Being delivered tomorrow, looking forward to trying a new cooking method. I do the cooking, ex RN Officers Cook, left 48 years ago but you don't lose the skills.

Don't forget to bang the weevils out of the biscuits.

I've found a conversion calculator on line and bookmarked it. Converts oven temp and cooking time from oven to air fryer, and it's worked really well. 

It's   lovefoodnotcooking.com/air fryer calculator

You'll have to type it in yourself Bob, I haven't a clue how to do it like others do on here so that you can click straight on to it🥴

Isn't there a line in the film "Master and Commander " about "the lesser of two weevils" !

We had to throw out a few packets of unopened pasta last week. There were teeny little bugs in them. After a google search, my husband discovered that this is a known problem.

As a london plumber when I had to lift floorboards under the stairs,I used to whistle and the sacks of rice and flour used to run out on their own.

Our journey back to Yorkshire from Southampton on Saturday, via the M3, A34, A43 and M1, was filled with the lovely autumn colours of the trees, and produced exactly the same comment from both of us.

We said the same thing when we did exactly the same trip the Sunday before.

I somehow feel Brian should have posted that one...

Did my bit at the museum this morning and then got my seasonal Covid Booster. Came home for lunch and the afternoon had become really sunny and mild so a walk in the Country Park was called for. Some nice autumn colours there but don't think they are quite as vivid as previous years.

Home for tea and cake.

As there has been discussion about autumn here I have attached a few phone photos taken in the park this afternoon. Of course, a couple have come out upside down on this site...🤔😣

Have done Spring colour but never Autumn. Comes highly recommended 🙂

We did it in summer but autumn looks beautiful, worth a return visit.

Thanks for sharing that with us all.🤣

Disappointing news for us today. Bolton Council have given Peel Holdings permission to build a Ryder Cup golf course and 1036 houses on the the Hulton Estate at the bottom of our garden. Most of the land is currently farmland and we have lovely views of the the cattle and sheep in the fields. It will be sometime before building starts as the farmer will have to find somewhere else to go, or give up farming. I still don’t believe that we will get a Ryder Cup golf course in Bolton. As much as I love my home town, I suspect the the golf course will never happen here and it will just be more houses. We haven’t got the infrastructure for all this. We will just enjoy what we have for now.

Sorry to hear @Jennizor such a shame to loose that farmland.
