    Ten pounds a week for food?

    I saw in the media that It's possible to feed oneself for a week for just £10. So I though OK, let's have a try. The rule is - you can only use the real basic stuff from your own cupboards e.g. cooking oil, butter, salt, vinegar and so on. OK so here's my provision (and indeed provisional)...

    Best local pub roast dinner.

    I went to The Hawk in Battlesbridge yesterday and have to admit that they have really upped their game. If I had one quibble it would be that I think three roast potatoes is a bit tight. 8/10 Anyone else got a top tip?

  5. The average SUFC Fan IQ?

    I don't profess to be the brain of Britain, but a lot of the comments with regard to student loans are obviously from people who have never been anywhere near a uni or have any children at the desired intelligence level either. Pure Sun reading diatribe. Football supporters or come to that...
  6. To all you chefs... roast dinner!

    So we've got the inlaws coming for Sunday Lunch. Mrs Pubey is on desserts duty and I said that I'll take on a full Roast Beef dinner. I've made different roasts before, and so am fairly happy around the kitchen. However I want to get this one spot on, and so call on you culinary SZers to give...

    Question If it came to an end, could we really cope?

    I have just finished reading The Day of the Triffids for the umptenth time and it got me wondering. If civilisation as we know it came to an end how would those left survive and due to the technical world we have been brought up in, would that leave us even more worse off. Let me explain. That...

    The Good Old Days

    Grandad was reminiscing about the good old days... "When I were a lad, me mother would send me down to t'corner shop wi' a shilling, and I'd come back wi' five pounds o' potatoes, two loaves o' bread, three pints o' milk, a pound o' cheese, a packet o' tea, an' 'alf a dozen eggs. Yer can't do...

  10. Breaking News Rev's Daily Diary

    From the Blues Insider e-mail REVELLING IN IT Welcome to this weeks column of ‘Revelling In It’. Whilst I could talk about Saturday’s performance in detail again, sometimes words aren’t enough and it becomes time to let our feet do the talking, of which we are confident of doing so against...

    The Good Housekeeping Way #1 Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips. The Real Women's Way Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God's sake. You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway. The Good...

    Ow my god.......Just read through a thread on here I am sitting here with my wife trying to explain the Thread "Boo Boys" She does not get it at all and frankly neither do I. I tried to explain to her that Football is an emotive subject and that not only rival supporters fall out but also...
  13. Bottles

    Radio 5 reports a new type of bottle made from corn or potatoes. The sugar is extracted and polymerised. It degrades by being eaten by bacteria when it's been warm for a few hours in the right conditions. Currently being used by Waitrose. Apparently it's as good as any other plastic...

    The Club shop merchandise

    Whilst coming to work this morning I found solace in my Southend United golf brolley, purchased from the official shop I hasten to add. The weather being very blustery and driving rain would cause me no problems I thought to myself, knowing the club had sourced out the best merchandise it could...
