I hung my washing out earlier, the rain is now hammering down, I am in my night attire and TVC is in the shower so looks like it is getting a second wash.

I'm currently cooking tea.. sausages, bacon, lentils and red wine....

Baked slices of aubergine here with olive oil, seàsoning, herbs, cheddar and parmesan cheese. Rather tasty

Aubergine parmigiana - I'm on my way, that's one of my favourite things to eat!

I have some of these very small biskits left. They do not taste of anything very much, so may not help your munchies.

I have the recipe for those somewhere...

Speaking of recipes, does anyone have a good recipe for rocky road? Want to make some for a friend's birthday. I normally bake a cake, but I'm a bit tight for time this time round...

I would be very happy to try home made ones. They also might be just a tad bigger, I suppose.
They are a bit like posh jammy dodgers. They were given to me as a gift, along with a zinc wine goblet, by someone who had been to Germany on their holibobs.
It is to be noted that the vessel is zinc, not the wine.

@CarlP If you wish to move to an even bigger tent I have a very nice Outwell 4 man with separate extended porch if you wish to go down that route/try it out. All areas are full standing height. Very very roomy. Hardly used. Family circumstances seems it's no longer required.

Aaaargh, thought I had something similar in one of my german cookery books, but not, it seems... But going on the description / ingredients, it looks like a sweet shortcrust-type base, with a marzipan filling, and then the redcurrant jelly on the top. Sounds fairly straightforward to try and replicate in the kitchen. I reckon a basic biscuit dough should sort it...

Northern France is looking grim as we draw closer to Calais.

I bet it looks like Paradise compared to Blackpool this morning.A quick visit to the in laws.Mother in laws phone died.So Blackpool was the best place to go lots of parking compared to Preston town centre.
But oh boy Blackpool is not my cup of tea.

I thought I might be today, because of the bank holiday this mornings yoga was cancelled and I'd got nothing planned for the day. But as it turned out, by the time I'd been down the barbers, done some weeding, cleaned the car and been back to the dentist the day passed quite quickly and I haven't been bored.
