I collected my parcels from DD1 today, gutted to discover that the scrubs pattern I ordered and paid for has still not arrived, it's been a while now. I'm assuming it was yet another company jumping on the bandwagon with no intention of providing patterns.
I also collected three summer dresses that DD1 had stored for me, not that I need them, it's bitterly cold here. DD1 gave me a fishcake made by her chef husband. It was huge and will do two meals for me.
I did manage to buy some self raising flour from a little co-op that I visited. Sainsburys and Aldi haven't had any for two weeks at least.
Scrimping and saving, ranting and raving. Past retirement age.

We can get flour but no yeast! Hope your pattern arrives soon.
I got flour and yeast, but no baking powder... Hope you get your pattern soon.

Flour thankfully isn't a problem, yeast is becoming more of an issue.
If you have a local Morrisons, the supermarket is selling white and wholemeal bread flour and fresh yeast from the bakery departments. They will weigh out your requirement or sell a 16kg sack (£9). The yeast is 50g for 20p and sufficient for four 500g loaves. Plain and self-raising was available of the shelf in 1 kilo bags for 60p.
No flour but I have got an actual home delivery for £2, it's a bit late in the evening but hey, I don't have to go out and be a 'lert.
