It is only a very small pottery tea pot, perhaps more suitable for a very small plant like saxifrage.

This is just getting too alliterative for words...
I'd like to share a Recipe Idea - Poached Pears in Gluhwein.
Ingredients - Pears, Gluhwein.
Peel, core and halve one of the things, and simmer it in a pan of the other thing till it's cooked.
That's about half an hour or so.
Leave it all to cool off, then eat
Guess who found some Gluhwein in the cupboard earlier?

Just got in from a delightful ride. Across to St Ippolyts, up the local b@$t@rd steep hill (Gosmore to Preston) and round into Whitwell, where I stopped for Tea and flapjack.
Back through Nup End and Knebworth, and across Fairlands Valley to see the ducks.
First really steep hill I've taken the Brommie up.
I had need of the lowest (33") gear, but I wasn't reduced to walking.

Just put kettle on.
It is chucking it down with rain now. Lovely day earlier on though but I spend much of it indoors writing an essay.

Well I only intended to go over to ripon, masham, patley bridge etc then home, but I changed my mind when I got to ripon and ended up doing the borobridge - easingwold - york - selby - tadcaster route and managed to clock up another 100 miles to go with the one I did last month so I am a happy bunny it was windy at times & rained quite a few times but I still enjoyed it.
Funny thing is last time (last month) I did that route, except the other way round, I bumped into the guy who sold me my bike (he used to work at the specialized concept center in harrogate) and I couldnt believe it when this time I bumped into him again in the same road but at a totally different time of day very strange, so I told him to checkout the forum so hopefully he will and that will be another recruit.
Arch - I also found out that the cycle path coming from the easingwold end goes all the way into the center of york, I had no idea
most of the time I do it the other way round so I missed it and I tend to join it up the A19 near clifton moor.
So it was a nice day, oh yes the important bit I stopped off at beningbrough hall and had a lovely Ham and Cheese Toasty at the farm shop
there were a few other cyclists around including a couple on a very snazzy Thorn Tandem.

The one along the meadows? Yeah, that would be great, if it wasn't for the damn cattle grids. I can't ride over them on 2 wheels, I have a phobia. And I fear they'd shake the trike to bits.

How did you end up with a cattle grid phobia ? I must admit I dont much like walking over them but I dont mind cycling over them.

Went out for a bike ride round Rutland Water with Mum a few years back. Tackled several grids no problem, and then I went over one and hit a patch of gravel after it and slid over. Mum was behind, saw me fall, jammed her brakes on, and went over the bars onto the grid. Broke her wrist and cut her forehead on the metal bar. I get flashbacks to being on the ground, ok, but turning back and seeing her come off in slow motion.
There are a couple locally that I can cope with, because they are very secure and flat bars, but any I don't know, or any with loose bars, or those round bars (like the ones on the Clifton path), I can't do it. I have a horror of stopping half way across and putting a leg down between the bars...
I'm ok on the trike, because I can't fall over, but it's pretty rattly going over one on the trike.
I'm quite rubbish at those pedal height narrowing type gates, where you have to have one pedal up and go through at just the right spot - I imagine I'm going to clip a pedal and throw myself off.
I'm just a bundle of neuroses really.
But a well fed one. Just been to the Chinese restaurant and had one of those stockpots where you cook veg and fish and meat fresh in the pot over a gas burner at the table. Yum!
