Pretty calm with weak sun here in Northumberland this morning. I'm just off to the shops for a couple of essentials (loo roll, cat food and milk) and then off up to the allotment to make a start on potting up some onion sets in modules as the ground is still too cold and wet....and I ain't worked out where the onion bed is going to be yet!

Have a good day everyone

Jarred the marmalade, 29 orange, 10 lemons and 1 bag of sugar, might make more but cannot see us eating all of this. More than 3kg´s of jam, will give my friends some as they gave me the oranges



I must say it was very nice

We (youngest son is the royal we on this occasion) have decided that the stay put has got to be replaced this year. Not sure with what yet.

Now I am cooking tea and then going to relax and try and finish my book tonight.

Its allowed Trip. Life is not just about work, you also need to have some enjoyment as well.
Anyway, I am sure you will catch up.

Don't feel sorry for Trip, Bramble Serve him right, that's what I say!!
Did you enjoy it while you were sober, Trip? That's the main thing

PS, Any wine left?

Evening it ended up raining all day here not that it mattered we spent the afternoon at daughters house nattering and drinking tea, plus laughing at what their house rabbit gets up to.

Your're right V.C. I was just caught at a weak moment there.
Trip, you need to get your act together, and no more slacking.
Time is passing and theres plenty to be done.

You're too nice, bramble

Went out to do some shopping grocery wise, and my son turned up to install the new washing machine while I was out. I got back to a very grumpy son as his fiance had somehow managed to trap his hand in the fridge door (don't ask). I had to put up with about of an hour of how I get everything wrong before he calmed down. After this we had a very pleasant drink in the local before they both went off to a friends for lunch.

I then went hunting for food and had a very nice but overdone steak in a local pub.

Actually I'm adding to my last post. I need juniper berries for a recipe I'm cooking. I did have them but had to chuck them when the roof of my old kitchen collapsed. I went into my local T@sc0 and couldn't find them. After searching for some time I ended up at the service desk. One person looked on their computer and confirmed that they'd never stocked them but the giggle was the one that went and asked the people on the fruit and veg dept. Her face was a picture when I explained that were classed as a spice/herb.

What I found interesting is that they have harissa paste which as a cook I have never heard of until recently but no juniper berries which have been popular in cooking for several decades.
