Haha - I've never had cold crumble! - my favorite is warmed with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
I think vodka in general is fairly vile - lol - if it was good dark jamaican rum or better yet strong cuban white rum I'd have kept it under lock and key! Even gin in this weather is lovely but vodka especially strangely flavoured vodka is not my thing in the slightest!4 YEARS 10 MONTHS DEBT FREE!!!

Hmmm, I wonder if it could be made into 'artisan' jelly sweeties for gifts? Not something I have ever tried, just wondering about the possibility now, as I'm sure I once saw a recipe somewhere for 'gin & tonic marshmallows'.
2026's challenges: 1) To rebuild our Emergency Fund to at least £5k.

Remember....if you have to put it on a credit card, extend your overdraft or take out a loan to buy whatever it is, you probably can't afford it, as that's not your money, it's somebody else's!2 -
The italics are part of the improved forum upgrade 🙄
To use asterisks to 'bulletpoint', put a space after them so it doesn't format
If however you want to italicise, then asterisk at start and end of word or sentence with no spaces will do that

Thanks for that PiP. Trouble is I'm a contrary type who likes to fling in an asterisk as & when I fancy. I haven't found any other aspects of the changes to be a problem tbf but I didn't look at them too closely x

Thanks for the blackberry vinegar recipe. I'll get some apple cider vinegar next time I'm in Aldi. I'm making my own ACV, but I need that for other stuff, and I think I should maybe buy some rather than possibly mess this up using distilled white vinegar because it's cheaper!
Love the hard bits of crumble too, yum :-)
