Is my memory playing up or hadn't they left out the numbering on the thirteenth floor on tower one?

Oh dear, the girls blotted their copybooks on Saturday. Ah well, if it's not going well, it's not going well. Poppy was in one of her tortie "grrrroooooowy" moods and Lexi spent the day having a spat with her ginger neighbour. Admittedly he did start it, but Lexi's language was umm, shall we say rather fruity.

At least the judges (who know the girls well) managed to see the funny side of it - we were all laughing so hard we were all in tears... That's cats for you - you just don't know what they're going to do next, especially girls as opinionated as Poppy and Lexi. Love my two to the moon and back though, they're both so precious to me.

But the girls did their bit for the show by sponsoring some BIS prizes and some specials. Hope the recipients enjoyed them.

Spent yesterday in a daze attempting to recover.

Just found banana in my rucksack, from last Wednesday, looking beyond black and very squidgy

You need one of these: http://www.lakeland.co.uk/10380/Banana-Guard-Holder-Case

I gave in and bought something similar a few weeks ago after a squashed banana too many.

Katsu curry tonight chez Casa Reynard. Chicken is in the oven, sauce is going on the hob, veggies are steaming and rice cooker is on the go.

And there's carrot cake for afters.

You must be joking! Anyway these were relatively cheap, most parts are interchangeable, apart from the middle one having a different size seat post 26 mm. I have also rediscovered that they are nice to ride and I like a challenge in getting things going again, also a bit of nostalgia.

Mr Asda once sent me Katsu curry as a substitute for something else. It was rather yummy. You make your own sauce, I expect.

I use a paste to make the sauce that I picked up in an oriental supermarket. Love Katsu curry.

Not the fact it was squashed, more like it was running out of the skin

Didn't get away as soon as I wanted, but managed to go straight out and most of my ride was in the light. 12.6 miles off road in an hour and 11 mins. Nice out if not very muddy.
