    Hope you wake up feeling better all round MWC.

    PS Love to LRH :)

    Much less grumpy this morning :D

    Miss LRH wasn't too fussed when I gave her your love... she was too busy trying to jump in the treat bucket :rotfl:

    Eggs IN 3
    Eggs OUT 8 (6 sold for £1.50, 2 eggs used for baking)

    I had to take some furry tomatoes back to Sainsburys - replacement and full refund given :T

    The new tomatoes were made into tomato & butterbean stew and served with a baked potato for dinner

    We had a veg box delivered today for the first time in ages - it includes broad beans, sugar snap beans, sweetcorn, padron chillies - yum! And a beautiful cardoon flower :cool:

    I'm baking a rum-soaked sultana, banana & walnut cake to take to a meeting with ex-colleagues tomorrow :D

    Just realised that we fly to Toronto 8 weeks tomorrow

    :eek: that means I have to start thinking about making Christmas puddings as I will have to smuggle a couple in my suitcase :D

    What a beautiful morning :)

    The Girls and I have been eating fresh alpine strawberries in the garden this morning - I'm not so keen on the flavour but the chooks love them :D Miss Beryl was PYOing :rotfl:

    Just finished a TC with my US counterpart to discuss the budget variance - didn't achieve much but we both had a good moan :D

    Eggs IN 6
    Eggs OUT 3 little Beryl's (I made another banana cake)

    Broad bean, courgette & pea risotto for dinner

    Mr MWC left £1.94 lying around this morning so I tidied it up into his secret money box. I'm looking forward to counting that at the end of the year :D

    You're so impatient Natty... I suppose legally they can't declare you the winner until after the closing date :p
