It's mighty handy you dropped your phone at that moment.

Short loop for me today..

Started the day by cracking open a new tin of Yorkshires finest..



Found this bizzarre gold pendant at Burbage


^googled it .. nope, still non the wiser?





Rode past a guy with a very fancy carbon gravel bike.. back wheel off, tyre sealant all over the shiz..

I asked if he was ok? .. he'd broken a spoke so his tyre wouldn't seal.. moral of the story, use tubes!

Big peanut butter fan here. Could you give me a review of "Proper Nutty" please?

Me too.. without going full artisnal and importing biz from NZ (which i have considered) .. Proper Nutty is the next best thing, it's made by a husband and wife team who after traveling around Aus/Nz were disappointed that they couldn't find good nut butter here in the UK so they set about making their own in their small workshop in Yorkshire.. the flavour is bang on but also the goldilocks consistancy.. i often find Manilife too runny, too much oil.. the nut butter can often drip from your knife onto the kitchen side while transitioning between jar and toast.. Whole Earth and Meridian can be a bit too earthy for my pallette.. while Pip is a little too sweet..

I get the big tins of Proper Nutty from Morrisons for around £8ish.. (small jars are around £4) it's actually cheaper than buying directly from Proper Nutty.. I think Morrisons is more of a northern thing so if you want a jar, lmk..

Exactly what I was after Agree re Whole Earth (especially) and Meridian. I used to buy Manilife in the big plastic tubs and I'm sure it was less oily than in the supermarket jars.
I don't go in the local Morrisons very often but will now make a point of popping in and talking a look.

That's my go-to (deep roast crunchy) when buying locally. I've tried a couple of different brands online but can't think of their names, off the top of my head

Sorry, went a bit off topic there. You'd think I'd know better!
