I prefer crisps with no salt or flavouring, but they're getting harder to find. The plain 'kettle chips' only have a small amount. But whilst most ar around 28% fat , only about 3% is saturated fat as sunflower oil is used by most crisp fryers these days

Yes, I prefer the plain ones too.

That used to happen to me. I'd stick with Doc Marten's Air-Ware because they're not only comfortable (when worn in) but easily available in size 12. Yet I had no chance gently to ease them in, having to walk two miles in to work straightaway. The first week or so of term was always a trial, especially where they rubbed the back of my heel, even though I felt like I was bouncing, walking on the moon!

For those who know their BWV numbers, the number of my posts has recently entered the magical range of organ works. This one is shortly to leave the Organ Trio Sonatas behind (BWV 525 - 530) and embark on a journey through his Preludes and Fugues (BWV 531 +).

So for a while each post will remind me of one of his major organ works. biggrin.gif

Bliss! smile.gif

Edit: Just noticed that b-c's count has just passed a telephone number from my childhood - where's Kinderszenen when you want it?!
