Today's observations: discarded litter included one of those things that go on top of a frying pan to stop spatter, which, I must admit, is a first.
Followed by an ex ferret, a very flat toad, a red kite, and two or possibly three buzzards.
The detritus along the road is continuing to build up and once my back & knees stop complaining I'll collect some more crap for the mighty bonfire.
Lunch: a tin of Fray Bentos chicken balls in chili sauce rounded off with a cheese topped baton and a round of Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed bread.
Now getting outside 1.05 pints of good Glengettie tea.
I forgot to mention the bunch of MAMILs spotted on the way down town.
Since “Hey Nick” isn’t working this morning, I’ve opened the curtains and can confirm clear blue skies, sun shining in, and a hard frost on the roof of The Brick.

This morning I was at coffee machine. We have white sugar in white packet, brown sugar in brown packet and saccarine in yellow packet.
She was tipping brown packet into her coffee and asked me if there was any brown sugar. I thought it was a trick question, but pointed to brown packet stash.
She said "Oh. The packet is not brown enough!". Then started muttering about not being brown enough.
When I looked, her skin colour was brown.
Anyway it was nice talking to her. She was really pretty. But I managed to keep my tongue off the floor.
we know a song about that
we look forward to meeting the future ex Mrs BP!
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
One of the morning tasks was to start making chicken and barley soup with the remains of the Big Chicken. It’s on now, but I’ve put the slow cooker on its High setting to make up some time. However, as this initial stage is the one that extracts the goodness from the bones and such, I’m now thinking maybe it’s better on Low… might give it an hour or two on High then turn it down. Or maybe turn it down now and turn it up later. Or maybe just turn it down and do it on Low like I normally do
