I've just opened the door to a lovely young chap who wanted to tell me about a new service thats available in our area
This is how it works
They deliver the correct quantities of top quality food and a recipe (based on Heston blooming wotsits) whenever I want and I just cook them
It was all going so well until he told me that it worked out at only £6 per head (my face must have given me away as he hastily started telling me how these were top eatery ingredients)
I told him to do one, he insisted I listen to more until i said I would call the dog, he did one, we don't even have a dog
There are several of these types of thing - one of them is advertising on TV at the moment. It is an interesting concept but with a family of 4 the cost is ridiculous. Even for 2 it is not really on. I wouldn't want to spend £6 for the whole meal for 4 on a mid week evening.
Maybe the occasional special meal, but I got details of one and all they did was a box for several meals a week at about £7 odd a head per meal - something like £64.95 (incl P&P) for 4 meals a week for 2. Crazy!
I remember some young man coming to our door when I was a child. My step-father answered and said he was not interested. As he went to close the door the young man put his foot in the gap ... Big mistake! I thought the door was going to come off its hinges. When he stopped crying he limped away.
