    Enjoyed our KFC tonight too @bubbs. 😋

    That's interesting about M&S chicken thighs. 🤔

    🤞 for tomorrow's WI. 
    I have said about the thighs before, there whole chickens are no more expensive than Tesco etc but much tastier.

    I feel as fat as a pig 🤣 so not holding much hope :( not stopping tomorrow as hair and eye brows.

    Bloody app has changed i was swearing like a trooper in Morrisons 🤣🤣 cause couldn't find food search

    I don’t use a jar or packet sauce @maman.  I find light and dark soy and chilli sauce added to the liquid from the veg enough. Of course there’s garlic and other spices in too but syns are minimal between DS and I.  Our local M & S is good for veg bargains on a Sunday Bubbs and I do like their baked apple yoghurt 😀

    Much nicer day today.  Dry and not windy, definitely much warmer.

    We have travelled SW a bit and are now at Honfleur overlooking the harbour.  It’s a pretty town with lots of shops.  We went out for a walk earlier and may well go out this evening to see the Christmas lights.

    only staying here one night and moving further South tomorrow.  DH wants to get south of Caen so that’s the aim tomorrow.  Shouldn’t be too long a drive, about 1.5 hours.

    I love Honfleur @joedenise. I've stayed there often. I remember one time we skipped breakfast in our hotel and went to a cafe on the harbour instead. It's such a pretty place. 

    Shame about the STS @bubbs but has to be better than a gain. 

    I seem to remember you've had problems with Calor before. Grrr! ☹️

    Today's EE plan - 
    B- NAS grapefruit squash, baked beans (F), fried egg, bacon (P), HEB toast, HEA 1 milk 
    L- JP (F), chilli (P, S), cottage cheese (P), beetroot (S)

    Syns - weekend wine 😁

    I suppose you're stuck with them. Although there's getting to be limited choice even with mains gas at the moment. It's bad enough paying through the nose without poor customer service as well. ☹️

    Evening all, not weighed as still no batteries. Hanging in here though.
    My year group had to bubble yesterday due to covid not sure if the same next week but it should really. Just hope I keep clear, have been wearing a mask all the time for the last couple of weeks plus triple jabbed. Couple of local schools have closed early for Christmas already. Busy week coming up with BIG NEWS, hubby has FINALLY got a date for dialysis 🎉🎉 (Tuesday) just hoping he feels ok after 🤞🏻 
    Bloody raining here again 😡
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T
    Keep the Faith All

    Do you have Flogas in your area @bubbs?  They could be another option, although no good until 2023.  You have locked in at a great price.  Our local Morries has just put LPG up to 67.9p which is still cheap compared to buying from other garages (we have refillable bottles in the motorhome).

    Good luck with getting your gas sorted out.  Definitely give them a mouthful when you get hold of them.
