I knew she was expecting a visit from one daughter but to have two visiting will do her the world of good.
I have some points I want to raise about the handling of this ban, but will leave it until I have time to try and compose something less than a novel length post.
Good morning Allira 😊

Good Morning Allira, hope you have a lovely time with your daughters, thinking of you x

It's been on my mind, so I have to say that whilst I've seen people very upset by being set upon, it was dismissed and labelled a "bunfight".
I wonder when it changed?
Not that I've seen Allira involved in any fighting, with buns, rock cakes, or anything else.
Quite the opposite.

Good morning from another grey wet day in what should still be Lancashire, though I now accept is Gtr Manchester
It’s just the kind of morning to enjoy one of Allira’s posts. I’m sure she’d be up to date with the price of eggs and what causes egg shells to be white or brown. FWIW I had two brown and one white hens, all produced eggs with brown shells.

We're going to have to give Allira a virtual voice through osmosis, if we can't have her here in person.

It's very doable, subtly.

Sorry petra - of course. I will stop being facetious. 😊
The subject matter at hand is important & I don’t want to derail the purpose of it in any way.

Norty - as Allira would say!! (I'm not belittling her, before I get deleted!)

We have to advance this discussion in the way that only the chosen one thinks is appropriate.

Just popped into say Good Morning Allira, we're all still here and here we're going to stay. We want you back! We'll keep your spirit going somehow.

Is there anything else we can do regarding getting Allira reinstated petra ?

Sadly not 😥 They stopped all communication some time ago.

petra Thu 04-Jun-26 08:06:23

Has anyone any ideas how you get to be a chosen one.
That would someone who is allowed to control threads, be very rude to members, etc, etc.

Steady now Petra you don't want to be accused of thread control 😉😉

Best wishes to Allira

With respect Spinnaker someone has to be the adult here.
Rules are there to be adhered too.

Anyone know how Allira is holding out ?

She’s doing ok. But thankfully her 2 daughters are coming over from Australia. One arrived a couple of days ago. The visits couldn’t have come at a better time 🙏

BREAKING NEWS:

SueDonim I’ve just read that in the interests of net zero, Sainsbury’s own boxed eggs will only have white shells going forward.

Now isn’t THAT so interesting? 😁

Thank you so much for bringing this very important subject to our attention but can we get back to the OP. Otherwise I might be forced to throw my toys out of the pram. 😉

kittylester Thu 04-Jun-26 07:32:41

If there is gf pizza on offer, I'm in. Any chance of gf garlic bread too?

Bellanonna Thu 04-Jun-26 07:29:58

I thought white and brown eggs were exactly the same, nutritionally. It’s whether a white or brown hen lays them. (Something to do with the earlobes too). 🐔 🍗 🐓

FriedGreenTomatoes2 Thu 04-Jun-26 07:29:38

No, we’re okay GG13 the ‘white shells only’ policy is for Sainsbury’s own brand boxed eggs only.

I shall be buying my BB’s (and crumpets 👋 to you EllanVannan if you’re reading!) Saturday teatime for my Sunday breakfast as usual!

GrannyGravy13 Thu 04-Jun-26 07:19:01

White eggs have a carbon footprint 12% less than brown ones.
It’s all part of Sainsbury’s drive towards net zero 🙋‍♀️

I will have to go elsewhere for Burford Browns 🤷‍♀️

That’ll look so much better in my food waste bin! Thanks for the info. FGT2.
Let’s hope that presages other good news.
