Morning.
It is wet and windy here this morning .
Breakfast this morning was white fish pate !




For Georgie not me !

Probably do you no harm. I am pretty sure we once had fish based Kitcat served to the farm labourers in my farming days. Farmer and wife had been to the Highland Show and got some free samples which were put on a shelf in the kitchen. After we had eaten it was noticed that the tins were missing. Farm cats were not pampered and got porridge in the morning like the rest of us.

Spent most of the day still sorting my "filing system". Found lots of old local newspapers which had bits I had written and a lot of cycle club news including Steve who did the West Highland Way by mountain bike in 11hours and 9 minutes while raising a considerable amount of money for charity.
A copy of Power of Attorney which gives son and DIL leave to shove me in a care home if they think fit and administer my affairs. DIL was Administrator for a care home before the family arrived so is pretty clued up about them.
Do I really need a map of Kuwait City and a spares book for a Seagull Forty Featherweight outboard? Could probably sell the latter as I got a few quid for a spares book and service manual for SU carburetors. DIL does these deals on the bay for me and has sold quite a few thing which were easily posted.

Dudley's in a foul mood down here. Heaven knows what he's going to be like when Eunice gets hold of him.

There was a mouse at the top of the compost heap, when I took the cover off. I was wearing thick gloves and returned him (or her) to the field. It immediately ran back in the direction of the compost heap. I know they can sneak through very tiny gaps. Another mouse was quick to dive down into the heap. Possibly she has babies down there.

I thought that if I feel drunk I might as well have a reason for it.
A couple of glasses of red should help .
In the meantime . Georgie has brought a friend into the house . The friend is hiding behind a bookshelf. Georgie has taken up watch over it and has settled down sort of sleeping .

Had a fabby supper this evening. The last of the lamb, plus basmati rice, and a wonderful sweet potato, coconut & spinach curry.

The curry recipe was out of the current Tesco magazine, and I'd really recommend it. The only changes I made was I swapped tamarind paste for lemon juice as I'm not overly fond of tamarind (and thus omitted the extra lime juice), plus I added a can of chick peas and a veggie stock cube.

The prediction for up these parts, 200mph winds and deep(possibly 2 inches) snow.

Yeah, that's the one.

It's funny, when it comes to curry, I actually prefer veggie ones to meat ones.

Anyways, I'm going to curl up in bed with the curling.

Nunnight one and all xxx
