    Soup recipies, I usually just make them up. Once you get used to it you cant go wrong, but for specific types, I always turn to Delia for soup. I have a lovely soup book of hers (particularly recommend the goulash soup ;) )

    I might get there in the end:(.

    The Old Rosie Cloudy Scrumpy Cider (10L), that I originally had on my list at £20:eek: (which I thought was a good price for the quantity:o:eek:), which went to a "Black Friday" price of £15, went to £13 on Wednesday. So, it was better to ignore Black Friday, as that was still too expensive, and buy it afterwards!
    Is it still available at that price ? Where?
    TIA

    Just had a look, and her soup book is available used on Amazon for £2.80. I know most things are on the internet, but it really is a good book. TM, get it bought, treat yourself!!!I know you like cook books.

    Here we are. This is all that’s left:o.

    I ate both ends as the crusty bits are the best.

    I’ve had it with jam on, cream cheese and Lurpak too. I would have eaten it all but I’m trying to watch my weight leading up to Christmas.

    If anyone sees any offers on Thierry Mugler Alien perfum, give me a shout please :)
    (How much :eek: 30 ml for that much, I would want it to make me 10 years younger so I could re-live my teens!!)

    I deleted a boots email, offering £10 off certain fragrances?
