That was nice! A short walk and a very pleasant sit in the sun on traffic duty. Now I shall have some hot dinner and yes, part of it will be the belly pork I cooked earlier.

It's the same here in Barlick Gloria..... I can see that a bit of a walk will be a pleasure.

It's a nice morning for the market Sue.... I hope you have a pleasant shop.
I have just retrieved the belly pork and committed it to the next stage of the plan, being cut up into bite sized chunks and stewed slowly with diced fried potatoes..... It can do that without any supervision.

Yes Gloria but what is it specifically designed for? It has a purpose.

And we're warming up Cathy.....

Glad you like it Cathy, there is more to come.

Still good history and part of our town.

Yesterday afternoon was the best weather yet this year, calm, sunny and warm. It was warmer outside than it was in the house.... At 20:00 it was still warm with an almost totally clear sky and late sunshine. The glass is down slightly on 1020mb and the forecast is for a sunny start to a bright dry d...

I finished reviewing Wallander last night. I had forgotten that the series ends with him falling prey to Alzheimer's.....
Not exactly a bundle of laughs but very good acting.

See THIS for a triumph of hope over reality.... Notice also that the image of Sunak shows him looking upwards at the new dawn that is coming...... Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has said that it will "take time" for people to "really feel better" as figures revealed the UK had emerge...

BARLICK LIFE 1900 ONWARDS (2) We ended last weeks piece with the outside closet. We might as well continue on this exalted level and look at the rest of the household waste. I used to spend quite a lot of time in Laneshawbridge and there was one place in a field there, next to the beck, where for ye...

Chicken and veggies X three for breakfast, dinner and tea.
I have had some pork belly marinading all night, it will get roasted this morning.....

I wonder if they were related to the thunder that was about?
Later.... I heard a report that the solar storm we are experiencing is the most powerful for 20 years. Could this be the explanation for our rash of power outages?

What is it?

I shall be in the shed as usual working on the wobblers and at some point this morning I shall roast the pork belly which has been marinading all night....

And perhaps the fact that they made life so complicated for themselves that they didn't fit the needs of the planet.

I recognise that one Cathy!

Back up and having a hot drink before going for a walk. Apples and milk would be good....

Sot on Wendy.
I can see I am going to have to be more original!

I would have thought the hospitality industry would be working a bit harder to get return visits from clients but it looks as through they have different ideas of running a business Sue. I hope you have a better experience for the rest of the day..... https://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/app.php/gall...
