Tropical Melody

Looks like it's going to continue to be 'unsettled' for the next 30 days, i.e. up to 20th May. 48 flood alerts in England. Still cold like winter.

Last minute decision - defrosted reheated take-out prawn balti & pilau rice with an onion bhaji, & garnished with slices of tomato, cucumber & spring onions. Didn't think I was going to eat it all but I did. No pix.

Leftover chicken nuggets, roast parsnips & potatoes, steamed carrots, roast courgette, English mustard.....

"How was your nap?"

"It was good."

"I need a job like yours."

"OK, back to gross alien things ..."

Diced sausage with spicy Mexican rice.....

-

The 'spicy' is not that much, but it's OK.

Looks very nice ourside, sunny spells, occasional bijou showerette, but it's bitter out there!

10° C, feels like 7, cloudy, north wind gusting 21 mph.

Drinking coffee and browing here.

1. Don't talk to the Mickey Mouse statue.

2. Pick up any tools you see lying around.

3. Don't cross the river.

4. When you get lost, follow the cats (notice 'when', not 'if')

Using up leftovers (mostly) - quiche lorraine (spelling? OK ..) with leftover roast potatoes, a few steamed new potatoes to make up, half a small can of baked beans, bit of mixed salad on top (red thing in the middle is half a tomato) .....

Surprisingly good! Evening was chips & cheese, chocolate later.

8 things people did 100 years ago that are now illegal - for very good reasons!

"I admire the effort here to brush it off, but as every kid and parent knows, the only way she's getting that glitter off her pants and car, is by burning them both to the ground ..."

Ever talk about something that you want that's always out of stock, then see that it's back in stock and instantly buy it? 

Well, that thing (for me) arrived this morning.

I Googled that, and went down a rabbit hole .....

Don't pull off your finger nail. It hurts.

Is this for real?  

What to do for lunch.....

"We can do anything you want doing that we do, but we don't do that."

Continuing to be unsettled - I think it may be safe to try mowing the grass then it starts raining again. Still chilly, wind gusting 20 - 28.

"Now some things happened in the past, with me and filling up batteries (with acid) - law suits, and some people died - so I can't do it myself, so I'm going to let someone else do it ..."

"This is some redneck stuff right here."

Cheddar cheese and crackers.

We're just gonna keep on keeping on...

Sausage casserole, mushrooms, red pepper, fried onion, baked beans, casserole mix sauce.....

Reheated vegetable samosas & onion bhajis, with bread & marg.

Sunday lunch comprising of half a Cornish pasty, mixed root mash (leftovers), roast parsnips & courgette, brocolli, horseradish sauce.....
