The kids love it but they invariably put too much topping on and end up with a soggy pizza.

Just enough room
We had a dinner party on Saturday so we cooked the Ottolenghi twice cooked baby chicken again. We only just managed to squeeze the 6 poussin in. Near disaster too, we accidently poured the stock / marinade down the drain so we had to make a second batch.

Happiest day in a while
The base music in my local pub is terrible. It's a mix of country and western and songs from before 1970. I no longer carry change around with me so I can never change the music. The jukebox has been upgraded and can now be operated by an app! I tested it out yesterday and managed to get some Iron Maiden on without the landlord noticing! I cut my music choices with some select favourites from some of the older locals so as not to make John suspicious.
Not quite as fast as I thought...
My swim speeds may need to be corrected!
My watch has a 3 second count down before it starts the timer. So you can probably take 2-2.5 seconds off each of the first laps.

Game tomorrow
My club tried to get a friendly fixture this weekend but there wasn't enough interest. I think the older players are saving themselves for a vets cup fixture in a few weeks time. A local village side contacted me a couple of days ago to say that they were short and wanted to know if I was available. I checked with April and she said I could play.
Fastest 25m swim
17.9s, beating the previous record by 0.2s back in September. Do I need to start recording in 100th or 1000th of a second?
