Whelks,winkles... All crustaceous seafood except prawns. Can't do crab.lobster or scallops.
Don't like the way they are killed and cooked. Save our Scallops. SOS !!!
Also HATE evaporated milk.
When I had my blood pressure taken a couple of weeks back it was 148 / 80.
Someone said it could be a "White collar reading" and suggested I buy a home monitor.
I bought one from Lloyds chemist and it arrived this morning. Didn't have batteries supplied so I had to go and but some. Takes 4 X AAAs.
Anyway.just did 3 separate readings... And the reading is 124 / 84.
So I am much happier now.
Here is a link to the monitor.
It was pretty cheap. £14.99 + £2.75 postage. It arrived and needed a signiature.

When you order it you get a choice of cuff size. You have to measure you upper arms and order accordingly. The whole unit is surprisingly good for the price.
It has got endorsements and is a very good monitor for the price.
I would thoroughly recommend it.
