Yesterday afternoion I got a telephone call from the Bridge Club Secretary, asking if I wanted to play tomorrow (Tuesday) evening; of course I was delighted, particularly when I found out it was someone I knew and liked. It is being held in a Community Hall as the Bridge Club building is closed this week.
Today I went to visit a friend of long standing, CW; we met when I went to work as a "temp" - this was after I "retired" - in the company where she was working. We have kept in touch ever since. Today she fed me the most enormous 3 course lunch and I am "stappit fu". On the way home I went to find the Community Hall and was also reassured to find plenty of car parking just next door.
Home now and sorted out the organic veg - potatoes, carrots, onions, a whole celery, broad beans, 2 courgettes (which have obviously benefitted from last week's rain), curly kale, broad beans.
No cooking this evening as I could not face another mouthful!

"Stappit fu' " to your long distance friends, means "stuffed full (of food)"! A wee Scottisicsm.
I made blackcurrant jam yesterday from own fruit - its first year and only 1/2 a pound (1/4 kilo). I thought it would be difficult to get the jam to set, but no! I now have blackcurrant toffee!!
Came back from an excellent evening of bridge, tired, wide awake (yes, the two do go together) and STILL not hungry.
ps, sprry about the blackcurrant jam. :-(
Oh dear tbsitw I remember doing that with bramble... resembled and tasted like toffee. I ended up throwing mine away but can you fix it?
Hello Sage
The jam tastes ok, so I just need to chisel it out of the jar!
Hey tbsitw, perhaps it is time to start your own blog as you keep hijacking mine! ;-)
