Today, as every Friday, cod, chips and baked beans.

Tomorrow. Whatever DD and I fit in between two theatre visits and definitely Italian cinchetti in evening, as hotel does an excellent line in it.

Sunday, roast dinner at pub after we get back from London.

Monday. Family coming, so I'm cooking Easter roast lamb.

Plus choccie. Of course. And hot cross buns.
