Yep

The very same

Very impressed with the quality and free delivery
Looks like the sort of thing that a pensioner, couple or otherwise, could live quite well on if needs be and finance permitted of course ... at first glance they certainly look a whole lot more interesting than the usual convenience ranges.

ps .... Meg, thanks for the link. :thumbup:

Dear Mr MOB

Well I almost got away with my very devious plan in surprising six quite discerning lady's with my candle light supper extravaganza

But I have always been straight and honest to the much beloved

She was highly amused when I told her what I had done

So much so we have had another order delivered for today's luncheon party for six hungry grand children

Kindest regards

I read a couple of years back that Tesco had bought Dobies.

Hope you enjoy the lunch Graham....

We have a Cook shop in our village of Rustington. They sell really lovely food. They even sell dishes the same size as the frozen meals so you can pop it into one of those and no one would know. Not that I have done this.

Chris

but sadly they do not very large Wild Rabbit Pies

Our lovely grandchildren well appreciated Nan's labour of love knocking up a double bunny short crust base and puff pastry top, lashings of Onion gravy and freshly soused organic veggies

They will all sleep tight tonight, make no mistake about that

That was the first thing I looked for to see if you had been telling us porkies for years and years ... but also cos I likes em. :thumbup:

Found the large venison pie though and the weekly boxes that Meg mentioned.
