Not for many years, not a fan of zoos.....I prefer to see the animals in much larger enclosures or free.

When my kids were small I would take them on the bus....quite a trek from the Norf London suburbs!

Have you ever helped peeps with small children and a buggy and bags on or off a bus?

You can overpower the other flavours if too generous with the herbage. I use fresh, less likely to do that, plus they is growing outside my back door and on the window ledge!

Did you hear that on morning TV today Nicola Sturgeon was spoken of and they ran a picture of a silverback gorilla by mistake ?

Seems so, and of course the lowest paid and those on benefits will suffer the worst from price hikes

YIPPEEEEE it's nearly the weekend, mini twass arrives tonight for another weekend escape from the smoke. What will you be doing over the weekend?

No thanks hoots, got some spicy sweet chilli salmon to have when mini twass gets here with broccoli and new potatoes

I very rarely go into a Waitrose at all. Things are very spenno in there

Today I shopped in Iceland. Their king prawns are fabulous! Ever tried them? I am sure Waitrose would charge half as much again!

Seeking sustainability

Iceland is committed to the principles of sustainability in seafood sourcing, and we have a Fish and Seafood Sustainability and Welfare Policy for our Iceland brand suppliers to address this issue.

All suppliers of Iceland brand products must have a written Fish Sustainability Policy which is mirrored in their procurement policies and product specifications. This must outline how full traceability of all raw materials is in place and routinely verified. Additionally, checks must be in place for all raw material supplies to ensure that the fish has been caught within the legal parameters and quota management criteria. Measures must be in place to avoid over-fishing or depletion of exploited populations.

For sea-caught fish, in addition to legal quota management controls, all fish must be scientifically assessed as being caught within sustainable limits. A risk assessment must be undertaken to identify the environmental impact of the fishing, and species must be managed in accordance with key scientific indices, with practical measures taken to maintain breeding populations which are capable of sustaining or growing the current population. The fishing methods used must be the most selective available to minimise by-catch and the risk to marine mammals. We do our utmost to discourage the capture of fish just prior to or during their breeding seasons.

Suppliers of Iceland brand farmed fish must have a documented Fish Welfare Policy and Environmental Management System for farms, which are routinely audited. Key measures include ensuring the appropriate siting of all open cage sea farms, which should have been subject to an Environmental Impact Assessment; verifying that all feed is sourced from sustainable, well-managed stocks; and ensuring that suppliers adhere to appropriate maximum stocking densities. Farms are also required to adopt the Farm Animal Welfare Council “Five Freedoms”, outlined above.

I've never knowingly eaten horsemeat, so I have no idea.

Have you - or anybody you know - ever slipped on a banana skin?

Thank you, I hope there is plenty of Clash in it but I suspect it will be earlier stuff.

Whatever the question was.
