Well done, you’ll have so much freedom now! I hated learning to drive but forced myself to perservere. I was a really nervous driver for a while but I’m quite confident now. There are so many things you could buy, for treats I’d definitely say the golden blond chocolate spread, peanut butter bites, cookie dough bites, chocolate popcorn, truffle & olive oil crisps, sticky toffee loaf cakes, billionaires yumnuts, loaded millionaires shortbread, loaded brownies and bake at home cookies (in the frozen section). For meals I love the orzo and tomato pasta salad, burger slaw, skinny burgers, breaded chicken tenders, halloumi & chilli kebabs, battered onion rings, truffled cauliflower cheese, ploughman’s pots, harissa chicken bites and halloumi courgette bites. The takeaway food range is lovely too, especially the chinese boxes. Think I’ve gained 5 pounds just typing all that outGuys I think I'm gonna take a trip to m&s tomorrow, I passed my driving test 2 weeks ago and I'm trying to go out on my own more and more to get my confidence up so a trip to m&s sounds perfect to me
Hit me with things I need to get!
Let us know what you get!Thank you, I was exactly the same! Hated all my lessons (and I've had A LOT, it took me 7 years to finally get test ready) until the very end where it finally clicked! And now I have all this freedom to go to places like m&s whenever I likeWell done, you’ll have so much freedom now! I hated learning to drive but forced myself to perservere.

I only joined for the voucher so unsurprising still have the same 2 useless vouchers.
I’ve got a sparks card I obviously have no clue how it works as I have never received anything.Thank you, I was exactly the same!

Ooo and I've signed up for a sparks card as well, I've been reading a few posts and it sounds really good!
Had the standard kiev last night, not good, far too raw-garlic tasting. Some reviews on Ocado say the same too, so I now need to try the posh one to compare
In my learned opinion, those posh Gastropub Kievs are the best on the market, always crispy, real chicken breast (not formed like most are) I even tried Charlie Bigham’s new garlic chicken Kievs last week. His stuff usually trumps M&S and Waitrose but not on this occasion. They weren’t nearly as good, not crispy enough and not enough garlic butter.
they are nice but nothing to write home about Don't, once you've had the gastro bone-in kievs you won't be able to go back to the cheap ones!!! Whole different league!I usually get the Moy park Kievs from Ocado , normally the 4 pack … we have Kiev’s more than I care to admit , my son bloody loves them
You are all selling me on the gastro pub ones though !! I’m going to pick them up next time I’m in store
Is it immoral to give my child the shite ones and husband and I can have the nice ones ?
No, absolutely not, child will amost certainly prefer the shite ones anyway.
Agreed , we took him for a lovely lunch last Sunday at a slightly posh pub (MIL chose) … roast dinners were £18 to give you an idea
… he cried and said he wanted Toby Cavery so …. Shite Kievs it is !To be honest I'm with him on the Toby, I refuse to pay for a posh roast dinner because their roasties are never as good as mine and I'm not that good a cook, absolutely no expectations at Toby, just lots of food so happy to pay the tenner for it and even better if I can use a voucherAgreed , we took him for a lovely lunch last Sunday at a slightly posh pub (MIL chose) … roast dinners were £18 to give you an idea
