Ben is excited that he's going out for a curry and much drinking tomorrow night. All this on a school night - it's like he's in his 20s again.

That's the one.

I hadn't boiled runner beans for many years until today.

Am not sure if the water should naturally have turned fawn?

It wasn't as though I hadn't washed all the mud off them.

Ben drank a lot and was out til 2.30am. He wasn't that reckless in his 20s!

Feeling quite excited about today's dinner.

I've gone for a sweetheart rather than a savoy.

Ben spent far too long building a flat pack chest of drawers earlier.

Chip's spent a large chunk of Saturday night defrosting the freezer with a hair dryer and a spatula.

You own a spatula now?

Ben is going to head out in a bit to buy a variety of tomatoes to make a tomato sauce with.

What variety, are these special tomatoes

Did you collect them from washing lines?

On my way back from T20 finals in Birmingham. Got interviewed by Devon Malcolm and it appeared on the stadium big screen. Nice guy unlike Freddie Flintoff who came over as a complete cock!

Found out today that one of the parentals is moving to about a 20 minute drive from me. That's a bit close.

No, nothing too special, just plum, beefsteak and some tinned ones.
