Checked the local Big B&M and no sign of these ever being sold there. The corned beef shelf had no gaps and no 50p stickers.

Building a 'Skin' account, I'm going to play Switch&Skim with high-street banks.... Its about the only legal way to get a decent payout without locking a massive chunk of cash away for years.

was the same in the two stores in our local town,i sometimes wounder if they put it on there website to get people in store to end up spending on other things
Remember the rule of the 7 P's, proper planning and prepperation prevents piss poor performance...

We should exact a price on them by boycotting the store. But B&M is the nearest thing some of us has for a hobby

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 9
I had a close call driving this evening - nearly hit two children who walked out in front of me without looking, wearing almost entirely black. Despite both parties being perfectly fine (I guess the kids were a bit shaken), I still feel sick as even nearly hitting a kid is my worst nightmare.
So I've dug out my fluorescent armbands that have flashy red lights in them so I can wear them on my coat (which is black) if I have to walk out in the dark. Tonight has reminded me that I need to be much more visible when I'm a pedestrian at night. I'll look out one of my head torches that has a red light option to carry in my backpack in case I need to attach it to my bag so I would be visible from the back.

Little man has his grey coat.... It's fully reflective but not overly visible in the fog
This is my usual work get up class three top and class 1 trousers
I've also got a black low Vis (think traffic warden black with reflective bands)
And big miss has a decent set of bike lights ... We are at the fashion conscious stage so high Vis would just get a eyes roll
If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong 
Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

I LOVE Little Man's coat! That's the kind of coat I'd get if I was ever a cyclist again.Yorkshire Andy wrote: ↑Thu Nov 17, 2022 8:37 pm

Inventoried the freezers. Liberated the space of one whole freezer.
Discovered a need to spend a mint on meat replenishment.
Cooked some year old frozen chicken breast, for lunch and dinner for the next three days
I won't inflict it on the tasting panel, lest it kills them.
Jeera Chicken. Nom Nom Nom.
Threw out some 15 month old lamb and designated a lot of stuff as 'eat me soon'
