Apparently I might be Addressing the Haggis in the Victorian Market Food Hall on Saturday.

Plenty of practice shouting coffee orders across the place. Might have to improvise though…

‘Tis the season for Seville Orange Marmalade! First batch made & a further 5 oranges in the freezer for summer.

I’ve just finished this beautifully written book by Nigel Slater. A great book to curl up with under a blanket on winter days (although I’m sure Nigel would disagree & want to be outdoors!). A few recipes picked out to try next Christmas.

Over the summer OH & I picked 35lb of brambles to make jam as wedding favours for our DD2. I have just made the first of 12 batches. Looks like it will be a busy Spring but absolutely a labour of love.

This, from the Guardian, is Ryanair at its very worst.

It's not good enough for them to insist that they're a low-cost airline and everyone knows the rules, in circumstances like this...

I wonder if legislation is needed?

Following an irritating email & a query on an order we had great customer service from #OVO & #BreadAhead today.

I have just returned from the theatre Royal Haymarket & have seen a brilliant production of Othello that will stay with me for a long time. David Harewood, Toby Jones & Caitlin Fitzgerald all excellent as was Vinette Robinson as Emilia.

#riotwomen oh God that conversation between Anne Reid & Tamsin Greig’s characters brought a tear to my eye. I have had those conversations with my own mum. Tough conversation but so real to my experience with a dementia parent.

Just returned from Twickenham. 2 excellent games, brilliant stewarding, lovely volunteer helpers, wonderful atmosphere, the best result! Well done #redroses.

Excellent result for England but huge respect to Samoa! No contracts, away from young family & some having to take unpaid leave from jobs. Well done! #RWC2025

Not my team but #cpfc deserved that win. Dean Henderson had a great penalty shootout!

#BBCLauraK where are the Green Party spokespersons? Where are the women? And in a week when discussion has been around voting age at 16, where are the younger MPs? A cliche maybe but very “male, pale & stale”. And Farage - Again!

Devastated for Sweden as they played so well but hell, England! Penalties such a cruel way to end a tournament! #WUEFA2025 #SWEENG

This is not looking good for England. #SWEENG

Well done England but I hope Wales can grow & build on what they have shown in this tournament. #WUEFA25 #ENGWAL

I can’t see beyond Spain for the #WUEFA2025. They look head & shoulders above the other teams I have watched.

Italy have the best dressed management/ medical team though.

I had minor eye surgery 2 weeks ago & this week I have made 3 cushion covers for DD1 & this cushion kit I have had for 2 or 3 years. Such a joy to get back to my sewing machine again! So many projects stacked up over the last few months.

Spain looking awesome! #ESPBEL

We spent a gentle afternoon at #kelmscottmanor the home to William Morris & family. The buildings date from 1600s with later additions. You may not agree with his brand of socialism but the man had vision! Some of his fabric designs, embroidery, paintings, books on display. Pretty gardens.
