Well, my daughter and her mother have managed to engineer a reunion after 6 months of lockdown lockout so the g-kids finally got to see their nan again. There's two goods. I caramelised my parsnips and completely forgot about the prepared red cabbage in the freezer. There's 2 catering bads.

Dropped some presents off at my son, DIL and grandkids just as the light was beginning to fall this afternoon, DIL, stood outside her house, looked up and said...
'What the heck is that !!!!!'
As I looked up, I caught the last second of a meteor breaking up, streaking across the sky above us, white streak with a tiny of green in colour.
It was low, seemingly twice the height of the trees.
'What a sight on Christmas Day ' she said. She had seen maybe 2 or 3 seconds of it.

It's a bit difficult to explain why it should be the case but I can confirm that eating a huge Christmas dinner and half your own bodyweight in chocolate doesn't do much to help one's performance on the bike.

Time for beer now.

No bike, today, just a 2 mile walk to stretch my legs a bit. Quite nippy out!

Given the rain we had Weds I went for a short ride yesterday to see how the Nene was faring. The Nene was fairly bowling through, some fields flooded, one pathway I would have used too deep to get through, but all in all, not too bad.
As I drove past there this afternoon, fields substantially flooded, Nene has burst its banks and now is at one with the nearby rowing lakes...lots of water everywhere..

Our little kitten has gone into his box for a nap. I've given him the nickname Billy White socks .
Just to make me a liar he has just popped his head out .

Right royally stuffed...

Did turkey breast stuffed with sage & onion sausagemeat and then wrapped in bacon, beef dripping roasties, steamed green beans, red cabbage with apple, cider, dried fruits and spices, stuffing balls, chunky pigs in blankets and turkey & bacon gravy.

And I may have shovelled in a helping of Christmas pudding and custard for afters.

 

[12boy]

Sounds pretty good....any left for me?

 

[Reynard]

Yeap, plenty left to share.

Two helpings of Christmas dinner round mum's this afternoon - both with more food on them than I'd normally have for my evening meal! I'm still absolutely stuffed and yet still had room for a couple of the home made sausage rolls that she insisted I take home with me.

There's no chance of me being up & about early on Saturday.
