Off to see if a local branch of a particular retailer still stocks lithium AA cells at $6 per pair. That's a 40% discount.
@matigo Lemsip is a lemon-flavoured hot drink containing 650 mg of paracetamol (an analgesic), and 10 mg phenylephrine hydrochloride (a decongestant) to help to relieve headache, fever, blocked nose, body aches and pains, and a sore throat.
A Twitter contact (also former ADN-user) & I collaborated in thinking up some unlikely cocktail combinations, the best one being the "ginslip" (so called because it's wrong on so many levels) which consisted of gin & Lemsip, aka the gin'n'lemsip.

@kdfrawg One canned product I go out of my way to find is Amadeus brand camembert or brie. Open the can and a plain ordinary mold-ripened is revealed. Plus, sometimes Aldi stocks giant Greek-style baked beans that contain mostly beans, with just enough sauce to fill the spaces between.

Eucalyptus regnans (mountain ash) is a native tree, the world’s tallest flowering plant, often reaching 280 feet tall.
Today I bought some ham which had been smoked using wood from the mountain ash species.
It’s very tasty indeed.
