Filling up | nogbad I met Jemma for a coffee (I had hot chocolate) and then went across town to fill up. It looks quite festive with the lights shining in the twilight.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

Frosty morning | nogbad I braved the cold to get you a shot of the icy table in the garden. We're promised double-digit temperatures tomorrow, so that's alright.

No, not at all. I prefer mutton but it's not widely available anymore, it was far more popular and available when I was younger

I'm not sure what you mean - it's a casserole, so I do the stuff that makes it nice; I dredge it in seasoned flour and brown it, before it goes in with the sweated veg and herbs and stock
