Thanks for the skinnybread link @ianpspurs

You're welcome - we help each other. Someone else passed me the link and it is all the bread I use - it appears Schneider protein brot is not available anymore. It is very soft inside (but crusty exterior) so a breadknife isn't great, we use an electric slicer which does for cooked meat as well - I can eat cold cooked meat relatively happily. Although yeast is now in the mix, some users had bad experiences when it was in a separate packet, we add a tsp of yeast to ours. Good protein and fibre profile.

Can't ID your birds, they are a rum combination, Dunelm!
 
Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen and those who throw caution and whatever else they can find at the wind and paddle their own canoe.

An unsurprising 7.5 this morning.
Well fellow posters, painters and gamers, what is left of today will be devoted to my shed, but first my afternoon nap.
 
Well my bg had risen to 5.9 this morning, but then again my sore throat of the last few days disappeared only to leave me sneezing and getting through tissues today!!!
 
Not like that horrid 110 volt systems in the States!

But if there are three phase supplies in France it wouldn't half blow the seat out of your pants if you got across the 440v of two adjacent phases. Each phase peaks120 degrees behind the next one.
One can have hours of fun with the maths.

I used to get the job of yearly maintenance of the main distribution board at our transmitter. Didn't like it cos it meant a nightshift. One needed to quickly isolate from the 11kv cct taking all the covers off beforehand, quickly checking all the connections for heating after switching off.
One of the guys before me dropped a spanner in the disboard before it was switched off and it melted when it got across two busbars. I knew this from the guy who helped him.

He soon got promoted!
He apparently said, "Flipping heck" at the time!

Sophisticated table lamp afterwards? I thought you may have been a Mateus Rose kinda guy - less of your pennies - always a consideration Beyond the Wall, so I've heard. (Hatfield and The North always made me chortle)

An ex cook told us once if a loaf goes dry, cut it in half, run both sides under the cold tap and put in a hot oven for ten minutes or so and It tastes like newly baked bread.

Got to love a Mateus Rose even though they have changed the bottle shape.
Here is what the original one looked like when I did the still life in 1966. My mum had it until two years ago when she got fed up of it and gave it me back.
 
Yes we do need to exchange ideas @ianpspurs and it is great that we do on here.
Thanks
