The books, three of them, make for compelling reading. They're nothing like Harry Potter; in fact they're really like nothing else I have read. A really good tale, but one that has you "thinking" the whole time. Supposed to be a children's' series of books, but they're for all ages. An understanding of quantum physics is not essential but would help!

My knowledge of quantum physics is somewhat limited.

I did once, when I was Language Assistant at a College, have to translate an article about Max Planck and how his work contributed significantly to the understanding of atomic and subatomic processes. It was a challenge translating that article from German into English.

I saw a Hornet today ! It didn't half make me jump when it crawled out from underneath a cupboard !

I wish creepy crawlies wouldn't creep around like that !

I could see a Coxs' Pippin. That would be okay. Fritters over here are vile, IMHO. But that sounds good. I may have to make my own.

Mind, a lot of shop-bought apples are pretty shite. Look fabulous, but not much in the way of flavour and with a wooly texture.

I have James Grieve, Jonagold, Egremont Russet, Granny Smith and Bramley Seedling in the garden, although cropping has been somewhat sporadic of late. I do need to cut back some surrounding trees and coppice the hazel...

The Granny Smith is inedible as is - we are much too far north here - but they're *brilliant* for using to make jams and jellies as they're packed with pectin. They also keep well till about March, and then they're good to add to puddings and pies.

I have a and a stack of malted milk biskits.

Thanks for the tip @Reynard , yeah it is Metacam, although I had already given it to him when I saw it , mixed with his food , he didn't even notice, cheated for his second tablet , bought a jar of chicken baby food , gave him a few little bits then hid the tablet in the next bit, success and much less stressful ………….for me that is

Ooohh I love Autumn, cooked a nice hearty Minestrone Soup for dinner (Angela Hartnett recipe).

I went to Canterbury, I’m back now. I went to see my dad, who doesn’t even know who I am anymore. Sad.

Leek & potato soup here tonight, followed by smoked chicken enchiladas. Just the thing for a dank autumn evening

No poncy recipes for me, just the typical Casa Reynard method of "wang in what you've got"

Couldn't you just have made it in a cup, like most folk!!

I spent most of the evening doing the ironing, washed it monday night, dried it Tuesday and ironed it Wednesday. All sorted till the weekend when I'll start again.

You see it's like a bit of string, it has a beginning and an end. The piece in between representing the journey between the two.

Tie the ends together and you can now travel anywhere along that loop as often as you want. Make a ball of the loop, and where one piece touches another allows you to now "jump" from one point to another.

Its been like a shift change here tonight. My bluetooth speakers been on charge all day, that was taken off charge and my Bluetooth headset put on charge. My Good Ladies phone has been on charge since mid afternoon, that was taken off charge and my phone put on charge. I've also put my tablet on charge.

Time for a methinks. And there's a chocolate brownie that has my name on it.

And drat... My intended method of travelling to the Seal Point Siamese show (bike-train-bike on the outward leg and chucking bike in friend's car on the homeward leg) has been scuppered by engineering works. Can't take a non-folding bike on a rail replacement bus.

Botheration. I was hoping I wouldn't have to drive...
