Just bought the replacement for our trusty air fryer which broke before we went away. We wanted a larger dual zone unit but had been struggling to decide which one. 

Managed to find a good deal direct from Tefal for their Dual Zone offering at £99 instead of the RRP of £160 so that was choice made.

Should arrive later in the week.

Looks like you had an amazing time mate, brilliant photos as always. We were at centre parcs with the in-laws this weekend also got back today. My son did the falconry and loved it.

Not bothered about the grey skies and we managed to keep dry on the whole. It was nice to be away.

The air fryer is a proper bargain. Just hope it is as good as out trusty old one it is replacing.

The falconry is great isn't it. We would definitely do it again. Amazing birds.

You and me both re work fml I would have loved another day off today ha. 

I think we’ll be doing the falconry again next year, they are amazing although my Mrs is !!!!!! terrified of them lol. 

My wife and I need to think about our diet a bit more- tuna steak Asian style sounds delicious and healthy too. I’ve !!!!!! massively over indulged on food the past few days and not managed to get back on the cut today either. She’s not best pleased, ha. I love my food so it’s just !!!!!! soul destroying.

We have not cut anything out of our diet, just watching portion control. Everything in moderation.

Its weigh in Wednesday today so we will see what the scales make of our holiday splurge. We were not exactly careful with what we were eating and drinking while we were away but we were doing a lot more walking so it will be interesting to see the result.

The birds are amazing up close. Had to have a laugh at your wife being scared of them though
