    when i was at primary school i was classed as posh Shows how many destitute families there were back then, coz we were not posh, although lived in a big house and had a big car so I guess you could see the reasoning.

    Tesco, Morrisons, Lidl(building a big new store at moment actually), Aldi, into Armadale you get a Asda too... as far as Livy which is about 7 miles, and you will also get a Sainsbury. Falkirk is a bit further so not strictly local.

    Posh is Charlie Bighams. So long as you can source that, which you can, you're OK.

    Or Cook frozen meals. Surprisingly good for frozen.

    Nearly had an Asda but that fell through, between my house and Port Glasgow, where M & S are located, there are actually 2 Aldi and 2 Lidl also

    I've always fancied Booths: https://www.booths.co.uk/

    It appeals to me, on various levels, rather more than Waitrose.

    Knutsford is our nearest branch (43 miles), which we occasionally visit, to go to Tatton Park and couple of restaurants we like out that way

    Wonder what their own-brand coffee beans are like: https://www.booths.co.uk/wp-content/...e_1200x675.jpg

    Marco.

    Our nearest would appear to be about 150 miles.
