    I best have a soft drink I was looking after six of the DGC, still got two of them here, a five year old and 18 month old.
    I'd probably find it easier after a stiff gin, but it's safer not to.
    Chin up, Titus out.

    I'll have what you're having burtha sounds so much nicer than just orange juice. I hope your DH is recovered from last weekend.

    Pinot grigio sounds good for me too please.

    Hiya wondercollie, good to see you back! How are things there now? I do hope the fire is over. Of course, once the worst of any crisis is over, they stop reporting on it,so we don't get to hear what's happening!

    Jack Daniel's and Coke here, which is what I fancied picking up when I was shopping but they didn't have any cans. I bought a bottle of cream liqueur as a treat, as I hadn't been shopping for a few weeks and had been running my stores down.
    On the plus side, I discovered whilst said stores were down that I CAN make bread, I just needed a good recipe, and A!di's strong flour bag has one. Tempted to make some more, even though I bought some lovely seeded bread.

    Edit. Recovering after the gutting disappointment of Brexit, as a Disabled person we relied heavily on Europe to protect us. Now the Gov't has lurched spectacularly right and our nemesis IDS is back on the scene. Many of my Disabled friends are talking about moving to Scotland, and those in NI are getting Irish passports.

    Would any readers be able to walk me through sourdough bread making from starter to the dough baking. It's my nemesis at the moment and hoping for an OS hand with it. :)

    I know that it's much too late to drink now but can I put in an order for tomorrow morning please burtha?

    Several pints of black coffee, industrial strength please, should keep me upright and awake for long enough to cope with my 3 year old pickle.

    RESPECT, Hester!
