Although I am British - I don't understand it myselfYes. It is very hard to explain to foreigners from non-cricketing nations that a match can go on for 5 days with breaks for lunch and tea ... and still end in a draw

I had a grasshopper or cricket on my garden the other night - sounded quite tropical out there!The only thing I know about cricket is they chirp at night in my backyard
We had a heavy shower yesterday - for about 10 minutes!
I was hoping for at least a couple of hours.
It usually rains when the school holidays begin so maybe next weekend it will start and finish in September.
That's my sort of cricket!!!!
Oh yes I forgot......
the birthday celebrations start here!
Hope you have a lovely weekend with the family, Carol!
That is my Brothers very favorite dish. Every time he comes to stay with me, he asks if I will make it. Would you share your recipe please? Yours looks amazing!
Good morning all, thankfully it's a bit overcast here today, but it's not going to last long.
I am going to paint my garden bench today - inspired by Mark's efforts on his shed.
I'm a messy painter so will probably end up with more on me than the bench.
I may do my picket fence too - depends of I've any paint left
Anyway hope you have all made a good start to Saturday and have a very enjoyable weekend.
Better go and find my old paint clothes and brushes.
Catch you all later!

Thank you Lyn
Lemon zest. Vanilla essence. Apricot jam. Milk . Eggs. Bread. Butter or margarine. Cinnamon and sugar. I butter the slices of bread and spread apricot jam on them. Cut them up into quarters. Throw them into the bowl. Then i mix about 500ml of milk 6 eggs the lemon zest, vanilla essence ( a capful), sugar and cinnamon together and pour the mixture over the bread. I push the bread pieces into the liquid mixture until they are all covered and more or less soaked it up. Sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the top. Squeeze some lemon juice also over the top . Put it into the oven and bake until it is done. Sorry no exact measurements as i generally cook by feel.[emoji6]
Lol. You sound like me. Good luck with the painting.Good morning all, thankfully it's a bit overcast here today, but it's not going to last long.
