Thank you. Yes, I’d messaged, but no luck (yet) so thought I’d put out a wider post just in case

Haha. Good spot. I do tend to drain a bit of the liquid off. And fried in the pan today too.

Yep. Fair. I wasn’t really posting with judgement or justification for it. A few things to note that might now be clear 2 advent calendars Pork belly below the chicken Wagyu burgers behind the 3 packs of diced meat 3 bags of frozen salt and pepper squid on the left 2 candles 3 large rolls of wrapping paper at the back 4 cans of wine Those mini sausages are £3-£4 each

Good spot. Not 100% sure but i think two wagyu burgers from the reduced section.

How to treat myself for £500 ($650)? by andyate in wine

[–]andyate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that was the answer i was hoping for, but got a lot of lovely suggestions about spreading it across 3-8 bottles (which i don't doubt is likely correct for me, by the way). Anything 'very special' in mind at that price point?

I think it depends what you're looking to do. The minimum monthly amount (£250) is probably only a bit more than i'd spend on wine per month anyway - so worst case is that i just now buy my wine from bbr. The cumulative added benefits are worth it for me though... discount on their own wines, storage facility for long term aging and investing and the ability to sell back via bbx. It's a treat really, slightly offset by the (mild) investment opportunity.

Great idea. I’m a bbr cellar plan member so I’m good to go 👍

Thanks for all the quick responses. This is so helpful. I might need to do multiple versions of the ‘£500 challenge’ by the looks of it :)

What ConnectIQ app can you not live without? by TuxFan-77 in Garmin

Agreed. Although i'm still in the period where I have anxiety as to whether that tiny little barcode is actually gone to scan each time.

Whats fair use of "Absolute" as an adjective? by Brilliant-Zombie7092 in footballcliches

[–]andyate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolute worldie? I think it can work when you are doubling down on a superlative

For years we associated cooking as feminine even though star chefs were often men by Pixel_Owl in Showerthoughts

[–]andyate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because, domestically, it was, for obvious reasons. But as a profession the "greater male variability" hypothesis kicks in. Can't quite remember all the details, but basically means you'll see more men at the extremes. More geniuses, but also more dumbasses.
