Tonight's tea has been the rest of the other day's slow-cooked pot roast. The remaining wine-based stock, which I left in a jug in the fridge, had formed a layer of solid fat about a centimetre thick on top.

Tonight's film was Jurassic Park III (2001), in which there's more of the same; so lacking is it in anything to distinguish it from its predecessors, in fact, that they couldn't even think of anything to add to the title other than "III". But it's OK for what it is, and at least it isn't too long
