I could survive on kabanossi if I had too, love the stuff.

The krakus they sell in Tesco's is my favorite.

I'm drinking a home made espresso martini and eating a peanut butter sandwich.

May have over-done the hot & spicy yesterday. I suspect my exhaust looks like a Japanese flag.

Yes. They were awful tbh. Very jelly and gristle like with a bacon-ish taste. I air fried them but they couldn't be improved. She happily chewed away on them. The other packaged pork stuff was nice and her pork kebabs were made from neck. A bit chewy but the marinade on them was lovely. My Son works in transport and knows a few eastern euro types. If they come to the house they always bring something for my Wife, cake normally. Must be something they do out there I suppose. It's a nice gesture. Mind you I use to take flowers to my Aunts when we went?

I think I deep fried the ones I had. I used to buy whole pig's heads from a butcher in Edinburgh, some years ago now.

I was deliberating about selling the Street Triple & buying a Z900RS whilst out on the pushbike.

Seriously underestimated just how fucking extreme a hot sauce was... Damn near ended up on the kitchen floor. Was tempted to gargle Sriracha to lessen the burn.

Probably should have paid heed to "Shock & Awe" on the label...

Working my way through the finishing touches to a funeral service for next week.

Had a Baptism meeting with a family who would like their 3 year old daughter to be Baptised end of October.

Sorted out a meeting with the tree surgeon looking at removing three dead elms, trimming a turkey oak that has grown well, but is now casting shadow into a bordering property. No need to do anything to the tree as it is healthy and no part of it is over the property, but we are good neighbours. If they assist with covering the cost, we will get the work done, as it only benefits them.

Sorted a technical issue with the livestream software that refused to work yesterday. Just as well we also record all services and so could upload that instead.

Getting ready for an interview next week Friday!!

Out for my lunch time stroll and spotted this off in the distance.

Too far to get a pic, but close enough to spot it wasn't a normal airliner.

Lived close to the Airbus place in Broughton nr Chester for a while, used to see the Beluga collecting wings quite a lot. They put on an air show every year too. Just about everyone in the local pub worked either there or Shotton steelworks.
