I've got 23 boxes of Batchelors Mushy Peas ordered. That ought to be enough to get me through the winter.

Batchelors or probably the best IMHO...you'll definitely not be short of gas during the winter

Pity we can't bottle it and sell it.

Came across these in the local Iceland shop just before the holidays and found them to be very nice.

He doesn't do overseas mail order.

swamprat69er · 01-10-14, 01:40 PM

The closest one is 3175 miles from me. I kinda think the food will be very cold by the time it gets here.

Jimbuna · 01-10-14, 01:41 PM

Well it's not called Iceland for nothing

We are about to get a break from the extreme cold and continous snow. Temps above freezing and some rain to take the snow down.

Yep. I like it. We're gonna hit 7°C Sunday with rain. Bring it on.

Lionclaw · 01-11-14, 09:55 AM

-10C, snowfall and wind biting in my face. That's more like it!

Wolferz · 01-11-14, 10:03 AM

Snow and Cold are four letter words.

Me mum would give ya the stink eye if you uttered them.

Lionclaw · 01-11-14, 10:10 AM

What weather is it outside?

Uhm... It's raining water in frozen form and someone turned the thermometer upside down.

Jimbuna · 01-11-14, 10:29 AM

Not too bad here 6C, cloudy but no wind.

swamprat69er · 01-11-14, 10:58 AM

It is forecast to hit 7C here today, but I don't think it will get much over 5C. I would rather see snow than this rain. the laneway is mush and I can't go anywhere. IF I really had to get out, then i would drive on it, but I don't need to and I would prefer to have it fairly smooth for the next snowfall. Makes it much easier to work with if it is smooth rather than rutty.
Got my new LED spotlights on Friday and I will install them today.
