Just started cooking lunch. We're having meatballs with jacket potatoes and broccoli. We found reduced price minced lamb and turkey in Tesco that has been great for making meatballs!

Arrived down in Goonhavern to a beautiful sunny morning (timed it just right for bacon & egg sarnies at the Garden Centre round the corner!). Quick unload from the car and straight up to the dunes - been suffering withdrawal symptoms for the past fortnight.
Now relaxing with a coffee before an afternoon shopping trip!

Visited a concert venue this afternoon to check out things for Saturday's concert then on to a long hectic practice to get the concert items ship shape. 12.30 am and just arrived back home. The good thing is we did manage to have tea out at a local pub to save the journey back home in between. Great steak pie with mushy peas and chips with a pint at The Black Swan, Jackfield, near Ironbridge. Dog friendly too. Always enjoy our visits to The Black Swan.

Write your comments here...Seems like a nice meal, David. Was it puff pastry that they used for the steak pie?
No, it was short crust pastry, Malcolm, but still very nice. It was like half a large circular pie - very large - and I like the mushy peas option too.

Oh well if we're talking food I've got a nice beef stew on the go in the slow cooker, enjoying the smell just now. Even though I don't eat the beef I like the veg and will probably add some lentils for my bit of protein. Just the stuff for a cold winter
day.

A morning of being The Chief Financial Executive. i.e.quarterly VAT and monthly Payroll done.
Meanwhile the domestic staff (doubling up as The Chief Financial Executive) have put dinner in the Aga and polished three silver cups we are returning to the Annual Dinner and Awards Do for our Shorthorn region. How many will we be bringing home? As the
one who is let in on the secret Prize List in order to print the certificates, I have a good idea! The rest of the family prefer not to know and like a surprise, so I have a sealed file to take tonight.0 -
A well kept secret eh? Not a case of 'you herd it here first'

I paid the annual renewal on my car insurance this afternoon. It cost me £1903. I had to stay on hold for twenty minutes on the phone before I could speak to someone. Once I got an answer, it was fairly straightforward on making a card payment over the phone.
Now all paid up until December 2017.0 -

Eating up 'emergency rations' cleared out of the motorhome. Lots to choose from forrin' shopping purchases: tinned cassoulet, soupe de poissons, pate de jambon, gratin dauphinois, plus several cartons of Longlife milk and Birds custard, tinned fruit...... but
best of all a Fray Bentos tinned snake and pigmy pie........mmmmm, it'll be a nice but naughty easy meal tonight with leeks, sprouts, carrots and peas and enough veg left over for bubble and squeak tomorrow. I do enjoy winter menus.0 -

Write your comments here...Yes and I saved £200 by doing it in a single payment rather than by monthly direct debit. It covers me for business use as well.

.Well there's only me in the m/h so I can indulge in 10 or more stones of alimentary pleasures. Mind you, Fray Bentos pies are rubbish at Scrabble.
