    £142 compared to £75 if you can wait 10 weeks.

    That isn't a bad deal.
    Cheers eek. Too late now as already applied. Why didn't I notice that? Grrr.

      Sainsbury's can't deliver various things. Several substitutions on the beer front, which may reflect the state of the nation or just be something to do with how much beer was in the order. But sadly several of the requested storage jars are unavailable

        Eek Jr 1 is taking the apprenticeship...

        So we will be charging rent (and throwing it in a savings account for when she decides to buy somewhere).

          See John Bull on Twitter: "Anyway. TLDR: When Supermarkets triage, good booze goes first. Less demand, and the big breweries throw their weight at the haulage markets to keep their generics on the shelves. So we're about 3 weeks from Boris trying to convince us all drinking Fosters is a patriotic duty." / Twitter for why the beer isn't there - it's one of the easiest things to shift to the next lorry.

          Also your patriotic duty is now to drink Fosters and celebrate your new found lack of choice.

          Or head into Leicester and find a decent beer seller.

                Shame about the horology though… would have been a pretty cool thing to do

                  we've found courses at http://www.bhi.co.uk so it's not a complete no go for that area but more as a hobby than as a career.

                      Smug mode engaged. Gubbins for my year end accounts have been sent over to my accountants, 13 days after my financial YE.



                      I could have sent them sooner, on the 10th when a final statement came in, but I didn't
