Remembered

Yay - I remembered my grats this Sunday. Been a week of using the earths natural resources - next door neighbour gave me a basket full of her eating apples which have now been stewed and enough to make up to ten large apple crumbles. There some blackberries in the freezer which I picked yonks ago from the brambles growing out of my privet hedge- so it’s going to be Apple and blackberry crumble!!! Will have to get a supply of custard in - my fave.

Have also been out sloe picking with friend and used a ladder to get to the juicy ones at the top of the bushes. Nearly two kilos which will make about three litres of sloe gin - Christmas presents this year sorted. 

Pleased that I’ve been able to spend time with younger daughter and taken her to two eating establishments - Alchemist and Chaophraya- particularly liked Chaophraya as it was a Thai restaurant with interesting cocktails as well. Happy I can help out with friends - boiler minding for lovely friend in Ireland, looking at second hand cars for charity worker friend, drug taking advice (?) for bridesmaid friend in London.
