I popped into Costco in Bristol earlier this evening and picked up a tray of lamb steaks which for years has cost between £11 - 13ish.

Tonight the same tray with 6 or 7 steaks cost between £20 -23 depending on weight  :o, so sadly they went back in the fridge rather than my trolley.  :(

A taste of things to come....  :-\

Are you sure? If they are back in the fridge then you aren’t going to be tasting them!

I filled up at 1.47 today. It was 1.44 on Tuesday. Last tankful before was 1.34. I bet it is 1.60 by end of Jan.

It can’t be long before food prices start going up as a result of increased transport costs.

Get down to Morrisons in Porth where you can by a nice boneless shoulder joint for £6 a kilo or leg of lamb for £10 a kilo and cut your own👍

To me, its a simple concept.  If I want to taste a nice bit of cow, I eat cow.

If I want to eat some tasteless shit and fart non stop for the next 12 hours, I'll eat some vegan tastes nothing like cow shite.

Please stick to dead cow TB.

The consequences of doing otherwise don't bear thinking about. ;D
