Bah! Got down to -2 in the van last night.

Our vans never got really cold at night as we were on hookup in winter. We spent most of January then February and March in our van one winter at Aberdeen when our eldest son was in hospital. Even our last van which came from Italy with Italian insulation never got really cold.

Be happy. Confusion by the management about what was the off and what was the thermostat.
Next project look for an LPG station. Usually Morissons (sp?)

Lovely luncheon of the last of the bakery bread and the last of the crab meat (ok, not quite, there's a dollop saved for Madam Lexi*), plus a nibble of some Conte cheese, an apple, a banana and half an avocado. Oh, and two of course.

Hauled logs and coal, and now settled in for the afternoon.

Roast pork here tonight as well. I've got a joint just shy of 2kg that I bought for £4.62 on YS last Sunday. That'll do us nicely for a while, including some pork & mustard sandwiches for a few lunches.

Temp down to minus 2C now so it is going to be cold tonight.
Got some gardening tidying done but still frost in my back garden tho' not in front of the house.
There is a lot of shade from bushes which were tiny things when first planted but seem to have got out of control since I am not able to do much gardening nowadays and in any case have lost interest.
The garden is getting to be bit of a burden but I doubt I could move away to somewhere with no garden.

Time to do some girly / blue petery-y kind of things with brown paper and curly ribbon.

Luvly!
The unfortunate exit by England last night resulted in 'one too many' so cooking ain't the easiest today ... still, kitchen smells nice
What you doing with it?

Mmmm, one the advantages of being teetotal!

Roasties, roasted cauliflower, green beans and apple sauce made with the last of the bramleys from the garden and some new rock pippins from the community orchard.

Just about to put the oven on preheat. Will do the joint in a roasting bag because a) I don't want crackling* and b) it's a weird shape and don't want the meat to dry out.

* I want to use the skin and fat to make szmalec (Polish pork dripping) along with the skin and fat left over from the bacon knuckle. It's flavoured with onion, garlic, oregano and plenty of salt & pepper. Makes the best fried bread ever.

I went out to the garage because I thought we were a box of baubles short. Turned out Hebe Jr had “put all the boring ones on the back of the tree”.

Will the stickers hold the shelving though?
