwise, I get mine from Tesco - not had a problem and I'm badly allergic, Asda one says cow's milk on one but the other one is fine - think it's the low fat version (very naughty).

    Just a thought.....
    Some time ago I was nosing around Quidco and remembered I had to "go" shopping so logged into Tescos and did an on-line shop. To my surprise I got the £5 first grocery shop payment on Quidco even though it was far from my first shop.

    Thanks guys - this is odd, as I've said I do like fiddling around on websites, I'm obviously not doing enough about my shopping. Time for another rethink.

    Hi Karma, re the cheese, have you tried halloumi? it is a mix of sheep and goats milk and is really tasty grilled and warm or just chopped in a salad. it is a very hard cheese though so not suitable for sarnies etc.

    Oh my word, I miss grilled cheese. I am *so* glad I mentioned this, its *good* that its hard, the feta is good an' all that, but I miss hard cheese too. All the non-cow's milk cheese I ever come across is £20 per kilo or something ridiculous, or pure goat, which I don't like, so I'm going to be in seventh heaven with halloumi and double gloucester both!

    Ooh, you bad people. I love cheese. Any cheese (as long as it isn't mouldy). As much of it as I can get.

    Off to the fridge right now...
