Under a UK-EU food deal, marmalade will be forced to ditch its classic "marmalade" label and rebrand as "citrus marmalade" to comply with Brussels rules. The change will apply across England, Wales and Scotland if ministers press ahead with plans to readopt 76 revised EU food regulations.

Oh dear, what will change next I wonder ?  Incidentally, Morrisons thick-cut Seville Orange marmalade came out on top with 75% customer rating in a Which taste test.   A 340g jar costs £1.80 which makes Morrison's own-label 75% cheaper than Tiptree, Duerr's and Frank Cooper's marmalades, which featured among the branded and own-brand preserves in the test.

Coming in a close second was Duchy's Organic Seville Orange thick cut marmalade, earning 73% rating. Equalling this score was Sainsbury's Taste the Difference Bitter Seville orange marmalade. Just more useless information.....

I've been checking mine every few days.  When I rang the surgery receptionist said it can take 3 or 4 weeks for test results to appear.

Sun's out 🌞 

Quote from: Scrumpy on March 29, 2026, 07:40:49 PMI watched a tv programme today.. Yorkshire's Poshest Hotel : Grantley Hall..
The lady that owned it was inspiring.. She said she was a council house kid and her father was miner.. admitting that she only made money after a divorce.. The renovations costs were over 100million.. The mind boggles..
The manager was more snobbish than the owner and her grownup son..
  The hotel was beautiful.. the gardens were grand.. the service top notch and the food looked delicious..

Even if I won millions I would never stay in a 'posh' hotel..
I would hate to be treated like I was better then others..
Simply because of my wealth.. Also I couldn't bear to part with such vast amounts of money in order to be waited on hand and foot.. and have my every whim taken care of..
I am just a council house kid.. Never ,ever done posh..
And never would want to..
 I have only stayed in regular hotels where the staff behave normal and mostly pleasant..
Have you stayed in a posh hotel.?
Would you spend thousands to do so.?

Even has a one off? A one day and night total indulgence?

Quote from: Scrumpy on Yesterday at 04:45:49 PMThe stamp shows a lovely picture of our late queen..
However , I don't understand why a Birthday is mentioned when the person is no longer here..
I have heard of people talking about ' heavenly birthdays'
I don't get it...
 The cost of our first class stamp is costly .. no wonder the post office is on the way out..
Well done Germany..

I suppose because it would have been her 100th birthday ?

Thankuou....the defence rests your honour.
