Change of plan. Pork chop, stuffing, roast potatoes and gravy.

You are allowed to have 'no sauce'......what is not allowed is the wrong sauce 😀

I'll have what ever sauce I want, right or wrong.

Whilst the garden waste bin was out the front and empty I took the chance and hacked back the too big Salvia's that are in the front garden, exposed a lovely Primula thats just coming into flower, it gets lovely bright yellow flowers on it during the spring.

I have just booked our trip to Ireland next August, taking the ferry from Holyhead to Dublin: 341 pounds with the car, return. Still cheaper than flying and hiring a car though.
I shall miss the Tour de Mon on Anglesey this year as it coincides with our trip. I shall take the bike with me though and hope to do some good rides there if I get the chance as we are meeting with my wife's sister who is coming from Australia. We are going to Donegal.
Too windy for a ride today, I would get blown off.

I'm alright in the Republic, but I'm supposed to inform Special Branch before heading to NI so they can risk assess it. Not than I'm planning to.

Years ago people with that attitude were burned at the stake.

Mix tomatoes sauce with brown sauce. Its nice with bacon and egg sarnies.

When I was a child the only sauce we ever had was mint sauce with lamb, never tasted HP or tomato until I was around 16
The other thing was coffee,never drank that again until I was 16

Can understand the coffee part. Only if really stuck will I touch it.

Quite a list of things I never had, until I had left home (20):
- brocolli
- pasta
- curry
- rice (except rice pudding)
- wine
- bolognaise
- coffee, except some stuff called “Camp”?
- noodles
- bean sprouts
- any kind of beans, except baked beans.
- muesli

I am sure I will think of more. My mother was a decent enough cook, but, innovation and adventure were not in her repertoire, bless her. We never went hungry

What a day. Heavy rain shower after shower. It seems the is for more of the same for the rest of March.

What’s the betting come June and July if we have a few days of eighty degrees plus temperatures we have a hose pipe ban,🤪🤪🤪
