    RS that made me laugh - at least one series of Police Interceptors has featured our town! 😂😂

    Parma violet ice cream gets a firm 👎🏻🤢 from me I’m afraid. Could only have been a worse thought if it it had been lavender flavoured - I really don’t do floral flavours in food at all! 
    Lavande ice cream in FRance is just the thing  :smiley:
    Yes - it will be a revolting thing!  :lol::wink:

    I’ve just stopped for a dinner break. The last of the home made leek and potato soup with a lovely sprinkling of cheese on top.
    This morning I’ve made a pasta sauce out of veg in the fridge and chopped and frozen some reduced leeks I’d bought last week. Now I just need to figure out if it’ll fit in the freezer 😳
    I’ve dusted and hoovered downstairs and washed the bedding so that it’s nice to come home to. I’m really struggling now though as I think I’ve pulled a muscle in my chest behind my shoulder blade. It’s my right hand side so nothing to worry about. I want to make the bed, pack the van and Hoover the stairs yet so will take some paracetamol and carry on 😏
