Tonight's spot for dinner. Hot flask with pesto pasta and olives.

Just a :cuppa: and a sausage (bratwurst) sandwich for me this evening.

On a more sober note, Salman Rushdie got stabbed in the neck while giving a lecture in New York State. Like an author's writing or loathe it, there's no reason for that. I know he's controversial, but books that explore topics that people find uncomfortable are a good way of broadening the mind.

Lady Chattersley's lover caused a scandal back in the day, but to modern readers, it's much ado about nothing...

Bratwurst for me too tonight, in a potato salad.

That Rushdie fatwa goes back so far, it must have been the early 90s. :sad: It's ages since I read a book but I might read Midnight's Children for the 3rd time.

Work done and dusted for the week. Must get some food. This working evening thing has completely messed up my whole routine.

Corsa driver seems to have started the night shift. Doesn't he get bored driving around in circles and doesn't he realise nobody else wants to hear his pathetic little engine.

It's the BTCC at Snetterton this weekend. This put a stop to my Friday long bike ride and pub lunch as it's a bit difficult trying to make food for the weekend after a few pints of good beer.

Instead I went out to do one of my regular loops this afternoon, but realised I'd forgotten the drinks bottle after a few miles and returned home to get it. To show how warm this afternoon was, I drunk the contents in just 25 miles. A very Betty Swollocks day.
