Oops, I’ve missed my turn, rubber, whatever. One wozz distracted by an impromptu curry night, hosted by friends. We are spilt down the middle by the B…t thingy, but managed a good time, with no rancour and finished off our curries with…cheese and crackers. I know - I couldn’t believe it. But, I ate it anyway. Mañana for the notional diet thing.

Funnily enough, I was just polishing off a slice of Christmas cake as I read that! What with missing Christmas, New Year and most of January, it didn’t get cut until well into February and, if I say so myself, has matured rather well. I’ll be factoring that into the timing for making this year’s.

Oh, that’s not a bad thing, not even slightly. Because in the process we can do things like re-running the flue through the wall rather than along the machine room, cutting out the machine room heating because we never need it what with all the machines, etc.
