anyway, let me backtrack...this PORRIDGE box was in the back of - one of my kitchen cupboards....

i have no idea why i didn't chuck it away years ago...but i 'knew' that it was significant in some way....

i bought it...probably 2010 i suppose...used a couple of the sachets....and then put the box to the back of my cupboard and never used it again....

i 'know' the design or the date....well 'something' is important about that box...or i wouldn't have kept it for so long...i am quite 'feng shui' about chucking things out....whatever they might be....and nothing else in my cupboards or fridge is 'out of date'...
