Having been kept at home this morning by various jobs, we popped out to do a bit of shopping this afternoon. It was raining a bit so we went to TESCO in Bulwell because it has a car park under the shop and you can walk from car to shop under cover.
I’m in such a state these days that if I get wet I’ll probably need a going over with WD-40.
We are currently on diets as the kids are cooking and trying to make us lose weight, so we decided to sneak a scone while we were out. It was a mistake.
The cutlery was dirty, the tea was OK but the scones were dry and tasteless. We did have cheese scones to be fair, so there was a lack of jam to help things along. We were trying to avoid excessive amounts of fat and sugar. Honestly.
Definitely not moreish.
Must do better TESCO.
Below, I have put the links for the first 15 parts of this series – I had to do that as I couldn’t remember if I’d covered TESCO before. I hadn’t.

I sympathise a lot with your potential need for WD40. I do know of someone who actually recommended rubbing WD40 into your joints as it had helped him a lot. It takes all sorts.
If you think it’s doing you good, that may well be the truth. 🙂
I had some very fine scones last week in Cornwall!
I did consider that, but TESCO was closer. 🙂
I hope you had a good time.
Disappointing!
It was, but I will bounce back. 🙂
I’m the right shape for bouncing.
Me, too. 😉

If you want to lose weight you could do worse than try unpleasant scones
They could rebrand them as “diet scones”.
