Yeah. Having a solid goalie behind you must take some pressure off and Barkley's presence certainly gave them more confidence. I think that was his first game for them wasn't it?

No, I think Barkley played the other night as well...

I stand corrected - MOTD say it was his debut for Villa.

My dog's just had smoked mackerel and garden peas for his supper.🐶

Snetterton today for the British powerboating championship GTs - possibly the penultimate meeting of the year for me. I'd put a bike in the boot for a pootle around the lanes between the races foolishly believing the weather forecast for the rain clearing Thankfully I also packed a Kindle.

Tea, when I got home, was a bowl of porridge and a sausage roll.

I've been model making today. One highlight was that while using superglue with a plaster on my left thumb, I managed to superglue it to the model for several seconds.

I wouldn't mind, but the reason I had a plaster on my left thumb was because I managed to poke a hole in it with a sharp object an hour or so earlier.

All in all I think it's time to go to bed...

If the cut was big enough to warrant it, couldn't you have used the superglue to close it.

Sounds good! I'm thinking about having a bowl of muesli and a cheese butty for my supper.

Snett is about halfway between Jenkins Towers and Casa Reynard - given the weather I had, I'm not surprised you needed snorkel and flippers. It's been ghastly here all day. Sounds like the porridge and sausage roll was just the panacea to being cold and wet.

N.B. I *always* stash a book in my bag when I'm out for the day. Force of habit from my days commuting from Highbury to Uxbridge in the mid to late 90s. It got to the point where I could change trains at Kings Cross and Paddington without bothering to look up from my reading material.

Jack... fruit...

Seen it for sale, but never tried it.

Anyways, time to put Breville's finest on and ask if my bum looks big in a kettle...

Anyone for a cuppa and a croissant?

I've just had the same idea.

I've just had the same idea.

But does the kettle fit you?

 

[Reynard]

Anyways, I have a very fine and a croissant.

Given it's only a two pint kettle, I can just fit both feet in. Even then it requires some folding to be done.
