Katy puts me in mind of this;

Missouri Kansas and Texas railroad, or just "The Katy" for short

Best put your cider in with the chops.

I brown the chops in a pan, take them out and sweat a shallot in the juices. Return the chops to the pan with some cider, season then cover and simmer for 10 mins. Take out the chops to rest, add a splash of double cream and simmer to reduce. Served with mash and veg, yum.

The best bit is the chef gets to polish off the spare cider.

Kind of like Church, then.(Old Swillin' Willie((myself)) always polishes off the wine at the end of the Eucharist).

Day 1 over, was uneventful bar the homeward journey.
Decided to go the motorway route as even though it's a mile or so longer the extra speed can make the overall time quicker, well that was before somebody decided that tonight was the night they were going to threaten to jump from one of the motorway bridges.

Thankfully I only got delayed by 10 minutes or so, others are still there over an hour later, many missing their flights from the nearby airport.

I am watching my look-a-like Jason, how he hasn't won any oscars yet is a mystery to me, must be political

I went with the healthy option of grilled chops seasoned with s and p, and thyme.

I saw some friends and we had lasagne. Their eight year old son invited back tomorrow. Would be rude to refuse.

If your lungs were spread out over the average size tennis court, you'd be dead!

Either that or in a lot of pain!

The pub would get my vote

Pubs are nasty, smelly, noisy places.

Kind of like Church, then.(Old Swillin' Willie((myself)) always polishes off the wine at the end of the Eucharist).

In some churches you probably wouldn't as it's non alcoholic, or sometimes Ribena

The sky has gone a funny colour of red and green again.

I appear to have just forgotten to bunny hop a kerb. I wish they would stop digging up my short cut back home. My front tyre was left quite deflated by the incident and I also managed to remove some skin off my shins.

My route home is imminent. I hope it's as I expect. And that my front light lasts and that I have no punctures.
