I believe my wife pays £14 for a free range organic chicken. Go to Aldi, they do a chicken in a roasting bag and she would probably by three for that money. Delicious and no preparation.

Ask her to get a couple of the rib-eye steaks while she’s in Aldi. 😋 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalkedUp Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 She’s very old fashioned. Buys meat from our butcher generally but will get a chicken from Sainsbury’s occasionally. She cooks proper home made food for every meal so I can’t complain about the eyewatering cost. We are a family of five and the boys just eat meat. Food shopping costs more than our mortgage 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delicious and no preparation. We got a few Aldis and they are cheaper then Walmart. But Walmart I can get underwear, a gun, beef, house paint, and new tires and a oil change all in one trip. You pay about little for the convenience of a all in one stop. They have restaurants, nail salons, and banks in them now also. They have a really good business model. 2 hours ago, WalkedUp said: I’m not sold by organic but I do think free range and animal welfare is important. It’s like our pheasants, cared for with a great life then carefully “hand shot by artisans” 🤣 Lol, I’d love to see a liberals face with hand shot on the package. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I miss our visits to Walmart, nothing you could not buy in there all in one go. They did join in with Asda here but never made a go of it and I think have been bought out by two brothers of Indian extract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lousy selection of ammunition and guns though! I tended avoid the place because of the ummm, clientele they attracted. Amazing how many absolute blubber mounds can seemingly congregate in one place. Must be gravitational forces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be gravitational forces. Agreed. I always made sure I waited until the moveing staircase was clear before I stepped on it at Tamworth. Only went there to pick up some chips for my trail cams but feared I may getting flattened by a heap of rolling blubber should the staircase stop suddenly.

Deker Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 13 hours ago, chrisjpainter said: Bring up her anti BLM record. You've lost all of the democrats right out of the blocks. Paint her as a traitor to the Black cause. With so many black Dems in Congress, you get enough of them to say it - and plenty will do it for free - and her goose is cooked with the black voters. Then paint her stance against the #metoo movement and abortion as anti women and thus she's a traitor to them too. Millions of moderates will be uneasy about the #metoo movement, yes, but a women's right to choose is still too sacred to them. And then you paint her as ignorant on Muslim issues, all the while alluding to her complete lack of any kind of experience in politics and trot out the line, 'do you really want a complete green newbie to having her finger on THE BUTTON?!' Rightly or wrongly, too many will fall for it to overturn a 7 million deficit. The assumption you've made is that all black voters support BLM, they don't watch any American sports and you'll see black athletes refusing to "take the knee" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of black voters, voted for Trump in 2020. But Owens would need so much more than that to make headway, which she'll struggle to do without BLM voters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also a difference between being sympathetic to the cause of BLM* and actually voting for a candidate who actively supports them. The Dems will, again, be in for a shock as this perception that people vote along ethnic lines needs to die, and quickly (unless you live in Tower Hamlets, Haringey, Islington...) Abe, sorry, Joe Biden's pronouncements to favour businesses along racial lines will, doubtless go down like a lead Zeppelin should he actually implement it, and will get kicked to the kerb, a la Obamacare as soon as a Republican gets back into 1600 Pennsylvania ave. One thing I will agree with you though, the Republicans are going to do their level best to stop someone who isn't part of the inner circle winning the primaries. But bring on Candace, if only to see the usual suspects absolutely loose their minds if the first female president of the US is a republican. Always assuming Biden doesn't suffer a 'heart attack' or 'stroke' between now and 2024... *By that I mean police accountability, rather than the Marxist stuff they spout...

discobob Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 There was a film like this in a way https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tTP1TcwNraMNzFg9OJMy8zJVUhJLEsFAEAIBi0&q=film+dave&rlz=1C1GCEA_enGB866GB866&oq=film+DAVE&aqs=chrome.1.0i355j46j0j46.6927j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Where somebody got in (by a rather fanciful way) that applied common sense to the whole thing!!
