Greetings to all our marvellous Kitcheners.
Here we are again
Caring as can be
All good pals and
Jolly good company.
Buffet is ready and Champagne is nicely chilled.
THANK YOU for the comfort you have brought into my life. You are all extra special people. 
Good afternoon, Soop and lovely Kitchen people, fingers crossed 🤞 this pist will behave itself. Recently when I click onto Soop's Kitchen on my phone, the pages jump about a bit, not sure what's happening. Great to catch up on all your weekend news, and lovely to see Urms and Baggs. 👋 👋
So sorry to hear about your exercise bike Soop, hopefully you can get something more suitable. DH bought one recently, he can't walk very far but he can manage a wee while on the bike if he is not too short of breath with his COPD.
Good luck to Scapa, Brook and Grandmabatty, and all Grans with childcare this week. Brook, I remember DGS1 and DGD winding each other up, keeping the peace was tricky at times. Grandmabatty, do your wee boys play well together?
I hope MrC's appointment goes well today. DH has had his pre assessment for ' polyp removal, he's been waiting since before the pandemic!
Blossoming, MrB is a star 🌟, your meal sounds great!
Ladyleftfieldlover, your strange dinner sounds very tasty too, I'm always impressed by your desserts. My standby is Eton Mess, I'm really more of a cheeseboard person.
SueD and Jaxjacky, glad to hear your results are fine. I've just got my appointment in for breast screening.
We had a great day out with DS1, DDIL1, GS1 and DGD on Saturday at the Ayr Festival of Flight. We saw spitfires, typhoon, gazelles ( helicopters flying in formation) and the Red Arrows were a magnificent finale! The weather was warm, if a bit cloudy, but the rain stayed away until later in the evening.
I'll try to attach some photos, but this is where everything disappeared on previous attempts ...🤞🤞🤞
SueDonim My husband's favourite Indian ready meal is M&S Tikka. He always treats himself to one on Sunday evenings. I shall have salmon, oat biscuits, nuts and dates. Sundays are are free and easy with minimum of washing up. Suits me fine. Later, it's G&T for me and a dram or two for Mr Soop. 
Grandmabatty^ is, in my humble opinion, *super human. 
TOYA. I shall be with you again tomorrow. Take good care of yourselves. 
‘Evening All’
It’s been roasting hot here in south Manchester this afternoon but the sun went down an hour ago and we actually have a properly cool breeze now. I’d forgotten what they were like! I’m the most comfortable I’ve been for several nights and we won’t need the fan on, just the windows open to sleep I think.
Hurrah! 😊
I even think it might RAIN tonight .....
I’ve had to have a lie down in a darkened room after reading your post, GMbatty! I don’t think I could have done all that when I was young, let alone nowadays.
The offer of sourdough starter is always there, Brook (and anyone else) provided I don’t kill it off. It survives on benign neglect. I leave it in the fridge for weeks and weeks at a time then suddenly think ‘Oh no, I haven’t fed it, it will be dead of starvation by now,’ but it always comes back to life.
Is Neine on her holidays, I wonder?
I hate having to return things, Soop but sometimes needs must. I hope you can find something better suited to you.
It’s been sultry and mostly overcast today and a few degrees cooler than yesterday. It was hot overnight, though. We met up with dd and the little ones for coffee this afternoon, then did a bit of shopping in Aldi. When we were back home I did some work in the garden, mainly potting up winter pansies and violas and tidying some other containers and general tasks while Dh put screen wash into his car and checked the tyres on mine.
We’re indulging in an M&S Indian ready meal tonight then I’ll be doing some internet sleuthing for curtain fabric and stage containers. Exciting!
TOYA. Xx
