This is getting fun isnt it as the jets scream above us ? I really have shopped like a Doomsday prepper this week , the poor little Amazon guy has a double hernia and a nervous twitch . Popped out this morning to the food pantry , usual amazing mixture of the weird and the odd , lots of posh bread sliced bagged and popped in the freezer, plus they had free bags of potato wedges so more freezer fodder , got more of the catering cartons of Bechamel sauce nobody seems to want , i made cauliflower cheese with it last week and it was gorgeous , himself was horrified. I think we are all going to have to be more innovative with our cooking as the world goes to hell in a hand basket . Popped into iceland to see what they are giving away , got a few bits from the half price freezers , god awful orange breaded chicken things that the others in the household love , a pack of fresh meat burgers for under a fiver !!! and kebab meat because it stops himself whining that he wants to go out for a takeaway ..URGH . I went a way bit feral in Lidl , just a couple of extra everything we actually use on a weekly basis and a giant pork joint because they didnt have any of the smaller size , i was very good about the 8p veg just 2 giant swedes , 2 lots of parsnips and a big bag of carrots . I had 15 pounds left out of the monthly budget so i popped in the chicken factory and the freezer is now full . Himself was horrified when it was all unloaded , but then i saw a you tube video about them running out of milk containers in south korea , so ive emptied my bank account on milk , the amazon guy is going to love me.
Just in case im going to do a car boot at the weekend , because the one thing ive run down to afford my grocery blitz was pet food and if my cat doesnt have what she wants i will die and be eaten .
Now this may all sound rather ridiculous , but in the event of things going a wee bit tits up , we are buggered , theres no shop other than a tiny coop 5 miles away and it covers a big area , you cant walk their safely its an A road with no paths and great big land drains either side. Its 15 miles to a supermarket and you dont know what will be there when you get there ? or if the fuel will be available . Im sure the government has bright ideas but im sure they wont do sod all for rural areas .
Yep im going slightly mad !!!!
