My paenioa finally flowered this year (along with the camilias and the magnolia I'd almost given up hope on). The flower on this is rather beautiful. No wonder it's called Bowl of Beauty! The sad thing is that the flowers don't last long. They are not edible flowers either so I guess this...

And a bit of fun in the midst of May. Youngest grandson had his 11th birthday. I ordered Jelly Bellies from Moonpig along with his card. Unfortunately, so did some grandkids for their Papa! He got his Jelly bellies with the Papa card and somewhere a Papa has a Pokemon card wishing him a happy...

You need to see the toilets to understand. The decor in the place is amazing. They did photograph the whole place, not just the toilets.

Don't think the smoosh sent.

Another of my odd inventions, a smoosh - 2 portobello mushrooms sandwichEd with goats cheese and GF Black pudding and a bit bacon. Dressed in my LC dressing. The bacon didn't work. I like bacon crispy. Another prawn salad and yet another topped wrap.

A few more of my dinners in May. My version of tge goats cheese from Cafe Andaluz (made lower carb) with salad. Another Cafe Andaluz home version - the honey/soy chicken with cauliflower fried rice to make a meal. Next peri peri rubbed pork ribs, another prawn salad. The next two I've developed...

An assortment of some of my meals last month. Ostrich cheese burgers and salad, prawn salad, crispy chicken escalope with fried rice and a cobette, low carb pasta carbonara, and Skinny hot dogs with a home made tomato & pepper ragu and a melted cheese.

I'm not going to attempt to fill in my diary this time. I'm just too far behind. I could do it, but it would just read like the thing I hate - a meal list! I'll do a few highlights of the past month, though. We've had friends over from Australia, I've still been tutoring grandson in multiple...

Her ferry was cancelled. They've moved her onto one at 7am tomorrow. She'll have an early rise to get there for check in ( and a long drive home when they dock in Oban).

She is in a company that does all things to do with power. They did a lot of solar panels, but now they lots of things.

Have a great holiday.

Yikes! I have a partial too. I had the weird situation during lockdown that a tooth moved sideways and the plate wouldn't fit anymore. I was grateful for facemasks as I couldn't get it remade. When I was eventually able to see my dentist, even he was surprised at what had caused the misfit.

Our decking needs total replacement. Just got an estimate for it, but since I'm at risk of going through it in one or two places now.....time to bite the bullet.

@Annb - my niece that lives next door is in Uist all week working. She got the ferry over fine. She was telling me today her ferry is booked for coming back, she's just keeping her fingers crossed it's not cancelled. She's there until Friday.

Tuesday 23 April - bed 7.8 FBG 7.4. BGs seem to be stabilising as this cough departs. It still pops up now and then, but it's lots better. School is getting better, too. B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with egg mayo. Benecol dairy free. L. Nothing D. A fishy meal. Smoked salmon, prawns...

Don't forget Antica on the Pulteney Bridge. That's the Italian where I got that fabulous mixed seafood main of their specials menu. I think I still have a photo of it. (Found it). Raphael's is amazing. We were there twice in 4 days. PS maths was part of my working life for 37 years (along...

Today, Monday 22 April - bed 7.8 FBG 7.4. It was a much better night. Not many "coughing" awakenings! I finally awoke at 7.10am, thinking it was Sunday [emoji848] Usual school run, eldest to mine as Mondays are pretty quiet for him at school. B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with egg mayo...

There's a few of us here been floored for weeks with a viral infection. We're just left with an annoying cough now (as you'll see from other posts).

There's quite a few of us I know about now who have had the same viral infection and are left with this annoying cough. It's not all day. You are fine for a while, and it just comes on out of the blue (usually at bedtime).
