mmmmm..... cheap jar olives and anchor butter pats on the plate. Nice.

At the prices charged, I'm surprised it was Anchor and not Echo marge

Aye, decent beer.
Five pubs so far and growing.

Shame Leeds has never had its own brewe... oh, hang on ...

Coffee flavored ice cream. Anyone know where you can readily buy the stuff? Checked pretty much all the major supermarkets but to no avail.

The thing I like about them is they do a "light" beer as well as a standard brew - you don't see that often in a micro brewery where beers with daft names and high strengths seem to be the norm.

I only like two flavours of icecream: coffee and lemon (sorbet don't count, it's not icecream).

I can only suggest an Italian deli or possibly Waitrose

Just checked Waitrose website and they sell it, good call!

Would have never checked Waitrose. As I don't like their sterile almost hospital like environment in store.

Coffee ice cream with apricot sorbet - a match made in heaven and consumed frequently and with hat pleasure whenever I am in the south of France.

Just made some chicken & chorizo soup, and lovely it is too, but I was just wondering what the situation is regarding freezing it? If it was veg soup I'd have no hesitation in doing it but it's the chicken that's making me think twice.

Providing you didn't start off with previously frozen chicken and you reheat it thoroughly, there shouldn't be a problem from either a health or aesthetic point of view
