What Joe and us in the hovel need is an isthmus to the mainland

Been arting and shopping and nursing our mate who has a nasty cold and as she is an older lady she needs a bit of care

I know she won’t ask so I like to let her know I will be calling her and checking she is eating and taking care of herself

Indeed.

I have lit the Candles

It was so lovely to hear her sound ‘normal’ after such a long discussion with the Dr about her DNR & end of life care.

Great news about Posh

We were at the official launch of our club’s rally so hobnobbing with the great and good and the Mayor and various championship registrars

We paid polite attention to the speeches then fled to the nice Chinese in the County town

I forced myself to have chicken satay and king po chicken with noodles
It was delicious

Cool & grey here too. According to the allergy chart, dust levels are extremely high too.

They must have measured those at Carinthia Towers

No time for housew#rk, here, as I’m packing to go to Ullapool. A pasta salad must be made, too, as yer bees are too mean (with time) to stop at an eatery on the way. It’s 300 miles away and we aim to be there just after 6pm, tomorrow. So - pasta salad eaten with wooden forks in the Fiesta will see us through. For historical reasons this must happen in Aviemore. Tonight’s dinner will be spaghetti al tonno, garlic bread and salad.

Pasta salad had to be tackled, first. Given that Mr Bee doesn’t care for creamy dressings, I find this to be ridiculously difficult (but this is yer bee who’d rather cook a dinner than prepare a round of sandwiches). The ingredients:
Fusilli
Cherry toms
Spring onions
Green olives
Red pepper
Cucumber
Toasted pine nuts
Cubes of Comté
Grated Grana Padano
Dressing of basil-infused olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, Dijon, honey (teeny), pepper - are you feeling the desperation?
Meh. It’ll have to do.
Now, to pack clothes. Oh - I’ll be taking you all with me, of course!

Dam’ bluddy right. But you might want to sling in a bit more ComtĂ© [cheesy grinnity]

The dressing sounds spot-on, btw
