Unless there was to be an insurance claim for the written off car?That's the only saving grace...........
. Surely not, Antje.

Any chance you have a bit of the covid?However, they tasted like cardboard. Not that they were overcooked, they were just done but the taste buds also seem to have gone on strike.
Don't worry!I don't know how much that (looks like a) barge weighs, but having seen what our 22 ton sailing yacht did to a relatively new marina mooring (and to a lesser extent itself), I'd urge enormous caution.
Yes, our boat was in a Cat 4 hurricaine at the time, but it is a sobering reminder of the power of Mother Nature.
Nope, it was my neighbour's (mine doesn't work again), serves him well for suddenly needing that uncomfortable and painful appointment with the GP!I am guessing that wasn’t @Antje77 ‘s car!
Point taken. Remind me in 5 years?edit: I see I am late with the info. So well done @Antje77 . You do need to consider the regular checks / cervical smear tests now, too.
I'm about to have a social zoom with friends I haven't seen in too long, looking forward to it!@Antje77
I've just realised I'm looking forward to the weekend...but my excitement will be in reading about your weekend!!
Hope it's a good one for you
Is that stolen the same as the fruit loaf we call stollen here? @Antje77 In Germany, stollen is traditionally baked at Christmas and usually has marzipan in the middle.So tonight I'll sleep in my own bed and treat myself to some stolen (from neighbour) crisps to prevent hypos, and a tramadol tablet for the neck, so tomorrow I'll be all fit and ready for a barbecue and booze with my neighbour!
German Stollen is called 'stol' here, specifically kerststol (Christmas stol) or paasstol (Easter stol).Is that stolen the same as the fruit loaf we call stollen here? @Antje77 In Germany, stollen is traditionally baked at Christmas and usually has marzipan in the middle.
Good night @Antje77and sleep well. The weekend will soon be upon us!
Haha! Stolen crisps @Antje77. It seems so obvious now in the cold light of day.German Stollen is called 'stol' here, specifically kerststol (Christmas stol) or paasstol (Easter stol).
But nothing of the kind today, I stole his crisps and put in some confusing brackets!
Crumpets freeze very well and toast perfectly from frozen. They are my OH's standby as we don't routinely buy a loaf of breadBreakfast: 2 crumpets. Yes - I know. I buy them for Em and, after her last visit until next week there were 2 left. They were getting past their best but I needed something to put the salmon pate on. So - 2 buttered crumpets piled up with h/m salmon pate, using the remainder of the salmon I was given a few days ago, along with some smoked salmon. 3 cups of the mixture in the freezer but half a cup for breakfast.
2nd meal will be shepherd's pie made with the rest of the rolled lamb roast, some veg and a swede crust. May follow with some raspberries and cream.
BOAC and BEA were merged and became BA 1st April 1974Breakfast - a bit late for breakfast, a bit early for brunch. Had to get on and have it so that I could take my new antibiotic pill. Running out of ideas for breakfast but there was some ratatouille left so I heated that and then dropped an egg into it and mixed it in. The heat of the stew cooked the egg. A bowlful of that was quite filling.
I have some sausages that I could have later, if I need any more food today.
The trunk with an inscription on it that we bought yesterday has a sticker on it that says "BOAC Singapore". When did BOAC become part of BEA, I wonder. I do remember it, but can't say when it was. BEA, of course, then became BA. Must have been quite a long time ago anyway. Maybe early 60's? Clearly the trunk has history though. Lots of rubbish in it - no treasure though.
I hadn't realised it was s late, but I suppose it must have been because in Italy they were still talking about BEA in 1970 when we were there. I had difficulty understanding what was being said when Italian staff talked about something that sounded like "Bay Ya". I got it in the end though, so I should have remembered that it was after that when the merger happened.BOAC and BEA were merged and became BA 1st April 1974
For a few years before the merger, they had to fly different routes so BEA went to Italy whereas BOAC did the longer hauls (mostly)I hadn't realised it was s late, but I suppose it must have been because in Italy they were still talking about BEA in 1970 when we were there.
