I have twisted a muscle in my lower back making the bed
Hope that gets better soon.

Spent a nice hour or so in the local's beer garden, weather is just perfect, sunny, warm and a light breeze. Got the BBQ dusted down and meats defrosting for later. Probably be the last time this year.

Madras (hot) beef curry this evening: I got a big pack of low fat stewing beef from Lidl. Cooked low and slow for 3 hours on the hob with some stock from previous brisket joints. Then with a Patak's Madras cook-in-sauce plus a few seedless raisins. 4 portions so two for the freezer and stock to go back. Served with some oven chips. Plebby or what?
Beef was superb, just melt-in-the mouth. -
I've always had a weed free garden, so I don't what they all are.
You of course know how to tell the difference between a treasured plant and a weed?
Try pulling it out: If it's a treasured plant it'll come out easily, a weed will hang on for grim death.

One problem with legislating is that in any establishment's kitchen allergens of any kind can be present and can conceivably contaminate any foods being prepared. For a smaller outlet the answer is simply to say no food they serve is free of potential allergens. Caveat emptor.
As others have said I believe that overzealous cleanliness is the underlying cause in the rise of allergies.

Forecasters are saying an indian summer is on the way for the weekend and then in to next week.
I'll have to check that we've got enough charcoal for a BBQ on Sunday.
Probably be the last chance this year. -
I don't knowingly know any Jasons so I think I'm safe.

EU chiefs are “tearing their hair out” with Labour’s “mad” Brexit policy and regret forming an alliance with Jeremy Corbyn.
Brussels are stunned at Corbyn’s plans to negotiate a deal and then campaign to stay in the bloc and now feel they “made mistakes” by cozying up to lefty labour boss.
An EU source, close to Brexit negotiations, told the Times: “They want us to negotiate a ‘credible’ deal and then they will campaign against it in a referendum?
“That is mad. How can we negotiate with people like that?”
“Their divisions and magical thinking are as bad as anything the Conservatives produced — perhaps worse.”
It is believed that EU officials now regret relationships with Remainer Labour grandees like Sir Keir Starmer, shadow Brexit Secretary, former PM Tony Blair and Lord Mandleson.
They believe Sir Keir in particular has contributed to Brexit chaos in Westminster that impacted the bloc on getting a deal with Theresa May.
Serves the EU right. Corbyn has alienated just about everybody now.

As the original judge said, it wasn't for the court to get involved in politics.
Quite right. To do so would set a dangerous precident in that any parliamentary decision could be challenged in the courts just by an individual or organisation with sufficeint funds to push it through. Sooner or later a judge will overturn a parliamentary decision and then chaos ensues.

If I knew how to post a pic on here I would put it on, all I get with trying to add an image is to post a url whatever that is
I know the picture but it's not really appropriate.
URL = Uniform Resource Locator. It's the place where the picture is stored. Another way is to take a copy of the picture (Right click and save as) to your PC and then upload it as an attach.
Anyhow back to topic and I hope the supreme court will stamp on this nonsense. Courts are getting too involved in the mechanisms of government.

I've said don't know for now. I'd prefer there not to be a "deal" because apart from costing us a shedload of money that could be better spent elsewhere you just know that as we come to the end of the "deal" period then the stupidity about "crashing out" and "cliff edges" will just start up again and some clowns will want an extension so we never leave.

We've still go to settle down and watch the last two seasons. Too much going on at the moment.

unless Boris can find a way around it.
He could always go to jail to serve the country.
I hope that there's a cunning plan (Not the Baldrick kind
) otherwise why did the Tory lords not filibuster the Benn bill? -
Looks like it's goodbye shorts weather for you now
Forecast is to become warmer towards the weekend and more settled. Not quite over for the shorts yet.
-
Blimey! Had to put some jeans today to go to the supermarket. Really chilly. Hopefully the sun returns soon though the forecast is for changeable all week.
-
Just under 18 degrees here, hazy sun and breezy so it strikes quite cool. Sweatshirt again today.

Needed the heater on (low) in the car this morning. A bit chilly. Sunny periods.

Boris says he will refuse to ask the EU for an extension.
So no extension (extension can only be moved by governing party), no deal on the table (even if there were, parliament would as likely vote it down) but a no deal exit "stopped", but that is the very thing that will happen in the absence of any other developments. Seems MP's are about to get sucked down a very deep black hole.

But Zanu PF will still be running the show so will anything really change?

Autumn has arrived
Certainly has, but apart from the brief heat on the bank holidy it really started at the beginning of August. My younger sister always reckoned that the Autumnal storms started on her birthday (12th August).

Blooming chilly this morning, got a sweatshirt on for the first time in months.

Robert Mugabe, former dictator of Zimbabwe has died.
I hope Shinigami's got a nice hot seat for him.
The damage he inflicted on the people of Zimbabwe was unforgivable.

I have used Virgin's TV Go service to watch stuff out on the patio via WiFi but not any of the rest although the smart TV supports quite a few with specific apps.

You must be pissed.
Yep. Currently enjoying John Torrode's Asian adventure. I wonder where all the charity adverts will end up?
Only leaves food network but that is mainly American imports, though Man vs Food and Diners, drive-ins and Dives are both quite entertaining. Bearing in mind that this is on Freeview and not HD I really question now why we're taking the VM TV pack at all. Not interested in sport and as for films the few that we really want to watch can be downloads or DVDs.

goodbye to Good Food, one of the better lifestyle channels out there.
Pity. It's one of the few channels that we have on in the background and has some original series.

I can use it on Mr Wing when he turns over and takes all the blankets.
Having seen what it does to insects and tin foil I reckon it would smart at bit.
Has a lovely pump action to arm it.
I like holding it MiB style: "They check in, they don't check out"

Also so called celebrity prancing around like prats returns for its regular 2 hour bore fest on BBC.
Don't you mean an "Evening of family entertainment" aka complete crap.
No wonder streaming is on the rise.

Channel 5 are no longer focusing on the youth audience.
Is there such a thing? Most of the youths I see are glued to their iphones and don't even know what broadcast TV is.
