I have Maxwell & Williams S&P grinders here - had them all our married life and they are still going strong!

The Canadian brand Trudeau is very good and long lasting

The last few days have been a shopping frenzy for me! Bought a fan for the kids' bedroom on Sunday, Tuesday bought jewellery for me and for BIL's girlfriend for Xmas plus a handbag for my friend for Xmas; yesterday more Xmas shopping for the kids; and today so far I've bought DVD's for kids for Xmas, wine for me, and bed sheets for kids - all on-line while I'm supposed to be working 
Oh plus I 'bought' a holiday house for a week during Xmas holidays in Anglesea. Credit card bill will be shocking this month!

thanks for the recommendations on the S&P grinders. We have had some from Coles for about 10 years but they have become very blunt so need to purchase new ones.

I have 2 absolutely useless S & P grinders here at the moment,  I paid $25 for the last pepper grinder (Maxwell Williams perspex) and although it seems to be adjustable, the grains are still to large for me.  I don't know the brand name of the salt grinder but it won't grind River Murray salt    I bought a $6 pepper mill full of peppercorns at Costco last time I was over visiting DD and it worked better than any of the expensive ones I've had - that is until I needed to get some whole peppercorns out of it for a recipe and then I couldn't put it back together properly and it has never worked since     

Great shopping everyone, Gert a few of us received a box like that this week

My M&W S&P grinders are stainless steel. Really easy to fill and use.

I think it sounds expensive if it is 18 months old, the warranty is nearly finished.

I had a big shop today Nigella seed $2.00 😄😄😄

I bought a new ceiling fan for our bedroom on Monday cost the same price for the electrician to install.  lucky the fan was reduced.

Your goodies look good Gert be interested to hear what you think of the baking dish.

The baking dish is really solid . May be a while before I test it.
