Middle Class Problems

So is ALDI gin! Particularly when Damsons have been soaking in it for 6months. (hic)
I suppose making my own Damson Gin and Damson Jams should give me a few Middle Class credits! I made my own Marmalade as well this year.

I made pear chutney yesterday. Does that make me middle class?

The pears were reduced to £1 a kilo for a quick sale. That probably reduces me to working or economy class.

I have never had a toast rack and I am definitely working class, but I have had a title.....Lady of the Manor of....

Oo-er yer highness! (Bobs a curtsy and retires backwards from room!)

'Lady Muck', Ella?

Elegran Yum. Would you share the recipe please. I buy bananas in bulk when they are reduced and make banana loaves.

Ella my husband has an obsession with collecting house bricks he is known locally as Lord Rubble so I guess that makes me Lady Rubble [snooty emoticon]

I'm making banana bread tomorrow DGD likes graggy's cake!

I cannot think of anything more snobby than taking a blooming Waitrose carrier bag to Aldi in order to "hide" the shopping. Who would you be hiding it from? Oh yes I get it the neighbours, who are probably doing exactly the same.

I have my groceries delivered (can't walk round store) and next door takes the carrier bags and reuses them. Apparently they go to France (her dd) and Spain (they have a property there!)
Therefore I can't disguise where my groceries come from.

I hadn't thought of that, gillybob as I don't have any neighbours

I take my ASDA carrier bags to Morrisons or my Aldi bag to M & S. But to deliberately try and disguise where you shop or worse still decant things bought at Aldi into the empty (more acceptable) brand bottles is a joke!

Yes, gillybob. It was a joke.

gillybob I'm surprised you didn't pick up on the the fact that merlotgran doesn't have neighbours. Obviously she has grounds too

I know that Merlot (give me a tiny bit credit please)

I do, Sel and 400 yds of drive

Ana You know me too well!!
I love taking my Lidl carriers into Waitrose.

Wow, that's not a drive, 400 yds is a road.

In the South that is

It's a bumpy farm road, Sel but I once filled in a form which was getting a bit intrusive so I referred to it as my drive!

merlot sssh, whatever, I told Gillybob I was going to check on my grounds, she said she was going ou't back.

Any bag will do, though I have lots of completely anonymous ones, like a couple of string bags, a flowery wheelie bag and a nylon one that rolls up very small to be carried in my handbag; so as long as I remember to take them with me into the shop, I don't need to have Waitrose, Sainsbury's or Aldi bags at all. [smug emoticon].I neither know nor care what that reveals about my social standing.

Duplication again. Time for bed.

I am afraid I get a sneaking enjoyment out of using one suupermarkets carrier bags in a rivals store.

I use Auchan bags in UK and Tesco and Sainsbury ones in France but always use Waitrose ones in Aldi.
