Went for big bike ride earlier... 40 miles dreaming of a full English when i returned but... there is no black pudding in Lancaster today

substituted black pudding for grilled halumi, and much to my surprise it worked... it worked with the runny poached eggs, the smoked bacon, the peppered 'shrooms and the grainy mustard. now all i need to do is try halumi and black pudding.

I have a recipe for halumi and black pudding:

1. Heat a small frying pan with a little oil.
2. Fry the black pudding turning occasionally until it is crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle.
3. Get the halumi, put it back in the fridge and forget about it.
4. Have a word with yourself then fry an egg.

Neighbours garden has exploded with noisy shrieks, shouting, boing boing noises, laughter and more of each of the above. It'll probably last an hour
Three neighbours have them (trampolines)...they should be burned . When this lot stop, another will probably start.

I have a recipe for halumi and black pudding:

1. Heat a small frying pan.
2. Fry the sliced halloumi turning occasionally until it is crispy on the outside and warm, salty and squeakily delicious in the middle.
3. Get the black pudding, put it back in the fridge and forget about it.

FTFY

The little boy next door has one. It doesn't make booiiiinnngg noises. He is okay on the trampoline on his own. It's when his friends visit that the shrieks start. I just hope none of them land upside down in my compost heap.

Look @potsy a healthy kebab.

I brought some souvlaki seasoning back from Greece, so I had to try it out.

Doesn't look like any kebab I've ever had

It's 27 degrees in my living room this evening. What a lovely, comfortable temperature in tee-shirt and shorts with a small beer!

A lot of supermarkets have special recycling bins for plastic bags, better than putting them in the general rubbish bin.

Yeah, my local Waitrose has one. I have a bag hanging in my kitchen specifically for plastic bag recycling. When it's full, I toddle off to Waitrose.

Sounds like a beastie we have in the States called a chigger. You might try a little tea tree oil, applied topically.l

Madam Lexi Plexi is allergic to those. Her spot on is supposed to keep this under control, but if there are a lot of them about, I end up with a miserable, itchy little cat...

Madam Lexi Plexi is .......a miserable, itchy little cat...

Treat yourself to a dog. These little annoyances will go away.

Treat yourself to a dog. These little annoyances will go away.

I adore dogs, especially staffies, but sadly my lifestyle means I can't have one. So I resort to spoiling my friends' dogs instead.

Poppy and Lexi, on the other hand, are non-negotiable. They're *family*

We set off early this morning to do a car boot sale.
I know that the main idea of doing one is to declutter but I think I may have gone a stage further and un- decluttered ! I couldn't resist buying a bargain .

Have you ever collected shells ?

I bought a 75 mm one .

You mean the brass shell casings? Yes, I have a few of those knocking about

 

[Reynard]

She SO isn't. Life isn't fair....

Thanks hun

Relaxing after a hard afternoon's yellow stickering in Tesco. Fridge is now chock full of delectable comestibles - was too tired to do the stuff for the freezer today, so will do that in the morning.

Now sitting down to a well-earnt and a doughnut. (They were marked down to 6p for a bag of five, couldn't resist!)
