Manchester fun

 

Chicken waffle for breakfast

Japanese iced beer, not recommended

Azul

Azul winner!

Chicken and chorizo chouder

 I made this for dinner last Thursday, yum!

We made it!

 After dropping the kids and the dog off at my dad's we headed straight to Manchester for the Cure gig.  For a journey that should have taken 2h45, we ended up being in the car for 6h30! There was a closure to one whole junction due to a lorry fire, multiple other collisions and a lorry crossing the central reservation!  FFS!  But we made it with 10sec to spare.

Hmm...

We're supposed to be going camping on Thursday, coming back on Sunday.  We may need to rethink this idea! 

We're off to see the Cure tomorrow

 All the way up in Manchester.  Dropping the kids and dog off at my Dad's then heading up to MAnchester for a couple of nights.

Lamb Casserole

 I made this yesterday.  A delicious lamb casserole.  It turned out pretty well considering I only had a little over an hour to cook it.

Wildlife photographer of the year

 I disturbed a Heron this mornings dog walk and tried to take a photo as it flew away

Character death

 One of our characters died last night.  Oops!  I nearly did too!  It was a fun session though.

Waitrose soup update

 No more chunks, back to thin strands.  I reckon someone was fired over that!

Early birthday present

 We tried out one of my birthday presents early yesterday.  We cooked steak and lobster on a hot rock.  Not bad!
