to manage to buy two quails for £3.00?

[RuleBritannia]

I often sometimes invite neighbours round for a lunch or evening meal. I found this bargain at Sainsbo's so I buy a pack of two once a week and put them into the freezer. Now I have enough for five people (including me) so it's time to invite my guests. I hope they eat them.

But what about pudding and veg and wine? Won't that have to come out of the house repair money

Oh, it'll be a home made pudding (semolina or tapioca variation) and I'm never without wine and the odd juice. I always have smoked salmon for starter, too, with a sprinkling of caviar. I'm not joking. I save up look at bargain prices to do it. Sainsbo's had good packs of smoked salmon at half price over Christmas.
