Shiny new toys!

Lidl - branch cutter 20V, I have a baby version (12v) and its one of my favourite toys. This one has a much bigger battery & motor.

Orbital sander - finally a battery one - no cable so annoying!

ents - willed to kill = a reasonable made for TV thriller good enough not to ruin.

open range (weekend) - excellent western Robert Duvall & Kevin Costner nailed it.

Walk walked along the alternative route, with the TV Times being purchased on the way back.

Lunch: the Ginsters Moroccan Vegan pasty that I'd forgotten about in the fridge, Heinz tomato soup with a hint of chilli plus Morrisons wholemeal sunflower and spelt bread, a red enpipped corner yog, bramble jelly sandwich, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

Entertainment: the NZ Border Patrol thing: lots of apple smuggling in this one.

The Curse of Oak Island S8 E2/E3 whatever the feck it is, the brothers have finally reached the island & are out of quarantine.

In the meantime Gary has found a coin with a square hole in it, a bit of a pewter spoon, a fecked up pick axe head, and others have found A Stone With A Hole In It.

Next week we find that The Coin With The Square Hole In It is Chinese.

How come I knew that when Gary didn't?

Followed by a thing about Butch & Sundance & the Dalton Gang. Gary's off hunting for gold they left behind.

Morning all (it's 0645)

It's sunny out again. It's 28 degrees ('feels like' 32) and 82% humidity. High of 32 expected.

HWMBO is doing his video supervised return to the UK test. Mine is in an hour or so. We are heading off visit the Belmont Estate (chocolate making) and the River Antoine rum distillery today. Hopefully they will be indoors and air-conditioned

Today's Kantar diary fact is:
Niagara Falls are illuminated for the first time to celebrate the visit of Edward, the Prince of Wales 1860

Century!

Lunch: roast pork and apple sauce bap (wholemeal)

And I've also managed to find time to get herby chicken, tomato and lentil soup going in the InstantPot™ with such remains of the Big Chicken as haven't been reserved for tonight's tea

No idea how to fit it in the freezer, but it'll be OK in the fridge for a few days until I can eat enough to make room
