    Shoes

    in The Broadscot Lounge

    Posted

    I bought all three pairs,  Grace (by the way, happy birthday honey xx) one pair is the twin of a pair that I got in Norwich in December,  but half the price. The other two are a bit of mish-mash.  Patent leather black court shoes and black leather summer wedges. Absolute bargains :default_biggrin:

    D'ya know, I've just been told that all of this recent stuff is going on without my knowledge :default_icon_e_surprised:

     Ok, yes I've just acquired two pairs of black shoes and two pairs of dark green shoes (to go with a dark green Radley bag, Grace).

    However, a lady can never have enough pairs of shoes,  matching handbags, knickers, bras, hold ups, perfume.......my goodness, the list is endless! :default_rofl:

    Chicken in white wine sauce out of a tin, add veg such as tinned sweetcorn with boiled rice, take`s as long as the rice does.

    Tell you what, that doesn't sound bad. I could go with that. Quick, nutritious,  especially if I added some sliced chicken breast xx

    OK, now I dooooo need to ask a serious question, even though I've been laughing my backside off with some of your comments.

    Can anyone remember (possibly for sale in Roys supermarket in Wroxham, but elsewhere too) a series of pouch meals made so you can either microwave them or boil them in the bag? We can remember buying a beef in red wine one, there was a lamb one, a chicken one, but we've never seen them again. Believe me, when we needed something to "tempt a jaded palate" they would have been excellent 

    Help? Advice? Xx

    Is it just me or does everyone else have to play hunt the meat with Fray Bentos pies nowadays ?

    where have all the large chunks of beef gone ?

    No, you're not imagining the "lack of meat".....this is why I also oven baked an extremely large burger.......just in case!:default_biggrin:

    Ready meals on a boat? Been reading the thread with great interest and a lot of giggles :default_biggrin:

    Trouble with us is that we don't drive, so as much as I would love to pre-prepare and freeze "stuff", by the time we got to the boat it would be ruined as we have at least one night in Norwich beforehand.

    Anyway, Mr N 's appetite has been really rubbish this week, with his tooth problem and the fact that our holiday is coming to an end, so he asked me to get "something that would tempt a jaded palate" the other day. I got a frozen pepperoni pizza and a Fray Bentos tinned steak and kidney pie (yes, I know, it's possibly the lowest of the low, but it worked) from the shop at Reedham. 

    Along with those, I got a packet of frozen veggie fingers for me,  which to be honest, were really nice. 

    Anything quick and nutritious is fantastic on a boat where A) you've got limited facilities,  B) you're on holiday and C) you really can't be a*%ed to cook :default_biggrin:

    Nice looking shoe.

    The leather upper looks like Diboudgi Box Calf, the "closing"  is simple but well done and there seems to be just the right amount of "toe spring" between the sole and the heel. A shoe like this should be comfortable and will do your feet no harm. The height of the heel is not a "bad" thing so long as the shoe is the right size to fit your foot properly.

    Excuse me, I used to make ladies' shoes, in Norwich.    :default_coat: 

    Vaughan, sweetheart...! You certainly know your stuff and they may certainly get an outing tonight xx

    Grace, my love, I've brought a pair of 4 inch black heels which you are very welcome to loan, as long as you don't have any plans for walking any distance :default_norty:

    I can't have made it much easier this time.

    The Ferry, Reedham, but as for the Decoy Tavern, neither of us have been to Fritton,  so we wouldn't have known it. 

    How far is it, walking from St Olaves, please JF?
