London Bridge was littered with abandoned umbrellas this morning.

Mary Poppins invasion?

I'm sure you'll think of something suitably dull to post....

Where's the rest of you?

Don't tell me..... your heart's in Deal.

You old romantic :-)

Must be, not that I saw any.

They were probs. outside St. Pauls feeding the birds....

I always seem to attract the attention of the pub bore!

I do hope not, that bounder Livingstone got that made illegal.

Yebbut, Mary Poppins is Practically Perfect in every way....

That was Jean Darwell, Ma Joad from The Grapes of Wrath.

Went yellow stickering this evening. Tesco was a bit of a bust other than a pack of cherry scones and three nets of tangerines. Also, another one of the grabby regulars has come out of the woodwork after nearly a year's absence so didn't stand a chance. There was a whole case of strawberries but I couldn't even get my mitts on a single punnet...

I did get some nice bits in the co-op though... Got half a dozen Old Cotswold Legbar eggs - the ones in the blue shells, a lovely big pork pie, four pints of organic milk, a steak for the girls and a pineapple.

Noooo, what I do is cut them in half lengthwise then drizzle them in olive oil, grind a little black pepper and sea salt over them pop them 'cut side down' on one of these View attachment 355888 for 5 minutes until they have those 'caramelised' lines then on a baking tray for 20 minutes in the oven (cut/caramelised side up)

Well, you were wondering what to do with a glut... Surely there's a limit to how many grilled courgettes one can physically eat.

as @Shadow can testify I always attract the railway platform drunk/stoned out of his box mentalist.

God. I remember watching this.

Grill them then preserve them in oil. They last for ages.

Good point.

As long as one doesn't let the damn things grow into giant marrows like my neighbour does...
