I appear to have a minor case of the sniffles. when our son visited about three weeks ago he had the sniffles, I haven't been very bright since, now I know he had passed it on. When I took My Good Lady to the hospital to visit her daughter tonight I had to stay in the cafe whilst she went up onto the ward, I wasn't impressed

Hope you feel more chipper soon xxx

I have found my mandolin.

Therefore I can now make my pickled ginger.

Not sweet music?

Culinary music

I am lousy at other forms of music. The cats run away when I try to sing.

Cor blimey, the ginger I bought on Ridley market packs a right old wallop...

Cotswold Airport, is that Staverton, or somewhere else?

Well every cloud has a silver lining. MrsP came back from Docs with a prescription that we can only get filled in Boots. I schlep off to Skegness Boots , a 20-mile round trip. Get scrip filled and , coming out; notice Greenwoods opposite has a closing down sale. Picked meself up a new suit, fits like a glove and marked at 60% off on the label but then they took me another 10% off at the till. Apparently Greenwoods have gone bust and is in receivership.
Woo Hoo.

I've been doing some research and I may have discovered what my frame is.

I have done some research this week on my family tree. It wasn't easy, but I like the result. You might like to see it.

Things seem to be making some sense now the stamped letter "F" on the bottom bracket would signify a year of manufacture 1956. The lack of a frame number on the fork could be due to the fact that it was painted on.

They're gorgeous.
Our topic in Nursery for the next 2 weeks is owls. We have been enjoying the story of the Owl Babies and next Tuesday we have a visitor bringing her owls to the classroom. Really looking forward to seeing the children's reactions. The lady is so good with the children.

I went out for a ride this evening. Coming down the High Street, I got a tantalising whiff of curry, followed twenty seconds later by a blast of patchouli. Barnes seemed pretty close to paradise.

 

[Illaveago]

I'm sorry but I don't like the smell of curry.

Yellow sticker hunting this evening. Co-op was good, Tesco a bit crummy, but the fridge is now reasonably well stocked.

Finally lost my rag with the very grabby regular in Tesco after she snatched a bunch of flowers clean out of my hands. Have to admit the language I directed at her was less than ladylike.

It was the only cat-safe bunch as all the others had lillies in them.
