THE WEEK OF THE JACKET

10/11/2024

0 Comments

 
SUNDAY 10 This is a test page where I begin to experiment with photo import.  I choose to illustrate an oven-cooked full Irish which was a regular though infrequent occurrence at the land-house before we sold out for off grid.  Jean and I developed it at Avalon in 1994 when we did B+B in a room with a view. 

An identical breakfast can be made on board with the gas oven but is difficult to replicate at the land-flat.

But then, food is done differently on-grid and off-grid. I am into the morning porridge in both venues and both methods use bain-maries and maceration.  Cod liver oil capsules used to be a winter treat.  I now take them all the year round usually washed down with  Pentargon's famous coffee.   
Did I mention cardamom seed?
Did I mention shooting logs?
MONDAY11:- Stamford to order a jacket. I am shittin myself as this is being made by the bet tailor for 50 miles around and will probably cost more on ts own than my complete wardrobe on board and off board include footwear, but I made the decision. It will be ready for 'xmas' but not for Ireland.  I discovered that the wedding suit got in 2019 for asgeirs does not suit my needs to coin a phrase.I have not widened in five years but the suit was never wide enough for me and has never been worn. However the trousers is perfect and the new jacket is planned to be worn with it.  Later in this day I had a phone in with that stupid doctor and have nothing more to add to her quest for cholesterol 

TUESDAY12:-  Resting at flat and decluttering paper and sorting out finances ... I tried to contact Simon Proctor but his system requires a txt so I added to the previous two.  Not much point in actually going to the boat unless I can intercept him or predict him. 

WEDNESDAY:- Head scan scheduled for 16.45

THURSDAY:- this is a prediction if i were to catch the 8oc X4 on spec I would be in N.Hampton early enough to visit the boat with an option to return to the flat so if proctor did contact me I'd be there. I have options also I gotta put in train a way of getting another couple of bags of charcoal
