I used to get beans from Lidl but they stopped stocking them so I switched to some others from Amazon. I do use that brand Cappuccino pods in the Dolce Gusto machine on #1 son's boat when fishing.

Maybe I should have started a Lidl & Aldi thread

I did look at their YumYums but the label showed over 400 calories so I gave them a miss.

I remember .. way back... that most bought French Letters..

Done a bit in the garden this morning.. Not at all cold.. Some people headed for the park didn't wear a coat..

Waiting in for Amazon. Bit of an excuse really I messed up yesterday and didn't mark both items as Sunday delivery. The one that arrived while I was out yesterday and declared "handed to resident" was dumped in the front garden so I could go out but it looks a miserable day.

Sorry Dextrous.. My remark was in response to
' I never thought I would buy anything French'

Yes, Was down in Perth and went to the pool after 2 weeks off for the holidays. Went to Tesco afterwards then out with Dageus, went to have a coffee and realised I forgot the milk, headed over to the Co-op, AND..... My whole way of life changed.
