Love yum yums . Basically a toffee donut

Tins of beans & sausage brings back childhood horrors!

I remember tins of beans and sausage being shared out with the family which sometimes meant you got half a sausage!

Yum yums are truly delicious,  I agree.

Couldn’t agree more Bren . Not entirely sure those things were sausages . They were definitely very unpleasant. To this day I can’t have sausage and beans next to each other on the same plate!

Pretty decisive - nobody like beans & sausage - but Yumyums are OK.
I have 2 sorts of Yumyums - Raspberry Funfetti and Millionaire's. https://www.thedeliciousdessertcompany.c.../yum-yums/
The labelling makes me laugh! "430 kcal per yum yum. Adults need around 2000kca a day". Its encouraging you to eat 5 a day, I think!!

erm??  I like the sausages, it's the beans that don't cut the mustard for me, or yum yums (whatever they are?)

You didn't say that you like them - just that there weren't enough sausages for everyone!
For the record, I don't like the beans with veggie sausages.

I could manage 5 yumyums a day, but not funfetti (whateverthat is). It's got to be toffee or salted caramel for me but I'd give millionaires a go though. 

Yesterday gave away a very much loved, old but still serviceable 4ft artificial Xmas tree. At the age of about 15 in Thailand my mum suggested I was too old for a Xmas tree, they weren't that easy to source there in those days . I was inwardly devastated but proud at being considered grown up. I sadly resigned myself to a treeless Christmas. Then, I believe it was Christmas Eve, my mum's American friend turns up with a huge number of boxes. These turn out to be a 4ft artificial tree with all the tinsel and glass baubles needed for decoration. It was beautiful and the most wonderful surprise. The American friend had PX privileges (the Yank supermarket abroad, like our NAAFI) and she had bought these as my Christmas present. Mum must have known but she never let on.

So this 4ft tree has survived nearly 60 years of use and is now destined next year to be (among several others) part of an outside display attached by brackets to the outside of a house. Part of a p*ssing contest of Xmas decorations in a village nearby. I not too sure my tree will cope with the weather, but that's not my problem. In the meantime I'm using a YS 6 footer I bought in Tesco for £7.50 a couple of years ago.

Well done, JJB. Its not easy giving away an old "friend" who shows up every Christmas. I gave away all our Christmas decorations a few years ago and there were some that had been in the family for a similarly long time. Can't remember what they were now - time is a great healer/thief of memory.
