    Not quite sure on the craic with this ... but taking the title as a clue ... I'm in work 18 days this month... Ill be doing 18 "brought from home" lunches. :) Unless it's only for folks who usually buy lunch...

    Salads are back on the menu now so today I have a salad (some iceberg, some Aldi Bistro mixed leaves) red and green pepper, a tomato, spring onion & cucumber, with home made curried egg mayo :)

    Can I join please? I'll aim for 17 days in may.


    I am usually quite good at bringing lunch to work , but this should keep me on the straight and narrow!

    Today's lunch is chicken & rice leftovers.
    Tomorrow will be lunch on work as we are out at a meeting all day.

    Welcome to the club,

    I have added you both to the list on the first page.

    Good luck xx

    Can I join in too? There are 23 working days this month for me so I'll go for 19 - allowing me 4 days of food in the canteen MAX! Canteen food here is mostly pretty mediocre but sometimes it is just nice to have someone else cook - especially on Fridays when they seem to do comfort food!

    Yesterday was 1/19 with a cheese & chutney sandwich, pk of mini cheddars, 2 clementines and a last remaining small amount of dried pineapple and mango.

    Need to restock my work drawer with an emergency food stash for when I forget lunch! Currently (apart from lunch stuff for today and tomorrow) it contains 2 sachets of instant porridge which is fine if forgot breakfast but not so good for lunch...
