A couple of days ago we actually managed to find some of this tea blend, first time for months. It had been AWOL for some time (months) before I complained in January ...

I can only assume the shortage was caused by a crop failure ?

ive taken to eating brocolli with most hot dinners recently - just 'steam' it in the microwave for 3 minutes with a teaspoon of water

Exactly this. I have been fed brocolli with nearly every meal. I'm sorry not lean on it and much prefer it raw.

I have a litre of semi skimmed milk dated April 3.

I don’t use milk, happy to give it away.

I offered it on the Recycle your stuff forum but no takers.

Anyone?

We were given milk earlier which we Generally don't use. Planning to use it in custard, bread n butter pudding or perhaps a potato thing or porridge.
