What did you do to the Viva? 🤔

View attachment 764817

Technically the viva was done to the student. A ride in an old Viva would have been more preferable; my parents had a 1966 model when I was about four.

Fabby supper of dhal soup, then ox heart casserole, herby dumplings, mash, roasted butternut squash and coleslaw.

If you are ever tempted to click on the adverts to order them, here's a tip:

Imagine what beans taste like if they are half rotted with bacteria.

Got that idea in your head? Good. Now you don't need to order them.

Sounds like it's in the same league as the Scandinavian fermented herring stuff...

Whilst taking the dogs for walkies around Moulton this afternoon there was a Spitfire flying overhead 🛬

A couple of Chinooks round here this afternoon, a C-130 Hercules on approach to Mildenhall from the train this morning and a couple of Stratotankers doing loops around Mildenhall while on the train to and waiting at Ely station yesterday.

Time to bank the fire for the night and trot off to bed.

Have you ever tried the sweets, Salmiakki is salted* Liquorice. I had a Finnish girlfriend and once when her sister came over to visit Marika bought several bags over with her and Sari gave me one to try, Absolutely revolting and lasted about 10 seconds before I spat it out to the sounds of the 3 Sisters cackling with glee, luckily the 3rd sister Taria had laid on a bottle of Vodka as it was the first time in 18 months all 3 had been together and I had a glass of that to hand to get rid of the taste.

* The Salt used is Ammonium Chloride/Sal Ammoniac

Time to shake a leg and get on with the day.
White/grey clouds and chilly but dry

Morning.
It was sunny earlier but it has now gone a bit cloudy. It's looking greyish.

 

[Windle]

Aaaand as if by magic, it's winter again. 0 degrees C this morning and snow showers on the way to work!

 

[Jenkins]

Good morning from a mostly cloudy and chilly Suffolk. Coffee has just been had.
After I've done a bit of shopping, today will be a domestics day while I wait for the call from the garage about the pass/fail result of the car's MOT.

Hail in Hamtun... Not a lot, but ❄️
