Half a pint of cockles and half a pint of whelks from osbourne’s collected by my lovely daughter yesterday.

The cockles are fantastic this time of year, as they are fresh & not frozen, & the whelks are nice & small & not chewy at all.

Left over shepherds pie and beans.

I usually add a few drops of hot Tabasco pepper sauce, and mix it in the meat to give it a 'zing'!.

5 grilled Byfords Butcher's chipolatas in a Tiger baguette crammed with warm sauerkraut & spread with Colemans mustard.
Giving it an hr to digest before heading off for the 3 & a bit mile walk to Roots Hall, for hopefully an exciting & entertaining afternoon. See you there!.

Good job I'm not sitting too near you this afternoon mate. That all sounds a bit explosive to me.

It was a frozen fillet i purchased from Morrison's ( where else! ) couple of weeks ago. But steam cooked in the microwave with a plastic cover over it, made it taste as fresh as if it was brought today!.
