Morrisons do not stock barrels of Twiglets or cheese footballs or mini cheesy biscuits. I'm going to have to venture into town to try Tesco now...

OMG Twiglets, quite possibly the worst food stuff ever in the history of man...

I reserve that position for my late nan's celery soup

Closely followed by any version of macaronni cheese

Deep frozen sprouts that have't been cooked properly. Still frozen in the middle and soggy on the outside. Works Christmas dinner a few years ago.

I would like to reassure you all that I was able to get some Twiglets and cheesy bics in the traditional barrel but alas, the footballs were all sold out. Shame on Sainsburys and Morrisons for not stocking them at all (suspiciously large displays of Pringles in both so I suspect industrial shenanigans) but top marks to Tesco.

Right, I can settle down and watch Despicable Me now.

Since when has going to Bingo become a Christmas tradition?

Call me old fashioned but I'm off to church.
