What have you been doing today?

As soon as MP's start doing the police's job then we are in trouble.

I don"t follow.sorry.

I don"t follow.sorry.

Soz,
I mean is that even if she is fibbing, it's not up to the MP's to decide that/look into it. They should've informed the police straight away and let them investigate.

Smile Mottie.

I thought a smirk would be more appropriate.

While I was there I picked my big Cauliflower. Big as me 'ead! Going to pickle it.

Before anyone says, I’m going to pickle the cauliflower, not me 'ead - that’s already pickled!

I thought it was trapped wind.

Pickling. All done. I must admit I did feel a little bit guilty butchering my lovingly grown cauliflower. Still, hopefully Colin didn’t die in vain and will give us some pleasure in his passing. More than enough to pickle though - I used less than half of him so I blanched the rest and froze it - that’ll make a nice cauliflower cheese. I had some pickling vinegar left over so I peeled a couple of dozen of my garlic cloves and pickled them too. TGFF! Busy, busy, busy.

What a beauty. I coulda won a prize for him.

All done - I put some carrot in for a touch of colour.

I've got a plan for my remaining cauli's. Cauliflower steaks! One of Mrs Motties mate’s had one in a poncey restaurant a while ago. It was the same price as a real meat steak!

Took the dog for a swim today. Over the allotment! She likes picking up things from the bottom of the water troughs.

That should make an interesting picture.

Didn't see your other post above. LOL

Anyway, today I am about to start erecting a 13' x 26' marquee tent in the back garden.

FIL's 80th on Saturday and it was my stepsons 21st at the beginning of April, which we couldn't 'family celebrate' because of Covid.
Now FIL is allowed out we are having a double celebration Saturday afternoon/evening. Family only event and as we are in the countryside we are not likely to pop down the road for some more booze.
Only downside is I am working Sunday so have to go easy on the falling down liquor.

Bilberry picking today. disappointing, got about 100g, which is rubbish. Still got to stand on top of ilkley moor, where all my small troubles in life melt away. Heaven.

Lucky thing, it's beautiful there. Spent a few afternoons at the Cow and Calf. Miss the Yorkshire countryside, it's rather special.

, everyone issued with 2 washable face coverings, (not masks but with the insertion of a supplementary filter or other such thing, i.e. disposable/washable mask they give great protection),

What make are those, sound interesting? I'm after something a bit better than the disposable surgical type I use now.
