I decided it was time to find out if this year’s sloe gin was a success. Answer:yes. Amazing aroma of … almonds. Colour not as deep as I’d expected.

In Forensic Science, each item of evidence must be considered from both points of view - innocence, guilt. Lucy’s demeanour in court makes a great deal of sense under innocence. None at all under guilt. So it’s strong evidence for innocence. #lucyletby #freedom4lucy

The meal was not notable but the wine was. A French rosé made from the Malbec grape. The vibe which was eradicated in France by a fungal infection in the early 1900’s. Survived in Chile and Argentina. Now back in France

This month’s project: merge my collection of wood (in the attic) with my collection of old suitcases (in various locations elsewhere in the house) and get rid of both in an environmentally responsible way. I’m about half way now.

Yesterday’s main meal: oven tray baked salmon, it was good, and plenty left over for today. Recipe: miljuschka.nl/zalm-uit-de-...

Near the end. The work was done by three people from a specialized company. Efficient, fast. They used a sledgehammer to dismantle a couple of ancient chests of drawers.

Exhausted but happy after a near total clean-out of our attic. Full of the detritus of 40 years.
