My Wife says I don't do anything romantic but I just gave her my randomly allocated aisle seat. If that's not romantic then I don't know what is.

I can't even remember Chuckie Egg2! CE1 was the pinnacle of platform games.

I wonder what the cost is as a percentage of disposable income? I suspect higher than 10 years ago.

Bbqs are an all weather event in this house.

Earliest life skill a toddler needs to learn is how to use the TV remote.

I'd forgotten about that phone line! I now need to find a dark room and lie down.

It's a start. Waitrose do a very nice cave aged goats cheese. Manchego is goats cheese so will be similar.

Yes, very common these days. Aldi & Lidl are always a good place to start.

I love cheese but don't have anything blue. Manchego or any hard goats cheese is a nice place to start. I had a triple cream brie from Lidl and that was great, more cream than cheese.

I'm thinking turkey and ham pizza for today instead of the usual pie.

It's at the harbour, near the pirate ship.

Venice is amazing. Genoa is also wonderful, the Via de Garibaldi is something else, also has the best ice cream shop I've been to.

I give you, The Ham. Another joint effort and another fantastic glaze that my Son has created.

I have to say, the turkey was absolutely amazing. Seasoning and glaze made by my Son & it made a huge difference.

Bird is on the big egg. First time using a Meater probe so therefore I am unnecessarily anxious. Plenty of sweet chestnut smoke though.

Old Pulteney is worth a try I reckon, not as full on as Laphroaig but very nice. As others have said though, MaCallan is wonderful.

Joint effort in our house, I'll do turkey & beef on the bbq, Wife does the rest. I will admit that my bit is the easiest.

That's the last of the 18th Birthday celebrations out of the way. Suppose I'd better get ready for Christmas now.

BBQ is lit. A bit later than planned, but the brisket is on.
