Hmm... I ought to have something to eat, I guess.

So far today I've had a yoghurt, half a small glass of orange juice and a dark chocolate two-finger kit kat.

[WTFH]

Guineafowl have gone from being very noisy to totally quiet.
This means one of three things:
1. They've found a source of food and contentment.
2. They've flown so far away I can't hear them
3. Something has managed to eat them before I did.

Time for a quick recce...

Brillo! I told you to be subtle!

Just hung the whiteboard on the far wall that I've been meaning to purchase for 6 months.

Now the todo list can nag me everytime I go and get a drink...

One guinea in the neighbour's veg garden, the other in with our chickens again.
Chickens poo-picked, 5 more eggs collected, sourdough starter fed earlier and now bubblier than a bubbly thing.

In other news, one of my local hostelries set up a WhatsApp group for a few regulars (we do quizzes, etc on it). Last night they mentioned selling off some of their wine at a good deal. A few of the locals were ordering 1 or 2 bottles here and there.
I put an order in for "7 rose and 4 red". They know me well enough. 42 bottles of rose and 24 of red are on their way (along with some less essential things like bread and cheese)

Egg fried rice for lunch, off to Tesco soon to do a Click and Collect run. Let's see how much stuff wasn't available this time - 10 days ago about half of the list couldn't be had due to panic buying.

I ordered a whiteboard last week. I think Amazon are finally thinking about delivering it this week some time.

Green seem to take double the cooking time of red...

Not All Lentils Are Created Equal—Which Variety Is Right for You? | Cooking Light

So it seems. I make the soup in question in the InstantPot™ so extra cooking time isn’t a problem - forty minutes instead of twenty minutes, or something like that

As I now have more lentils, lunch has been the last of the previous batch of zingy chicken, tomato and lentil soup

Brill!

I was wondering how restaurants and bars were dealing with excess stock. Glad you're doing your bit for the community and helping them out
