Out with Henry

Thanks to your comments I've removed references to Kissinger in my study and replaced him with Mo Mowlam. Much more inspiring.

I used my new knife today for the first time - my birthday really is over - and it's sharp! I must have got too used to my old knives as I cut myself twice in five minutes this afternoon! Fortunately my nail not my flesh.

And these words are music to my ears: "Sorry, there won't be an exercise class next week."

I don't really hate it - I wouldn't go if I did - but it's nice to have a good excuse.

Life continues to be quite busy but I think, after this week, maybe, it'll ease off. (Who am I fooling? There may just be a brief respite, we'll see.)

Pizza for dinner tonight and here's the tomato sauce bubbling away nicely.

Made with tomatoes from the garden. Still!

ha, ha, I love the "Sorry, there won't be an exercise class next week." I feel the same about swimming, I don't hate it and I'm always pleased when I've been, but getting ready to go I'm always thinking "If Gill messages to say she isn't going, I'm out!!"

We are on the last of our garden tomatoes too. Yummy!

Every time I get my knives sharpened I get a couple of nicks before I get used to the honed blade

Unexpected breaks in our routines are nice.
