Bleurgh!

Just for the record, buying a pre made block of pastry, rolling it out, putting into cases and filling with bought mincemeat is not REALLY a home made mince pie is it?

Discipline and denial....

How about a mince Pie every time an England Batsman gets a century in December.

No TRO no, I once made mincemeat and it was not a success, so I am firmly in the sod it and buy ready made.

To be fair to Aldi they did have sme rather fine spiced biscuits.

I'll be back when I have eaten my next MP.

Outrageously, Liebling has been sick for two weeks and has, as a result, failed in her wifely duty of making me some mince pies.

No-one should have to suffer such hardship.

I can add three to the total. All shop bought. One was 'cognac soaked' which was why it tasted off (I'd failed to notice this on the box) and two were Sainsbury's - nice but with too much of a gap between the filling and the lid which made it crumble.

To echo WS’s call “come on it’s bliddy Christmas”.
I’ve eaten over 25% of the mince pies recorded so far. I need some support!

There were some tiny ones in the staff coffee bar - tiddly little buggers, and I thought of eating one, claiming it as a half so we could at least get a round whole number again.

But I didn't.
