Bugger.

My cap on my front tooth has just fallen out.:biggrin: All I ate was a banannaannnaaa.:smile:

Just called the dentist. £100.:biggrin:

Bum.

I don't think a dentist should be anywhere near your bum, unless they have a very unorthodox working access method - seek a second opinion.:biggrin:

Bad luck though. Seems unfair, when you were only really eating babyfood...

Can you cope with a cup of tea?

Or, enjoy the wild meadow look?

My Mum goes to all sorts of lengths to get rid of the moss in her lawn. It's a losing battle, and if it were me, I'd keep the moss - at least it's green, and from a distance, you can't tell.

Nice and soft to fall on when, one of the kids rams you in the back of the knees with his ride on tractor. Im off to put the kettle on.:biggrin:

I'll have a cuppa if there's one going. I've booked to have a new carpet fitted in my spare bedroom tomorrow so have to get it completely emptied today. I really must get the rest of my packing done as well. Best get the car loaded up and ship another load over to my parents.

I just had a cup of PGs finest, thanks.

I made it to go with my first lunch, which I had at 11.40 - a corned beef sandwich. By 12 I needed my second lunch, so went out to fetch a cheese roll for me, a chicken tikka salad (no tomato!) roll for the boss, and two bits of carrot cake.

I'm finding that on office days, I need my lunch earlier and earlier - I guess it's the extra miles I'm gradually adding to the ride, and my attempts to up the pace a bit. On non-office days, I have to wait until we break for lunch anyway.

I've managed to make it 10 miles a day so far this week, need to do 5 home to do it today, and it's 3 normally, so only a little diversion needed. Might explore the route over the Clifton Backies.

Eat more porridge in the morning, Arch.

I'm a bit of a porridge convert: after field projects, our foreign collaborators all disappear back of to Germany, France or wherever leaving loads of food behind at the rented house. I have to clear up after them. They always buy tons of porridge and then don't eat it.

So this month, I are been mostly eating.... porridge.

Yeah, I should do porridge. I've been having toast recently.

Mum and I stayed at a B and B in Ullapool once, and at breakfast the German couple at the next table asked us to explain the menu.

"Vat iz 'porridge'?"

"Um, well, it's a sort of hot paste, of boiled oats...."

"Ah. <pause> Und, vat iz 'kipper'?"

"Er, it's a sort of fish, smoked, lots of bones...."

They went for the Full Scottish (including, once we'd explained it, black pudding). I fear we let the Scottish Food Heritage Board (if such a thing existed) down a bit...
