[TangledUpInGin]

As I know I'm not being unreasonable to a) have my fire lit; b) have a huge glass of red wine; and c) an entire packet of grilled halloumi for my tea.....

Fuck I just came back from the supermarket and now I want halloumi.

YABVU for not sharing.

Oooh, knit, you might be onto something there... I'm currently festering in a hallumi paralysis watching nonsense on the tv....

OP,

The gin miniatures box was a sort of promotional launch deal from a new local craft/artisan bloke.

In the interests of full disclosure, a couple of the bottles are a little depleted , as I had to double-check they were ok, you understand.

Possums: if its not too late to go out M&S do an amazing mushroom pasta thingy with chilli - it's absolutely divine 😍 Failing that, anything with cheese works in my book 👍🏼

Heats, don't worry it was horrible, you'd have hated it.....#blatently fibbing

Cavender,

God, you were caught up in Harvey? Are you/ loved ones ok?

Stevie: I went on a school shoe shopping spree the other week and came back san school shoes but a full tummy after Wagamama and a bottle of lime and basil gin......success in my book

I was wondering what I should do tomorrow night when DH is out. Whole pack of halloumi it is.

OP,

Ha!

Well, am sure you could appease any cross teachers with a generous bottle of lime and basil gin...correct school shoes would then mysteriously drop down the list of priorities.

We'll look out for you and your DC/ DCs featuring in sad face local news pics.

Twinkle, it's the way forward 👌🏼

@TwinkleTwinkleLittleEtoile that sounds almost sexual (well to me anyway, me affection for halloumi is...confusing )

I might buy some butter beans next week millhouses, really fancy some now. just need to find some extra children to force fed them too

Asda were out of halloumi last week so crossing my fingers they have restocked

Stevie, I'd love to do a sad face "I know it's not the right uniform, but I've spent all my money on gin and hallumi and I just can't afford it now" piece in the papers with the clasped hands and mournful expression.....another one added to my bucket list 🤣

LittleB, butter beans are a whole heap of wrong (not envy)

That's very kind of you Tangled but I'll just add them to the list for our next set of visitors.

Stevie that's kind of you to ask. We're all safe thank you and counting our blessings that our home wasn't flooded like so many others.

OP,

Get thee on the phone to your local paper's newsdesk right this minute!

Or The Fail Online, for bonus points from us...and deliciously judgemental, Disgusted, From Tunbridge Wells-type comments to snigger over tomorrow.

Cavender,

Phew. Glad to hear. What an ordeal it must've been. Thoughts with any MNers about to be/ already affected by Irma, too.
