    Afternoon denizens

    Sunny out, with a few thin and wispy bits of cloud here and there. Not that warm at 6°C, but it's better than it has been

      Just remembered that I needed to do some laundry. So that's now in the WM. A selection of smalls, tops and leggings.

      Reserved some flights in the SWISS companion sale for HWMBO and I to go to Singapore in September. A mere £1,886 each return in first class. Well worth a speculative punt.

        Afternoon - well it's not dark yet.

        Sorted out a Christmas tree from a small shop down the road as it's small business Saturday.

          BBC Radio 4 - The Reith Lectures, 2020: Mark Carney - How We Get What We Value, From Moral to Market Sentiments

          Very well presented so far, starting with Economics 101.
          Finally listening to this.

          Update: Interesting audience and their questions...

          Looking forward to the rest of the series over the coming weeks.

            Late lunch snack had of left over roast chicken in a wholemeal pitta liberally doused with mayo.

            Nice and simple, very satisfying.

              Lunch was at a cafe in Ripon on the way back from collecting twin 2 from Leeds.

              She has after 5 hours finally stopped talking.

                Felt a tad peckish but it's too early for the Chinese, so I just had a couple of rounds of buttered wholemeal toast

                  Lamb chops and boerewors on the braai. Hasselback potatoes, roasted beetroot and steamed greens.

                  Rioja has been good, too.

                  I've got to face Strictly with Mrs Scruff.

                    Watching Strictly.

                    I'm biased. I currently want a particular older person to win.

                      I will be watching that on catch up so I can FF through most of the waffle.

                      I too would like a particular older person to win. I wonder if we are rooting for the same one?
