    Waves back been out to drs and home after a blowy walk.

    Picked up two mystery parcels at the post office which were unexpected xmas pressies :)

    Fire's on - off to do a bit of life admin whilst watching a bit of Nigella.

    :) waves back to EH hope its warmer with you!

    Tea plans are something ricey but Nigella is making tattie pancakes and they look yum.

    tattie pancakes....like tattie scones? Or different?

    Actually - thinking about it, probably exactly the same as I'm pretty sure their "proper" name is pancakes.... you've now got me thinking about a nice egg, bacon & tattie scone roll..... :drool:

    I do hate it when work interferes with a good read of MSE

    Just finishing up some paperwork - then hoping for a bit of a read :)

    Hope you're all well.

    Note - tattie pancakes seemed a bit 'pancakey' to me as tattie scones are made purely with flour/tattie she made a batter with eggs/milk/instant mash - I think there was flour in there too I'd have to rewatch it was all a bit bizarre.

    :)

    All petrol expensed today
    HM teas
    Milk purchases but nowt else

    One DD retreived from a hairyplane.

    so far so good.

    Early start and long day - another tomorrow.

    Weekend relatively free though :)
