Do tell.

A gentleman never tells.

I have been googling Welsh (she lives within walking distance, but hails from Carmarthen) and buying flowers and cheese, though.

Good work, glad you are happy.

Work or CC?

Do you need a hug and a large gin?

Work. It never ceases to amaze me how some grown men can behave so childishly.

I accept your hug thank you but no gin

Everybody needs a hug and a large Gin.

The outboard motor refused to start. I assure you, no mackerel were killed.

The wild salmon was lovely. The flesh was firmer, there was less fat between the flakes and the flavour was different too.

Lexi enjoyed some as well. She won't touch the farmed stuff.

Yeah... Apart from Guy Martin biting the dust. Hope he's not too banged up for riding later in the week.

Hope so too, though he seemed genuinely shaken in the interview.

It sounds scarily like John McGuiness' crash, he closed the throttle but the bike didn't respond (No engine braking) so possibly the 'fix' of changing the ECU to the 'superbike' spec hasn't cured the fault.

Well, coming down a hill facing a stone wall with nothing but a bunch of neutrals kind of does that to one... They did interview him and the gaffer on tonight's show - looks like they'll be rebuilding John's bike for Friday.

Mind, Honda's having a pants TT overall... Bruce Anstey isn't having much luck either with the MotoGP look-alikey bike...

Looks grim.

Been making my preserved garlic today. Peeled it all this morning, pickled and drained it after lunch, and now it's cold I can dry it and pack it into jars with oil and herbs. That little lot will last me a year, even allowing for the couple of jars I have promised to others.

Defrosted a pack of wild pacific salmon that I picked up on a 70% markdown in Tesco the other week to have for supper tonight alongside jersey royals and spinach. Will be interesting to see how the taste compares to the more usual farmed salmon. There also might be a chocolate fondant for pudding as well...

Wild salmon tastes like farm salmon, utterly hideous. Except when Mrs. GA makes salmon dip, then its' okay. I still prefer the cod and the halibut.

Are you sure this is the right thyme or plaice for this? Wait till you try my culinary creations (I make a really mean gravadlax - it's r-eel-y brill-iant), and I'll have you dancing to my tuna.
