It's lunch time. Tomato and basil soup with bread and butter will go down well might have s packet if cheese and onion as well.

[Mervyn and Trish]

Does anyone else have snow? We have feet of it.

Well inches.

Well millimetres.....

[Bensham33]

Nope not even a frost here in South London but looking at the sky it's coming.

[Manoverboard]

Moby, honestly?
A lot of 'old fashion comfort grub' is said to be bad for you, but it tastes wonderful.
Put it this way, a little of what you like is not going to harm you if mixed with a good diet.
By the way, are you a vegan? Jusy asking.
Take care.

Good grief no but we do have half a dozen options for when vege chums come to stay

You won't need those for a while then......

Oh but we do ... else we could forget how to make them

No, but the beeb had a yellow warnings for snow and ice for several areas including the South East from midnight last night to 1800 this evening, not that you would think so looking at their web site.

Clear blue skies at the moment.

No snow on the ground here but there has been some frost. The Ochil Hills have a good covering of snow they usually give us shelter from the worst weather. I hate snow and ice.
This time last year we were doing a count down for our next cruise which was at the end of January. Like many others this winter shall be the first time for over twenty years that we won't be away on holiday

[Manoverboard]

Fish Fingers are not on our usual shopping list but we once bought some ' for a friend ', very nice they were too. Youngs Gastro products when on offer are however deffo on the list

For PTE they do have a cod 'n' parsley option

I think the Beeb will just be reporting the Met Office warnings, whereas the forecast is probably from their in house forecast system, so they could well differ.
Dont like supporting the Beeb but fair's fair after all.

[Stephen]

Snow is on its way.

[towny44]

It's already here, we have a two inch covering this morning, it looks pretty but I'm glad we don't have to go out.

[Ray B]

Towney, I was going to say you can keep it, but the temp here this morning has fallen 2 deg and is getting a bit gloomy, maybe Stephen is correct.

[Mervyn and Trish]

Well done Sainsbubs. Our road is a side street, in fact a close, up hill, and is snow covered and not cleared or gritted. So I didn't expect the delivery to arrive today. But it did! Bless the driver. He parked at the bottom and walked up the hill dragging our boxes on a trolley. And arrived early.

Two things ...

1. We had 8 substitutes, due to the lorry problems perhaps ?

2. Do hope that you tipped the driver and said " Happy New Year " etc

3. This should surely be posted in the new and improved ' Food 'n' drink ' Topic

4. We have one lady driver out of Weymouth, do you have any ?

[Stephen]

So did anyone have one of Sainsbury’s or Aldi’s rotten turkeys.

[Happydays]

Still no snow but very frosty with ice the pavements etc are like an ice rink. Had to walk very carefully (slow) this morning when taking our dog out don't think she was too keen either! Have I mentioned how much I hate it ?

[Manoverboard]

We had a Turkey mini crown, enough for three it said. It was really nice and Sainsbug's special Christmas gravy granuals surprisingly made it taste just like Turkey ought to ... as opposed to it being dry and bland like wot it usually is. Could have got a big specialised black one in the village but twas far too big for two.

Really enjoyed it so we are doing a similar raosty theme, albeit with beef, on Friday.

[Bensham33]

No snow here but it's very cold outside. Inside it's roasty toasty. I've turned the heating up.

1. Three but they were things that often seem out of stock.

2. Don't be silly. Do you think I'm made of money?

3. Fair point.

4. Yes, at least one.

We have had a lady Sainsbug driver, but only once.

[Mervyn and Trish]

P.s. You can't count Moby. That was four things.

Steady Bensham, you may give some on here ideas to do the same.

Up here in the frozen North our central heating only has a short down time, from about mid June to early August. The rest of the time it gets turned on when needed, and as we get older that becomes more frequent.

[Stephen]

Too cold for snow here. And even worse tomorrow with a real feel of -6 first thing and not getting allot higher the rest of the day. Might have to use a second log in the burner.

[Manoverboard]

Why did it take 57 minutes to realise that ?
