    A really good find!

    We have a top quality local butchers, unfortunately they make Waitrose prices look reasonable, £20 wouldn't buy enough meat for the weekend.

    Drinking wine with meal reduces risk of developing T2 by 14%

    Found a 2019 study on T2 diabetics in Scotland, guess what percentage were classed as In Remission
