Did you get one of the letters wrong then too?

Nah, I'm fat! Diet this year. Starting any day soon.
One of my 'mates' took this unflattering photo of me when we were on a biking trip last November. I think he might have photoshopped it.
Okay, I'm sitting on a bike, leaning back with bike suit on but still, he said it can be my 'motivation' photo for my diet. The ****! Still, I am a bit porky in this photo.
Healthy, grilled, whatsleftoverinthefridge brekki today.

Just wondered. It didn't look like butter!
Maybe I was surprised as I thought you were a butter type of bloke.

How does it compare?
Supposed to be good for me. I wouldn't know but tastes fine.
I enjoy a second breakfast as much as any hobbit and today i've toasted a slice of homemade bread to a golden brown, thinly spread with butter then a thick layer of homemade cherry(rasp)berry jam.
Making my own bread became an obsession and took several years of trial and error til i hit upon a 20% wholemeal mix to strong white flour that gives a nutty crunch to the toast, which i just don't find in shop bought bread. I stopped buying that after watching it crumble into chalk dust whenever i'd put out crumbs for the birds and never buy it now....until covid restrictions hit and everyone took up bread making, buying up all the flour and yeast.
Anyone asks me what the worst thing about lockdown was and i say buying shop-bread.
Gimme a crunchy slice of homemade toast anytime.

The letters are close together on the keyboard, so fat finger syndrome could be factor.

I use Wessex cobber flour -either on its own or 50/50 with white flour
it has a fantastic taste
for weekday sandwiches I use 58p (prob gone up now) bread flour from Lidl with 20% whole meal strong flour
Sometimes I chuck an egg yoke into the mix. Makes a difference.
