In 9 months here I have found Stilton once.
Sell by date was 19th December. 220g wedges.
By freezing I now have 3 months supply.
Thawing must be done in the fridge for 24 hours.
Needs must.
Cheddar also freezes well again Vintage is hard to find here and when I do itâs only way.
Dont worry. Post Brexit when the supermarkets run out of food, youâll learn
When you get the photo of the little 'un chillaxing in his window seat as his flight to you pushes back from the standâŚ
Phil, They dont appear to understand that as an ex pat British food is at a premium price.
We pay it because we want some of the memories of home but and its a big but some delacacies from the UK are not available we make do with what our country of residence has. What are the population of the United Kingdom going to do when they have no HP sauce as its embargoed and made in the Netherlands?
rejoice-donât like HP sauce
Youâre not an A1 sauce person are you?
OhâŚyou noticed
Write post read edit.
My normal state of affairs.
i have a store in town that does âforeign stuffâ but it really is hit and miss as to what they have in. I try and keep 2-3 months stock of basics, back in the sandpit, Branston wasnât available for 6 months once upon a time.
To be fair to Lidl the Stilton was cheap compared even to say Tesco in UK and was a bloody good one. But, once it s gone doubt I will see anymore.
Equally, after Brexit, Customs / Duty Free rules will change. No foodstuffs will be permitted to be carried. Will end up having to make our own British Sausages ffs.
You have enough trees for the sawdust to put in them
As you may know Grandson arrived today.

The eldest daughter has remembered.
There is breakfast for papa (although served after midday - beat that McDs)
Is that when you got up or she got up
To be fair, I think she was up and about before 11:30am.
CB Saint just saved ÂŁ500 on his home insurance and now he feels epic
Just seen weather forecast for tomorrow.
Same as all week. Freezing Fog lifting from 11:30am.
So we can only leave home for an outdoor day with Grandson.
About 12 Noon.
Which is of course the same time the Egg Chasing will finish.
Phew
I like frangipani, bougainvillea and there are these tiny little pink and yellow ones I like. All grow in tropical climes whilst I live in cold UK.100% I was born in the wrong climate.
So was I Which is why I now live in the Philippines
