Neither of us is that keen on quorn. I have The Quorn Cookbook (bought from their site) but everywhere they use quorn I use other products - there are substitutes available for all of them but the book itself is really quite good.
Also I see there is a new product out. Only available in Tesco and Holland & Barrett right now, but advertised in the mags and it has a site. Called Oumph and I shall take a wander round town on Wednesday and get some. The only big Tesco near us is appallingly claustrophobic and we both refuse to go there - towering stacks of products lining narrow aisles crowded with bad tempered people (who were doubtless perfectly happy when they went in). Just dreadful. So Holland & Barrett it is. Anyway I get 10% off all shopping I do there as a member of the Vegan Society
I’ve tried thinly slicing extra firm tofu, season it in bacon type spices and seasoning, frying it in oil and it is quite yummy.
I don't use it, but I don't have Facebook either. I refuse point blank to contribute to that *insert really bad swear word of choice* Zuckerberg whom I utterly despise. As soon as he swallows an app or company, I delete it from my machines. I know it limits me but I really don't care.
Skype is owned by Microsoft, not Zuckerberg, so you can use it if you can find anybody not using facetime
The business equivalent is quite popular for work - we use it all the time.
That’s a very sad thing for you all to have happen @Japes, and even more sad for his children. They’ll miss their time with you too. Grief’s rotten. Hugs

It's also most odd walking back up the road after a day out walking and not having him check how many miles I've done. It's even odder knowing I won't be having his older primary school aged child hurtling over to see if a walk to the park with me is OK when here during weekends and holidays anymore! Because Dad wasn't ever really well enough to do it, his child needed that kind of activity and he needed the rest from this much loved, but very over-active, child as well.
Even knowing all this we all got a massive shock this end of my little road when he died very suddenly last week and none of us have quite got our heads around the concept yet.
Given I did the day's walking, then cut my grass, and I've been hovering between 4.1 and 5.3 every time I checked all day, apart from the first one of the day which was an outrageously higher than usual fasting one, I've decided not to push my luck and do the fiddly bits of quiet gardening as well as the grass cutting.
But, in honour of the last conversation me and my neighbour ever had, I will sneak over to cut his front garden grass when I get a chance. One of his much older adult children used to come to do it and take the cuttings away, and the last thing I'd said to my neighbour was "Tell M, if there's space in my garden waste bin, it's fine to add your little bit of grass cuttings!"
