Day 5761 & 5662 (11 & 12/10/2025)

I was up early to finish off catching up with my work.  My wife was still full of a cold, so I made her brunch and in the afternoon, we decided to have a lazy day, watching the telly and relaxing. 

We finished off the leftover soup in the evening and a made some cardamom rice pudding for afters. 

My wife felt a bit better, so went in to work on Sunday. I saw my parents for breakfast, them tidied the garden a bit when I go back, but had a slight accident with on of the gnomes. 

Then I made a nice roast pork dinner, but my wife and now Thomas had colds, so I sat alone eating my dinner :-(  

It was very nice. 

Day 5760 (10/10/2025)

Another similar day, with my wife full of a cold and me with loads of work to do.  I made a tasty and rather overly filling egg & bacon roll for a brunch / lunch, then in the evening I cooked some tasty salmon parcels, with new potatoes and a some hollandaise sauce. 

Very tasty. 

Day 5759 (09/10/2025)

My wife was off today but her cold / flu really him home and she was full of it, so spent most of the day snoozing in-front of the telly, whilst I made us breakfast & lunch and did my work.  

In the evening I turned the leftover cauliflower & broccoli cheese into a tasty soup, with the addition of some vegi single cream and some vegetable stock. 

Obviously topped off with my signature giant cheesy croutons.

Very nice.

Day 5756 (06/10/2025)

Monday I was up early to do some work, then off to Bristol, on the train, to meet up with some old colleagues, one of whom I hadn't seen since about 1985. We spoke for hours but I forgot to take a picture of us but did take on of my lunch.

Then home to catch-up with work.  In the evening I wasn't that hungry, so just had some tea & toast, with jam for dinner.  

Day 5754 & 5755 (04 & 05/10/2025)

It was a very windy day in Taunton, not because of the curry but a storm. I did some work first thing, then we had some nice brunch.

We went out in the afternoon to buy a few things and have a coffee and share a cake, then in the evening I made a vodka rigatoni.  

Sunday was my parents Wedding Anniversary, so I saw them as I usually do but took over a card and some flowers and other bits. 

In the afternoon, we had some leftover curry bits for starters.

Day 5753 (03/10/2025)

My back felt a bit better but I had the appointment, so still went and I'm glad I did, as I always feel better after being manipulated and pulled around by the guys at The Beleveder Centre.

In the evening I made a tasty seafood curry, with a nice saag (spinach) panner. 

All with a nice bottle of cobra.

Day 5750 (30/09/2025)

A fairly early start today, as I had to be up to open the side gate as the scaffolding was finally being taken down.  They turned up early and thankfully were soon finished, although they then sat outside for an hour, killing time. 

We had a nice brunch. 

And a late lunch, of leftover Mexican, so didn't need dinner.
