Have you heard of Roderick Tye?

I hadn’t until I googled him just now.

At least he was a real person. Unlike JRH.

I sat next to him in the fourth year of Junior School, and I thought he was wonderful and intelligent and very caring.

Do you leave the skin on for these recipes?

Yup. Just top and tail, then run down them lengthwise with a vegetable peeler.

Lexi stole a pork loin steak earlier. Didn't know whether to curse her or cuddle her.

It's not as if I don't feed her or anything...

Mo (Smokey) would have run off with it 'growling' as she went.

That's exactly what Lexi did

My back was only turned for a split second while putting the plastic tray in the sink.

Head down against a strong headwind, pedalling as fast as I could with ye olde Sturmey ticking rapidly in 3rd gear, Union bottle dynamo whirring away and a whole 2.4W of feeble amber glow casting shadows against the darkening night, I just about made the off-licence before closing time with seconds to spare. Disaster averted, and a nice leisurely ride home with bottles chinking in the saddle bag. My 40 year old utility bike can still deliver the goods when the odds are stacked against it.

My fushia is looking a bit battered, and I don’t mean ready for deep frying!

I'm sure The Strawbs sang about fuchsias in the 70's. Going to have to Google

A child denied all love can't weep
But bravely bears her life alone
So Fuchsia as you try to sleep
You dream of friends you've never known

 

[midlife]

Oh Lady Fuchsia

 

[slowmotion]

I've put my ski socks on. Morale has been raised.

Morning. It looks very wet and windy out . It is a shame for those National Garden Scheme gardens that are open today to have all this rain now !

She's just a moggie but the vet's description was 'British Blue', she likes bikes though.
