Inline skating......my friend Gaby from Zurich was world champion in 2000 and 2003. She's fearless on them......getting up to speeds of 50mph downhill. She can also skate backwards down a flight of steps. I've gone down a flight of steps backwards on a skateboard, well, when I say "on" a skateboard...

Arse! I picked up two really nice Iberico pork chops at Leech & Sons today. I had planned to do them (in a honey and gin marinade) with Parmentier potatoes... ...except I’ve just thrown the half cooked Parmentier potatoes all over the kitchen floor. >:( So it’s back to Steamed Anya potatoes with lo...
