    Don't think we have Picalilli either :-(

    It's something us Southerners eat with our cold turkey and ham on Boxing Day, as opposed to going out whippet racing :-)

    Is the piccalilli crisis trending on Twitter yet ?

    Have tried Morrisons, Tesco x2 and Co-Op. All sold out.

    Have till Friday to resolve issue, so might have to start a local Piccalilli Watch scheme.

    Didn't Big Rob used to have a shop. Think he has moved to France now. But he doesn't like to talk about it much.

    I've got fookin big hole in my tooth. (and only half a jar of Picalilli)

    I'd suggest a real cure using a clove, but I dont think you can handle the tooth.

    Thanks, Arthur but I've managed to get hold of some Picalilli and the tooth is alright now. They're obviously looking in the wrong places.

    Get the train from Mottingham to Lee, there's a deli there with loads of Picalilli.

    Am coming down with a cold so bought a packet of lockets to help with my blocked nose. Worked fine, but also managed to take half of one of my fillings with it...

    Christmas is ruined because she's had me cleaning everything from top to bottom since the end of bleedin November.

    Then apparently, you have to move everything and put it in a differnet place !

    @kin 'ell. Give me strength.

    It's only 20 odd relatives coming round for 2 days. FFS !

    I think wars have been won more quickly & less painlessly.
