I've got an ace recipe for pickled courgettes with garlic and dill. Or you can slice and substitute for cucumber in bread-and-butter pickles.

Right, that's the laundry done, mum's prescription dropped off, the Cats Protection website updated, a snack scoffed (yoghurt and some rice cakes) and now I'm off to Tesco.

This was a view from where we were staying Sunday morning.

It isn't half windy out!

I noticed that. Good conditions for practising riding a motorbike in.

It didn't seem to be bothered by the crosswinds but wouldn't go faster than 50 riding directly into the 40mph breeze.

Noooo, what I do is cut them in half lengthwise then drizzle them in olive oil, grind a little black pepper and sea salt over them pop them 'cut side down' on one of these for 5 minutes until they have those 'caramelised' lines then on a baking tray for 20 minutes in the oven (cut/caramelised side up)

The dark green bottle contains white wine. Room temperature white wine.

Damn those Italians.

I had to stand all the way to Lancaster. Luckily my legs had pretty much recovered from my 130 odd miles round the Peak District on Sunday

Chapeau MG, excellent you deserve a pint.

It was very windy out.... blown sideways a few times, though it got better as I headed into central Bristol and then worse again as I headed out again! A black bin going flying as I passed made me jump!
