Fell off bicycle today

Wobbled off and fell sprawling onto the pavement on Kingston Bridge.  I'd started off, then veered to the left, hit a 1" ledge and lost it!
How embarrassing, but only a grazed knee! 
Got back on the bike and peddled home.  Had a cup of tea.

Beans, beans, beans!

Allotment beans!   Thankyou to Adrian.
(Don't worry about the brown/scarred parts - just beauty failings, not flavour failings!)  
My first Cookery 'How To' blog! 
Top and tail, then wash ....
 Cut the beans small
 Put in boiling water for 3 mins
Drain and pour over COLD water
 Drain the lovely green part-cooked beans
Bag, bag, bag ...
Finish and freeze!
Pop in freezer without any labels!  Too lazy for that, anyway got to do the washing up!

Nice day outside, sun shining although it doesn't feel very summery.

Guernsey days

Lovely few days in Guernsey (not the weather though!)  Doing Granny and Gpa duties.  Time on the beach building sand castles ,a bus journey to Town and then Castle Cornet and the loud bang of the Noon day Gun.
All went well ............ here's the bathtime pics
