Delice de Bourgogne on toast is food fit for the Gods.
A lower middle class version of spreadable cheese out of a tube on toast that was often my tea in my youth. The ingredients are much better but the resulting contentment is much the same 😊

Smoke these ungrateful pricks out. People going out of their way & putting their own lives in danger to rescue them AND being shown kindness by getting discounted hotel rooms ... but they still haven't paid. Gave a wrong number to contact them AND stole head torches. 🤬

Aonishiki back to back yushos! Incredible at just 21.
He wins in a playoff against the often smiley & popular Atamifuji, who had his best ever tournament. Only 23 himself he has a lot of chances ahead (although i fear he is in a golden age of wrestlers with Onosato, Hoshoryu and Aonishiki). #sumo

We are in the bedroom and have been for a while (no, not that).
Wandered into the loving room to find all the lights still on and got to shout 'It's like Blackpool illuminations in here!'
I could sense the spirit of my Dad appearing, Yoda like, in front of me smiling and nodding sagely.
