Burton Albion v Torquay united
Saturday, March 17th, 20120-2 so far. Come on Torquay. I think that’s who we should be supporting…
UPDATE: finished 4-1 to mighty Torquay. Good game. Fine curling finish for the third right in front of us.
Good to see a match from the ground and the Torquay fans were in full voice.
In a pub now for the rugby which looks like it could have been someone’s house just last week. Or maybe in the 50′s anyway, complete with outside toilet.
Before and after shots of my bird
Monday, February 27th, 2012Blueberry cake
Tuesday, February 21st, 2012I have made this cake a few times now and can highly recommend it. Since it contains 3 punnets of blueberries it must be good for you too…
I stuck fairly rigidly to the recipe from the BBC below but use 2 punnets for the cake and one on top. Also, if you dust the blueberries for inside the cake in a bit of flour after washing them that should stop them all sinking to the bottom.
A magimix makes this cake a breeze to make.
Culinary bargain
Sunday, February 19th, 2012Years of trailing around hundreds of charity shops finally paid off yesterday.
In the British Heart Foundation in Durham there was the above set of le creuset cast iron pans hidden away.
It was quite a mission to carry them back to the car and one of the 6 plastic bags gave way but it was worth the effort.
We just had a very nice lunch at the Udberg senior household. I have finally gave in and updated our website with this post after a long absence from the site after much pestering…
