    Our Chipper is open. I cant go down, because they know me now, so I get enough for about 3 people. And I eat it all.

    Tonight had melting middle fish cake with salmon and spinich, peas, tender stem brocolli and the nicest thing ever, steamed baby potatoes. For some reason, I'm craving and loving the home made dinners with fresh veg, just butter and lemon. I found a Sistema microwave thing in the press, it's fantastic for cooking veg/potatoes in Microwave.

    Good day at work....nicely busy. But shut down at 18.30 for the day. Makes a huge difference.

    Meh! I had a tayto sandwich!

    My outlet used to be eating out in nice hotels/restaurants or a decent takeway while on the road with work. My short stay in London was nearly the same with some great Asian stuff from a flat mate. Loved cooking at home when it was this way, but this is my longest stint of continuous cooking at home. Day after feckin day.

    "What would you like for dinner?"

    "Dunno."


    Do these women not realise that I sometimes just want a beer, Disney+ and a massive takeaway. Followed the next morning by a nice traditional breakie or a light continental version, in bed or while I watch the telly.:D

    Not a big white bread eater anymore. 1980s school lunches put me off it as a staple. A bit of brown bread like McCambridges's is nice or one I bake myself using the Odlum's mix.

    Did some of that myself today, it's very relaxing!

    I also did some CPD, a bit of reading, crocheting, I got a load of washing done and I went for a walk.

    Back on topic, kitchen side waiting to have food. One of my housemates is cooking first.

    We have it because the kids like it, but it just tastes like a whole load of nothing to me!

    Granddeod - you asked me on the other thread about travel history etc. I'm boring as feck tbh. Live in Manchester, have been back to Ireland once this year (mid February). Commute on public transport to work, or did until March 16th. I got ill on the 19th/20th.

    I'm couchside, laptop out, trying to get my 4 year old new shoes because he's had a growth spurt and I haven't the energy to brave the giant Asda at Hulme to go and buy some in person. It's a total crapshoot whether he's size 11 or 12 though...

    I find those very handy to have behind the door if someone breaks in. A whack across the head with one of those Odlums mix loaves and they wont be robbing anything.

    Cheers Rainbow. I was working in London and took a huge risk coming home to my wife and daughter last month, but my wife was prepared for the risk as she was frightened by all the stuff going on. I took a gamble and after 14 days had no symptoms so as I've been saying, if I catch it, I'll catch it here in Ireland. Funny you should mention kids shoes, me and Mrs G were only talking about if our daughter was in a change shoe every couple of months mode and how getting her fitted and shoed up would be a bloody nightmare.

    Stay safe and best of luck.

    Just had the leftover Thai red chicken curry spilled onto some Airfryer chips. Gorgeous and hot. Winding down with a Lucozade zero and a Double Decker watching The Fast Lady from 1962. Made before my birth, but a classic all the same. Nighty night folks!

    Now couchside chatting with him :)

    This whole lockdown thing is making us all very very bored. And we have to find entertainment wherever we can. Even if our 'normal' selves would never dream of doing something, we might now find ourselves behaving in that very way out of sheer desperation brought on by this awful virus.

    So what I'm trying to say is..

    Did you and crowded house meet here on boards or does your relationship predate boards? And I know that's incredibly nosey but it's this lockdown! It has me itching for some gossip. Naturally I'm not usually so nosey!!! Nope. Not me. And also naturally you don't have to answer that!

    Have you been to the etiquette thread yet? :pac:

    Couchside about to go for a shower after doing bits and bobs all day.

    Lonely day today, I'd love a catch up with people and a hug.

    Do not go into the etiquette thread.
    It lacks a lot of etiquette!

    You can buy a clarks foot gauge measuring thingy. They are cheap enough around 12 quid.

    I bought one for mine as I'm not an "everyday is an adventure" parent and the idea of dragging them shopping does not appeal.

    Now I just take measurement, pop into the online calculator and shop online. Limited stress :)
