Sometimes I'm decadent. A couple of slices of toast with a generous slather of Cornish butter with sea salt crystals. Next comes a liberal amount of Marmite. Then it's the crunchy peanut butter. All this is topped off with sliced banana, with the slices being mushed down to make a uniform layer.
A perfectly balanced mix of carbs, protein, and fruit in one sumptuous treat 😎
I feel quiet sick after reading that xx(

You don’t HAVE to use Cornish butter Dave…

Moving stuff...what a proverbial pain :rolleyes: i wish i had my old Berlingo that would've done the job and i could be self sufficient...I will get there in the end i suppose even if i have to leave half of it behind.
Found out yesterday theres a washing machine/fridge/ cooker already there, so swings n roundabouts if i leave stuff behind :okay:

I find that toilet paper is a lot tastier with marmite than plain and do insist on unused paper.
Which brand of toilet paper though. And have you tried Zan Izal?

Interesting ride today. My buddy turned up on his summer bike resplendent with his new "I just want try it out" 32/32. Bastard! Equally paced all the way on the 8-10% and steeper climbs which meant his set up gained him three minutes on the longest climb. BUT on the second longest climb on a good road surface of 5/6% he left me for dead. I was dropped within 100 yards of starting and about 200 yards off at the top which was a mile.

I haven't fathomed this out. My winter bike held her own on the steep climbs and the longest, 2.9 miles, but on the easy one I was eating dust. Weird.

He was quicker, and more fleet of foot than thee. Simple.
