Precisely, and I can't even have the Crunchies because of my diet, but it keeps him sweet.

Re: What have you just bought?
As My Xbox One died I bought a new console
1TB Xbox One S (Gears of War 4)
It came with 4 additional games. (Ryse, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Rare Replay) This was £260
I bought another copy of TC GR Wildlands $45
Additionally I bought my nephew a second control as it was £10 off so £45
I was charged £312, apparently I got Wildlands free.
Unbundled price for the above was £537, so saved £226.

Set of Hoyt Grand Prix 720 limbs.
I didn't buy from above page but from local archery shop where they had a set for £140 shop damaged (bit of paint missing). Now waiting for next shooting session to really try them out.

Shoulder of lamb reduced from £11.59 to £7.79. Popped in the freezer for now but a candidate for Easter Sunday dinner.

Haven't had a nice slow roasted shoulder for years. I just love the crispy skin/fat layer. Hmmm.... Yummy!

You know it's just right when the bone slides out with no effort.

Last year I cooked a few lamb legs on our BBQ. It's quite a reasonable size so I was able to put it on the high rack with the coals completely to one side and thereby avoid flare ups from any dripping fat. I covered it with foil for about the first hour then took the foil off for about another hour and I have to say it was superbly tender and succulent. I'll be doing it again as soon as the weather and price of lamb legs permits served with a really nice cous-cous.* Blimey I'm starving now just thinking about it all.
* made with: finely chopped spring onions - red onion - celery - cucumber - garlic chives & mint (both from our garden) - corriander - EV olive oil - lemon juice - salt - black pepper - whole sunflower seeds. I never measure anything, just taste, add what's needed and taste again until it's perfect.

Replacement piston for the greenhouse autovent. The old one has vanished... just after the missus "tided up".
