They look cheerful in the kitchen as the autumn evening draws in.
The Great British Bake Off starts tonight
Another signal that winter is almost here.
I’ve lit the fire as Roger is gleefully chasing a daddy long legs around the kitchen .
It’s a habit William used to do with honey bees in the garden and it pleases me to see Roger playing the same games
Weaver is sat under my desk and has already grumbled at Mary as she ambled to the sofa to sleep her old lady sleep.
I’m counselling all day tomorrow so have put beef and vegetables in the slow cooker with stock , chillies and Worcestershire sauce…..beef stew is a great supper on an autumn night.
I will leave you with this video , which a friend sent me this morning , a memory from 2018
The best memory of an awful year…..thanks to you guys I raised 5 grand for Samaritans , even though I looked like Shelley Winters in a sleeping bag
Jet propelled John! What a wonderful and breathtaking memory! Time to do it all again!

DeleteOh, I wish I had the nerve! But I suppose, once I’m strapped in there is nothing to do but enjoy…hmmmm. Olivia
ReplyDeleteIt was a good challenge for a dreadful time
DeleteNigella is the star of the new bake off ! The Queen Prue is dead long live the new Queen
ReplyDeleteOMG, Prue is gone from Bake-Off?!?! She's not literally dead, I hope. I quite liked her and her colourful fashion sense.
DeleteAlthough I could have a thing for Nigella, I must say.
We in North America will see this year's Bake-Off next year. It takes a year to be broadcast here, I don't know why.
Nigella won me over in the first episode a real queen
DeleteYou're a braver man than I, Gunga Din! Made my stomach turn just watching from the comfort of my armchair. But what a fantastic amount you raised! Did you enjoy it, or was it definitely a one off? xx
ReplyDeleteI loved every minute
DeleteIs Bun still around?
ReplyDeleteNo she’s been gone a month
DeleteI would never have the nerve to zoom in the air like that, John!
ReplyDeleteIt’s very high Ellen
Delete500 feet
DeleteI remember your zip line fundraiser, John. You were so brave to do that, but it DOES look like fun. Like being Superman for a day!
ReplyDeleteSuperman’s
DeleteFat uncle
You do not look fat, why do you put yourself down. I do understand it is a British male thing, but still. And you were super brave. What a stupid sport, we should have paid you NOT to do it, lol.
ReplyDeleteI am fat xx
