Do Sunday trading laws still work? There are more than a hundred people waiting to get into @sainsburys Forest Hill this morning which doesn’t open till 12 noon. I’d say 50 of them have been here for more than 15 minutes. 6 hours is not just a big enough window!!

How to make the perfect pastel de nata – recipe >> the content I’ve been waiting for. Is it worth making your own? I think I need to find out theguardian.com/food/2023/mar/…

I’m going to go out on a limb @DunelmUK, and suggest that most mums will not be delighted with a tablecloth for Mother’s Day. I think most mums want an end to the gender pay gap, equitable access to affordable childcare, and a BREAK. I’m not so sure they want table linen.

Great to see so much happening

I hope you’re all off to buy cheese from @AgasLittleDeli, meats (and wine) from @TheButcheryLtd, last minute gifts from @bunkastore and other #se23 delights today #ForestHill?

I’ve just been making a recipe for chocolate melting moments biscuits that I first wrote down aged about 6 forty five years ago. Replaced the marg with butter and added some cocoa nibs and still a winner!

On a trip to Dorset and wondering about the sustainability of our crab fishing (a favourite food). Seems I may need to make a more sustainable choice…. mcsuk.org/goodfishguide/…

Maybe a question for @CatfordCookClub @CatfordCanteen or anyone else who knows #se6!

Favourite cafe’s in #Catford #se26 Where am I missing? Where should I go? @TeamCatford @CookingCatford

I think most of these might be on Honor Oak Road #se23

Oh no. Bad news for #se23. We’ll be very sad to lose you @Shannonsgc

Looks good!

Mmmn. Made this, without an icecream machine (Mr FF commented on the size of the ice crystals 🤪). Really good! Used coffee liqueur as no brandy >> How to make the perfect chocolate sorbet – recipe theguardian.com/food/2022/jun/…

@XantheClay The ones in jars are generally much much much nicer although lots more expensive! As a main meal protein still good value if you compare to cost of meat
