    I'm sure our conversation isn't of interest to those who get their syns from chocolate and cakes. 🤣

    DH had a bottle of Mcguigan red as a gift. If you type in red wine 12.5 %, there are various wines at 9 syns for 250mls.

    Even my DH who isn't really a big beer drinker likes Belgian beers. 😊

    Well done for trying SP @bubbs. It's what your consultant suggested so has to be worth giving it a go. Shame about the photos as they always look delicious. 😋

    why are some people so thick?🤣

    If a recipes is for 4 and you want to cook for 2 what do you do? Halve it or freeze half, on the SW website a question why is the recipes always for 4 when i only want it for 1 or 2? 

    Some people astound me, i want if for 6 why does it not give it for 6? 🤣🤣🤣

    Or if you're greedy like me, you cook a recipe for 4 for dinner and 2 of us eat it and, if lucky, there's enough left for me for lunch. 🤣
