Lets hope so!
The week started quite well, i got a full chapter of the new Gaby book written (available now for Patreons https://www.patreon.com/posts/book-28-part-25-90653204). So thats a positive right?
Tuesday was a bit grey and foggy to start, i only went out to Clevedon then back past the airport - a short ride of 85 kilometres, i really just didn't feel like doing any more. I was also aching a bit when i got back, residual hurts from Saturday i guess. On the plus side, my new bank card arrived so last night i spent time updating all my accounts - at least i can go food shopping now!
Today - well it should have been more writing but i needed to get some food shopping so i ended up hiking out to Kingswood where i foumd everything except parmesan - is there a shortage? Anyhoo, it was well into the afternoon when i got back, rather than try writing i instead set about this evenings dinner, old school mince and onions with carrot and swede mash (using home grown swedes and some micro carrots!). Simple enough and very much old skool but tasty and filling.
So there we are, no new disasters so maybe i've turned the corner of Lucky Street?
I'll be back at the weekend but for now, thank you for reading.
Wiedersehn,

or...? A change in the Weather?
It looks like the good weather that we have enjoyed in the south of the UK in recent weeks is about to come to an end.
Rain, the possibility of frosts almost anywhere and winds from the NW over the weekend.
I think that getting the winter gear ready is a good idea. I put the linings back in my motorcycle jacket and trousers today.
I wrapped up most of the jobs on my list for the garden today. All that remains is to sieve about 300kg of 1 yr old compost ready for spring planting.
Take care on the roads.

"The World" & the USA are so messed up, that when I recently saw "vacancies" on my store shelves (Aldi's USA), my first thought was something 'evil' was going on. (For me, it's fire-roasted tomatoes.)
But the check-out (till?) people tell me that it's that the new distribution software in the warehouse is 'going badly' ...
Kinda sad isn't it, that my first thought on seeing a coupla bare spots on store shelves, was that something Big & Bad & Evil was going on?
Good news is, other stores have what I want ...
Bad news is, they're at about twice Aldi's price ...

Happy cooking! Happy eating!
Parmesan is expensive
but there are often very similar hard cheeses from Italy available at half the price.
There is a cheese producer about 20 miles from where I live (100% organic milk) that makes some seriously good Cheddar and... a hard cheese made just like Parmesan. I'll be calling in at their shop on Friday when I go that way (I'm getting some Bio-Char and a couple of cases of Beer from a brewery just down the road).
