Guest guest Posted October 25, 2000 Report Share Posted October 25, 2000 Hello Pam I have a friend who once lived in Peterborough. Yes, I live in the UK - Scotland. I am Scottish, though well travelled in England with a number of friends who live there. I'm 7 miles from Stirling. Half way between Edinburgh and Glasgow, the former over an hour's drive, the latter about an hour. Very central. Hello Steph In Stirling we have a very good Health Store - two, in fact. One family run the other a branch of a well known chain. Also a good veggie shop - greengrocers - and many of the supermarkets now stock vegetarian and needed ingredients. Vegetarian is really much more easily accepted nowadays which is good, previously it was difficult getting ingredients. But no local vegetarian resaurants, though lots of Indian etc., and a number of places do cater by having one or two veggie things on their menus. Edinburgh has a marvellous place, opened about 25 years ago when veggie was considered really cranky. Marvellous menu - but VERY pricey. I have dabbled, and eat meat no more than once a week now, mainly fish and chicken as well as (till now ) the occasional veggie meal. My daughter makes great veggie meals but is always rather vague when I ask for the recipe. :<( Perhaps because she does it " out of her head " with lots of variations. But one thing that put me off is that she takes AGES to prepare and cook them, and we are all starving, our stomachs thinking our throats have been cut! I don't have the time nor the patience now and really need veggie meals that are reasonably quick to prepare and cook.
