halfpint of mulled cider Dec 2021 7:14pm, 7 Dec 2021 36,239 posts	Quote Pin halfpint of mulled cider My stir fry is usually really good but I was obviously a bit too heavy handed with the ginger and the chilli. At least it’s helped clear my nose

Hanneklaas Dec 2021 7:25pm, 7 Dec 2021 82,941 posts	Quote Pin Hanneklaas About to make some boerekoool for my supper. Currently on the sofa, under the cat. I have researched and found a bathroom light with shaver socket and an electric towel rail I like that aren't excruciating. I have also found tiles. Just need to work out how many I need tomortow, then I decide on Hereford, which has a B&Q, for the tiles, or Abergavenny. Both towns have a screw fix for the rail and light.

Hanneklaas Dec 2021 7:32pm, 7 Dec 2021 82,948 posts	Quote Pin Hanneklaas Fields my nearest shops are 10 miles away! I really need to research on line what is available where, as I don't want to head 10 miles into Wales, only to find that I should have headed 24 miles into England in stead!
Hanneklaas Dec 2021 7:33pm, 7 Dec 2021 82,949 posts	Quote Pin Hanneklaas Pedro, interestingly, B&Q has no good towel rail and light. Screwfix tailors to the trade, B&Q less so...
um Dec 2021 7:35pm, 7 Dec 2021 5,515 posts	Quote Pin um Both B&Q and Screwfix let you click and collect with about an hour's notice. So you can check store availability on line, and order & pay, so you just turn up and collect. (I find screwfix normally better priced and easier to deal with than B&Q - but always pre-order) (also 10 miles from anything other than the village shop)
