Repeated elsewhere - I need help! (This may not come as a surprise) A really fun work colleague is about to become a Vicar's Wife when his missus is ordained [prayers etc that can go ahead Distanced] - can you amazing souls nominate a good Jam cookbook as a gag gift? (Or other 'suitable' gifts for the role?)

Any book by Dave Walker.  I was going to recommend 'The revenge of the flower arrangers,'  but IM beat me to it.  Other good ones are 'My pew, the things I have seen from it,'  and 'The coffee makers rota.'  Cant quite remember the title of the last one but it's something about the coffee rota.

Teapot perhaps?

(Don't eat curry, don't eat cheese, don't eat sweet potatoes, don't eat kidney beans - in fact I'm not sure what they are but please don't tell me cos I don't like the sound of them.)
-Mar, kidney beans are an English term for Scots runner beans. What you probably need to start is to stretch meat with veg as in cottage pies and stews. I have been vegetarian for years and it takes time to introduce more flavours. Sweet potatoes would be good for the RVs diabetes,  but start small as a small amount roasted or half and half for mash.

Help please, I think I messed up my morries delivery I can still amend the order so does that mean I didn't check out properly but I don't know why. I'm afraid to redo that order incase I double up.

Any advice please it's only my third ever delivery so not quite sure what I've done wrong the other two were ok.

Needmoney, you can always amend your orders anyway, up until a set time the day before delivery is due. The time varies by supermarket.

So, when you say you can still amend it, is it still showing everything in your basket? If so, you *may* not have completed check out. BUT, I would first recommend going to the 'My Orders' section of the site to see if the order you thought you had placed is there. If so, it could be that Morrisons has put a load of your repeatedly ordered items into your basket as preparation for your next order. It's meant to be helpful, but I find it confusing as it looks like you haven't completed the previous order.

If the expected order is not in the 'My Orders' section, then it would seem you didn't complete checkout. So try that now.

If it doesn't work, please don't panic. There will be other options (though possibly not as cheap). Ocado always seem to have slots available for the immediate couple of days (they don't seem to book far in advance), so are good for an 'emergency' top up. And I have found lately that both Tesco and Asda seem to release extra slots, for random days and times early each morning (I usually look around 6.30-7am ish), so there will also be that option.

Thank you euronorris, yes it's still showing everything in my basket and I can still amend and I'm sure I remember it says you are too late to amend if it's gone through so I don't think it could have but I don't know why I thought I'd checked out properly.  The only thing I can think of is maybe I ran out of time but I also thought they warned you about that too.

I think I will just have to find a new slot and redo it. This makes me look completely dim and muddled I'm not really honestly

Can I just add need money please check your orders first. This shown in a drop down box when you click the account tab. That will show if it has gone through and you can amend from there too. It sounds to me like it has gone through and you don't want two lots Im sure

Owch! That would be like selecting a child to give away... Pinny, flower arranging & Dave Walker all happily researched (Never heard of him but wow!)

I haven’t ordered from Morrison’s before but with Tesco you can amend it until 11.59 the night before I think. You can make any changes you like before that time but you have to check out again to confirm them - could be the same?
