      Mid morning snack of jam on toast currently being enjoyed.

      I'm now thinking of making mini bakewell tarts (it's a berries and cherries jam, you see)

            Lunch: zingy chicken, tomato and lentil soup with wholemeal bread

            I did think about having a bacon butty, but I need to get through some freezer stocks to make room for the turkey soup I'll be making on Boxing Day

              Inbound trundling of a recycling bin accomplished

              If I can be bothered, I can half-fill it with stuff already piled up in the kitchen, as others filled it quite rapidly the past couple of weeks, usually with stuff that shouldn't be in there. But I might wait until Boxing Day when there'll be more stuff to go in there.

                The Polish café have been working late into the night all this week; they were still there gone midnight last night. Given with the fact that they've also been using a van when their estate car usually suffices, I assume they've been taking orders for traditional Polish Christmas food for delivery to the diaspora around the city.

                They're there now, but I assume they'll knock off early today for a well-earned Christmas break

                I vaguely remember them working late in the run-up this time last year too, but they also had a few Christmas parties going on there on various evenings, which of course hasn't been possible this year

                  Lunch was also soup.
                  Baxter's 'hearty' spicy green lentil daal.
                  quite hot, too.

                    Mother on the phone…

                    M: Have you heard anything?
                    Me: No, not yet.
                    M: Oh, well I'd better not keep you talking in case they're trying to phone you.
                    Me: I've told you, they don't phone you.
                    M: Oh, what do they do?
                    Me: As I explained, they send an email and a text.
                    M: And have you had any?
                    Me: IF I'D HAD ANY I'D KNOW WHAT THE RESULT WAS WOULDN'T I!
