You should try it. It's lovely. Not the gravy, the beetroot

Heathen!

 

[classic33]

Minced beef
onions
mushrooms
peas
small potatoes I used tinned as it was easier
garam masala
fenugreek
cayenne pepper
salt
black pepper
2 beef cubes
The other week I had some mince in the freezer, but I wanted a curry, OK curried mince, but I was also getting fed up with rice.
Why not put pastry to it........... sorted
I used a lot of onions mushrooms peas and small potatoes about half and half with the minced beef
I have some large ramekin bowels so filled them up and cut out a top for them, served up with mango chutney and naan bread

Do we really need to know that?

Just had a flight going in to Hurn airport. It sounded quite loud and appeared to be labouring a bit, so I fired up my “ Flightradar24 “ App. It informs me that it was an Airbus A340 Freight, en route from Cardiff to Bournemouth. Possibly carrying a couple of pairs of Welshies bloomers which would explain the strain on the engines.

That doesn't sound quite as painful.

Think I will give that a miss but thanks anyway

We will get a major snowstorm Tuesday and Wednesday. Lots of trees haven't lost their leaves yet so the problem is broken branches from heavy wet snow. The preceding rain and then snow should help trees, shrubs etc survive the cold and dry winter months.
Mrs 12 has perked up a lot thanks to the oxygen and her echocardiogram came out well so the doc will be scheduling a different new chemo. Although the visit from her bro and his wife was great, it was tiring for us all.
Be safe and well. Could not get Google to reveal what gullivers are other than Swift's story.

A memory.
In the 90s, in France, we were invited to someones house for a meal. They served us fish with raspberries.

One explanation
"The loose portion of skin which hangs from the between the base of the chin and the top of the neck. A gulliver usually occurs in elderly people,"

They do pleasure rides in them. Quite popular, Twin seaters and you get to " Fly a Spitfire " ( you take temporary control for a short while )

Good morning folks,
Off to “ Bouncy Castle World “ at the local Sports Centre this morning 😁
This will be followed by brunch at a local Italian café, and then a cake and bread baking session with our granddaughter. Looks like being a full day.
Stay safe folks 👍☀

I was beginning to wonder if Bouncy Castle World did special pensioners rates. After reading further I realised the visit was for your grand daughter.Or was it?
