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?

The place was heaving! Big signs saying “ No Adults on equipment “ but there were a few who were carrying smaller children. On the way home we detoured through a small park and I noticed the holly is bearing loads of berries already, we picked a few freshly fallen sweet chestnut pods and there was a huge Bracket Fungus on the side of a tree, granddaughter was fascinated.

I've got a small leg of lamb in the oven, soon to joined by potatoes, and then I'm going to put a pan of mixed veg on the stove. We'll wash it down with a couple of glasses of shloer.

All these home cooked meals sound lovely, but lazy me will be having a popty ping meal as usual. I think tonight is chicken breast with paprika potato.

Had a visit from three of the daughters today. When they are here together, there is always friendly(?) rivalry etc

Daughters No 1 and 3 enjoy cooking, Daughter No 2 does not.

There was some discussion about 1 & 3's latest efforts. No 2 joined in with a plaintive "I can cook too". The retort from 1 & 3 was "cooking, does not mean removing the packaging and placing the meal in the microwave" ..... ouch!

Everyone was smiling when they left

Left hand side, near the top. Stain under what I assume is your thumb.

Seems to be Strava’s turn to be broken now. Too many Sunday rides getting uploaded at once? Certainly not mine.

The two segments on/in Area 51 weren't showing on Friday. Maybe that's where it started?
