We’ve had an interestingly fun afternoon.

Joe and his mate Zak went to watch our local non-league team play an FA Cup qualifier, and the BBC screened it on iPlayer.
We’ve seen quite a few people we know when the crowd has been shown, including Joe and Zak who were not just in the stand but also eating pizza in the food area at the side of the stand :lol:

It’s pretty bland - rather as I imagine cooked cucumber might taste :? :lol:

I might do a chicken curry. Throw in a few veg with the meat: some onions and mushrooms, peas, but definitely not marrow, squash, courgettes or pumpkin.

I'd rather eat my toe clipping than those abominations.

Aldi have had their Christmas foodie stock in store for a couple of weeks now. :shock:

So far, I've bought the Christmas Pudding, a tin of Shortbreads with a Highland Stag on it, and a box of Cherry Liquers. :D

We're already half-way through the Cherry Liquers ..... :mrgreen:

Keep forgetting about them.
