Was at your local ASDA on Friday. Wife wanted chips out McDonalds so we drove into the almost full carpark. I was waiting in the van and just watching the amount of people coming out with large bundles of food and getting into cars packed with kids. As this was around 4:30 ill presume that is the kids tea. Dont folk cook proper food in your town no moreScotsrich wrote: Sun Jan 15, 2023 11:38 am The OH and I are just recovering from really bad colds/flu.
So much so we’ve lived off Asda sandwiches for about 4 days but starting to feel a bit better now.
Chicken casserole in the oven.

Re: A right now thread
WFH today and I'm watching Bargain Loving Brits in the Sun. A couple are in Benidorm and have gone out for the day with a 50 Euro budget. She spies a restaurant and says. "This place looks nice". He replies, "Nah its got table cloths, it'll be too pricey for us"!
Top tip!

I found they regularly tried to over charge, that coffee can be expensive.Taipan wrote: Fri Feb 24, 2023 12:14 pm At the Land Rover dealership Having a coffee, whose name I can’t pronounce, whilst my car is being finished off in the valeting bay!

Three Belgian F16s just flew overhead at less than 1000ft - should I be worried? I've not checked the news today...
