Yer I can see the reason for no carbs hehe. Just curious because I went protien heavy for a rotator cuff injury a few years back and was wondering how much protien you are having a day.Broken toe
Some munter from the blandfordWhat you going to eat for a quid a day?
Being a bit skint I've decided to see if I can live on £1 per day for food and drink. I'm going to still eat what I have in the house, what I can grow, or forage.
Hopefully I'll last more than a week before I order a takeaway.Is
Does that £1 a day solely on ingredients and not taking into account gas, electricity, fuel & timeSome munter from the blandford
Yeah I went via Ottawa. I stayed there for a few days.I’ve seen loads on the 401, you’ll likely have taken that way unless you went via Ottawa.
Dusk and dawn are the dangerous times with them, you won’t see them until the last minute, they know their predators try and avoid the roads too so it’s generally. Time of the year matters also
Oh yeah. I've got kids. I'm not going to starve or deprive them. My ex offered to buy me fish and chips when she was getting some for her and my son yesterday but I didn't take her up on it.Some munter from the blandford

There's a charity down here called the felix project I do some stuff for. They get sent a load of out of date gear cook massive batches and distribute it to kids who don't get fed correctly.Aldi give leftover stuff to foodbanks.
That sounds a good project. The soup kitchen got donated a huge amount of dried cherries to make things with from a factory and they couldn't use them because they were in unmarked bags with no label or date.There's a charity down here called the felix project I do some stuff for.
