Di and I voted simultaneously on the SPOTD today when they decided to get in touch with us.  At 5:30am, the phone beside the bed rang loudly once and then didn’t ring again.  Seriously, if you’re ringing people at that hour of the day, check the number BEFORE you dial, not AFTER you’ve dialled - quickly hanging up does not avoid waking us.  Grr!

The people at Birdseye frozen foods recently had a promotion in a local supermarket - buy one packet of frozen fish and get a packet of frozen chips for free.  Sounds good.  Sounds like a meal solution right there, doesn’t it?  Until you get home and realise that the fish needs to be cooked at 190C but the chips need to be cooked at 230C.  Why?  Why would the same company make two foods that belong together but apparently have to be cooked in separate ovens? Because they’re SPOTDs…
