OAB was one of the skills tests in a recent series of professional Masterchef: some absolute horrors ensued. I was tsssking away like anything.

I doubt that would be adequate to cope with drinking tea/beer/wine/gin/whatever all day, but you are thinking along the right lines there Gus. There are some things other people just can’t do for you, no matter how hard you try to persuade them.

Think I’m going to enjoy dinner tonight. Leg of lamb, potatoes (roast + boiled in skins), sparrergrass, carrots…

…and just to wash it down:

(It was supposed to be for Christmas dinner in 2018 - I bought it the day before I went into hospital and have been looking for an excuse to broach it ever since)

Could be…

Made a pig’s ear of the cake, so needed cheering up. (Being presented with a bottle of Bombay Sapphire definitely helped 🙂 )

joe dere, I have a sneaking feeling that your ‘🐖’s 👂’ is probably most people’s idea of a pretty good 🎂. Not that Bombay Sapphire ever comes amiss.

Many happy returns to the birthdayee. Cheers! Up!
