And if you can reuse that plane that’s a bonus.

What this country really needs is proportional representation.

Prodigy was very good indeed. Rammstein-esque even. It must have been awesome in the audience.

I also liked Alanis Morissette’s and Kneecap’s sets, but for me the highlight was seeing John Fogerty playing CCR songs. Took me back that did.

Who would’ve thought you enjoy french fries. But honestly, I didn’t even know pattered chips were a thing.

I’d still go with the earlier proposal: a lunch with Prince Andrew in Pizza Express in woking.

Great advice on dealing with pulling on lead. We got a rescue as second dog year and a half ago. He had clearly not been trained at all and was pulling on walks. My wife, who is the knowledgable dog trainer in our house, got it sorted in just few walks doing what you described.

Edit: typos

Last week was rather warm, but good. Now I’ve got covid. Boo.

What about you?

The world will improve significantly when the wealth hoarding boomers just finish dying off.

Sweet summer child, I’m afraid you have another thing coming.

 

Modern technology threw some curveballs this year. I hope everybody had a great time regardless.

if they can put it back together again

Why would anybody demolish a kitchen and then put it back together again? I’d want something new and better for the trouble!

Joking aside, I hope your project goes well.

 

Becky Guy, who lives on Whittlesey Road on the B1040 near Thorney, Peterborough, said over the past five years about 10 cars have crashed into her garden or her neighbour's.

 
 

The flatbread is from the shop, but everything else, including yogurt for the tzatziki, was home made from first principles.

My wife has made tzatziki for ages, but recently she started making it from home made yogurt. It’s been nothing short from a revelation.

 

Kebabs stayed on the skewers and none were lost to the fire gods. Result!

 

I bought an Ooni pizza oven late last year and only afterwards realised I don’t have a good place for it. A decking project ensued to create new BBQ Central.

After several weekends of woodworking the main structure is ready. Now I can focus on looking for outdoor kitchen units, planing layout and finding a worktop.

The lawnmower decided that Easter is a good time to stop working. I took it apart, cleaned fuel lines and the carburettor, put in a new spark plug, cleaned the air filter, and put it back together. It started with the first pull. Result.

 
 

I just spent three leisurely hours in the kitchen making a Sunday roast: roast chicken, roast potatoes, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower & gravy. I quite like relaxed cooking with Planet Rock on the background.

I found myself wondering if people still do this. Did you make a roasttoday, and if you did, what did you cook?
