Right, I do suffer from a ridiculous enjoyment of the non-official transfer day thread where some folks share thoughts on snacks to be had and various other things.
SO, I'm going to flag up Co-op promo crisps called Shore - by the Scottish Seaweed Company - pretty darned good.
Multipack of Wispas
Banana (1 of 5 a day ticked)
Cheese roll
Creme Egg later
Chinese take out

I do want to hear stories of Wagon Wheels and any retro snacks.

Had spicy mince and tatties for lunch from the excellent Nourish Take Out in Dundee, and have some enchiladas ready to make tonight.

Just satsumas for later I’m afraid.

In solidarity I’ve just polished off a packet of Hoola Hoops (Lidl’s take).
Nobbys nuts where shared out the other evening so none for today.
Will power should prevent finishing off the S&V Pringles.
In another gross error of judgement I only have 1 bottle of Sol remaining from the 12.

Started with Air fried bacon on toast thus morning. Then had blueberry , strawberry ,banana and pomegranate seeds smoothies followed by a tunnocks tea cake.😄

Eyeing a packet of Jives at the moment. If you've not tried them , get them from Lidls. They're like wee twixes but better.

I did swither on starting this thread earlier today but given all I’d had was magnesium and vitamin D tablets as well as a litre of water, I figured I would be on the receiving end of a pile on 😂😂

Just back from a 3 week all inclusive holiday and am having to watch what I am eating just now as I am still in the elasticated waist stage. Want to be able to see my toes in the near future.

I’ll be spending the next couple of days at a vegan friend’s house, so the 4 rashers of bacon I’ve got left in the fridge will be getting obliterated before I leave. Warbuton’s white bread and knock-off Lurpack, cos I’m not made of money.

Enchiladas for dinner.
My wife got a heap of decent chocolate bars for her birthday which will be sampled.
Lidls cheapest salted peanuts which are delicious.
There’s a whole Brie in the fridge which is tempting with some jacobs cream crackers.
Halloumis fries and chicken wings.

I haven’t eaten since my earlier post. And despite going for a 10 minute walk outside at 6.30am followed by a 30 minute walk on the treadmill at the gym, I’m now heading back to the gym to run a 5k. I deserve a McDonalds after this.

Just polished off two sausage sandwiches, a packet of Aldi Monster Claws (Munch rip off) and a Tunnocks Snowball for dinner.

My walking football session this morning is giving me a clear conscience to dip into some of the following later on:

* Multipacks of Square crisps and Discos
* Aldi Jives (as mentioned already)
* Aldi Titans (Mars bar)
* Wispas multipack
* Estrella Damm 6 pack
* Bag of Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli

plus half a bag of salted peanuts, the remains of a family bar of Galaxy, a packet of custard creams.....

and a banana.
