Back from a weekend "In Bruges".
Beautiful city.
Fabulous time.
Top marks.

I liked bruges as well, did a ww1 battlefield your which was very good (and there was a bloke on the tour who was as mad as a balloon which made it even better).

Had to plan where to eat dinner quite carefully as there were some pretty awful touristy restaurants in the middle of town!

I managed to get Glastonbury tickets today. When I say I did, someone else got through to the website and bought them for me. I've never been to a festival before and it's really not my cup of tea but I thought I should go once in my life. Expect I will leave well before the end!

My dad loved his food.... that's "a jolly good scoff", nothing to do with quality. From Day One of the diagnosis, the drugs made all food taste vile and he pretty much stopped eating right there and then. It was really hard for me to keep trying to force him to eat tiny bits of smooth/soft stuff that might not taste vile.

Please encourage your party not to leave the results of their food poisoning in gateways to fields on the way home! And not to feed left over food to animals in fields. We used to hate the times around piston, not that close but close enough to have to wrestle crisp packets from animals mouths, and have vomit and defecation in the entrance way to fields. :eek: Picking horses feet out after that is a revolting job.

13 gallons of apple juice today to be turned into cider. However, we don't drink that much cider so, any advice on preserving the apple juice properly so we can keep it?

We can compile a NP address list.... WE all like cider

Something's taste fine still. Cheese mainly does. Milk tastes amazingly good. Eggs taste normal.

I was warned no chilled or frozen stuff, no fizzy and some other things will taste unpleasant'

I strongly suggest investing in waterproof trousers. Chances are you then won't need them, but if you do they make such a difference.
