Salmon, rice and steamed vegetables tonight. And apple crumble.

I have that side of salmon I bought on Saturday that is about to come out of quarantine. I will cure the tail end of the fillet tomorrow (gavalax, here I come!!!) and will cook the top end in a parcel.

I’ll send my address

Do you supply veggies to Riverford?

Nope - i run my own veg box scheme.



Which, according to my esteemed customers, who have compared, is a cut above, and better value too

Supper was lovely.

I ditched the rice in the end - it was one of those microwaveable pouches which I'd bought on sticker for 6p and which had migrated to the back of the cupboard. It didn't pass the sniff / taste test when I unsealed the pack, so I made garlic and black pepper bulghur wheat instead.

Oh, and Poppy and Lexi had some salmon too. The side weighed 1.2 kg - not bad for a smidgin over £4. Superb piece of fish.

Lovely nice clear night. I really enjoyed tonight's ride in the darkness.

Decent dynamo lighting makes night-riding a pleasure

First test of the wood stove...

Why'd you put your torch inside to test it.

Why'd you put your torch inside to test it.

Because he needed to light it!

Here's my Strava of pedalling around ~ Donington ~

I doubt they do it anymore, but you could turn up on, I think, a Wednesday evening, pay £1 and ride around the circuit until you got fed up, or when they closed!
It added to the racetracks I've done. Silverstone, Santa Pod and the Northampton International Raceway (banger & hot rods)..

Most of the circuits have had something similar and Brands Hatch even had a 24hr event once. I've never had a go - with one exception - because of the distance from me and the h****t requirement. The only exception was when Silverstone re-opened with the first major event on the current layout and they allowed free access to cyclists & walkers on the Friday night. Three laps on a Dahon folder wearing walking boots, multiple layers of warm clothing and being drafted by some of the F3 drivers on road bikes!
