28th May 2024...Fly home 🏠🌺😁









Best sight ever! 



Dave πŸ“ πŸ“ πŸ“ πŸ“ πŸ“ picking


On our way home we picked up shopping at Lidl of course.
By the checkout there is sometimes a pile of boxes, full of vegetables which are going to be binned......there was a whole tray of tomatoes....and these trays are 1€ !
A no brainer.,πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

These needed a little attention 

And these were perfect...plus a pepper!
All this for a euro!

Tom Soup and chopped tomatoes in the freezer by the evening!
