Thank you VT....lovely to see you here:A
Yes we have the funeral next week.
It’s on his birthday:o
The general concensus is that it’s going to be 2 sad days so we might as well combine them. The other angle is that it HAS to be a day of celebration, so we are going for it.
How is mr ted these days VT?:DTo do is to be. Rousseau

Thanks savvy.
I mixed my soup shop as got excited to see French Onion my favourite and don't see it very often. :rotfl:
A lovely French Onion Soup recipe would be welcome from the cooks please?
Off to get a glass of something nice.
Oh it’s so easy to make curly
Slice your onions finely and sweat in butter. Sprinkle a little of sugar over the onions and add garlic. Add a good beef stock and a glass of wine. Some people add cornflour to thicken but I don’t. Slice French bread on top and melt cheese on top to serve:)
Best served next day:)To do is to be. Rousseau

It’s the stock that will make it great....did you add sugar....it sort of caramelises it:)

I bought 4 curly wurlys & a Cadbury chomp. Labels all indicated they were in the 5 for £1 deal. Was I wrong please?0 -

I thought they all were in the mbuy. Has the mbuy ended on Curly Wurly (but still showing online)? The Chomp (BC 7 622210 723512) is on the mbuy - or was late this afternoon - as I bought it with the Black Jacks. The only "wrong" on your shop was that the chocolates are best vs S or M.
If the mbuy hasn't come off, you are very right as you should have a £2 GC:D. (Difficulty may be if the offer really has ended today or is ending soon, slowly reaching different stores over the next 24 hours, that the mbuy labelling may be pulled off and not be on the shelving when you next visit for the GC - unless they just take your word, how can you show that the mbuy was on display when you bought the items?)0
