Morning all...grey and overcast but boy did it rain in the night! It absolutely lashed down, it was so loud that it woke me up, good thing as the bedroom windows were open. By the time we got them closed I had to get a towel to mop up the windowsill. It was a real downpour and continued for ages. More forecast for early afternoon, perhaps I will make inroads to that pile of ironing now it's a bit cooler.
5.9 after a rubbish night. Woken firstly by Libre at 00:58 with a 3.7 (tail end of dinner Apidra methinks) and
again at 4 am with the rain and then kept awake for ages by the noise.
Watched the first two episodes of Celebrity Masterchef last night. Howled with laughter at Kae's Isles Flottantes, which looked like the dog had been sick. However the stuffed and deep fried courgette flowers took me back to a wonderful memory of sitting in the garden of La Magnanerie hotel in Villeneuve les Avignon and having stuffed courgette flowers for the very first time. Absolute heaven! Why do we not see more of them on British menus?
@eggyg and the others who grow em.. now there's an idea for you!
@ColinUK so sorry to hear your appointment has been cancelled. I have this mental pic of a physio on the phone saying things like "raise the right femur and push your thumb deep into the sacroiliac nerve" whilst the patient is going "Huh?"
Oh and what a lovely interlude you had
@eggyg and
@rebrascora... it's lovely to meet in person isn't it?
