Very envious re the ballet, @Busy-Lizzie. We cancelled the Nutcracker last month, because of the weather. Which company will you be seeing? We've...
Lamb mince shepherds pie here tonight, but with a celeriac and cauliflower mash topping. I had planned to prep the downstairs loo for a coat of...
It has gradually clouded over since sunrise and now it's a dull day, but no rain. They are still muttering about snow in this neck of the woods...
