Just in the machine and doesn't take long to dry.

So, you have to wash the duvet every week ??

We are having hot spicy chicken pieces with BBQ beans and fries today

I had cheese and tomato on toast for brekkie......no idea what to have later.

I’m obviously not as fussy or clean as you as I go for around a month.

Little wander done before lunch which will be soup with a slice of bread. Still cold out but dry.

I have my duvet cover over the table.

I’m sure I could make a joke about that but will resist.

TBF you do have a shower most mornings**.....followed by a soak in the bath.
** if it rains while on your walk.

I think pizza and chips is calling. I enjoy those small Chicago Town ones and they are easy to heat in the airfryer together with a few chips.

Talking of showers, the one over the bath in our hotel had a " rainfall " shower head instead of a conventional one, and one of those pull up plungers to divert the water from shower to tap. I thought I'd outwitted it by running the water through the bath taps until I had the perfect temperature, then pulling the plunger to divert it to the shower head. I forgot about the cold water that was already in the shower pipe 😮

Our air fryer has a sticky up bit in the centre to take the paddle that slowly rotates and tumbles the chips. That's why whenever I put a pizza in our air fryer it ends up with a hole in the middle.

I had one of those but replaced it with 'true' air frier. It was good for chips but not for much else eg it would smash fish fingers to bits. This air frier has 2 decent size drawers, just one will take a small pizza AND chips......15 minutes and they are done.

@Tenkaykev ....been racking my brain for the make.
TEFAL ACTIFRY was the one.

If an old guy with piercing eyes and a grey beard accosts you to tell you about his seafaring days, it could be quite a long lunchtime.

Donegal Danny only called for a pint.
Never fish n'chips.
