"I was the 3rd fastest sprinter in my class circa 1977."

In a district Scout Sports day in 1957 (50th anniversary year) I came third in a scout race earning points for my troop. I still have the certificate.

But I was the only member of the troop of the right age for that race, and there were only three in the whole district. I was ten seconds behind the winner. But I won the hammer throw, the shot putt and the discus.

Today? It is too hot. The temperature in our house is 31.5 - outside? I have no idea. I'm not going out.

On Wednesday for a fortnight, my eldest daugher was going to house and pet sit for a family visiting relations in Italy flying from Luton.

It might be cancelled. Luton airport's runway has melted!

Thanks. I remember shepherds pie, good stuff there. What’s that other dish. Blood pudding? Never had that. Heard about it from ex gf

 

[oggbashan]

Blood pudding, normally called Black Pudding, is a normal part of a Full English Breakfast, but Americans don't usually like offal.

 

[LittleSwitchy]

Some of the English food sounds good. The little I’ve had was good. Benefits of having a gf from England. Cute little redhead. Loved her accent among other things about her
