Anyway, you have to look for the positives in any situation, and the positive to the current cold snap is that I can turn the fridge off and keep the food in the gas locker.

Last time I used a gas locker for anything other than gas was in 2005 when my little whippet cross hound died on my lap in the boat and I put her rigid corpse in there to prevent foxes taking it. Strange how inflexible it was. No sign of life so I don't think she minded the cold.

Lambuff. I thought you were probably from south of the river.
My first offspring unit was born in Lambeth. Loughborough Junction to be exact 200m from Coldharbour lane in a bathroom above a shop.
How the mighty have fallen !

I normally leave the jar angled on the stove overnight to drain the last of the dregs into the bottom corner.

Biggest potato in Finland found from our village: Mäkelän perunatilalla Himangalla nostettiin viime viikolla pellosta valtava peruna. 1,216-kiloinen Colomba-lajikkeen edustaja tuli päivänvaloon ruokaperunan syysnostoissa viime viikolla. – Työntekijä otti sen talteen nostokoneen päällä. Ei meillä silloin ollut mitään ajatusta, että se olisi joku ennätysperuna, kertoo vanhempiensa kanssa perunatilaa pyörittävä Kimmo Mäkelä. Peruna tuotiin pakkaamolle, missä se punnittiin. Komistus seisoi muutaman päivän pöydällä ihasteltavana. Sitten tilan työntekijä Antti Kangas löysi sosiaalisesta mediasta jutun vähän yli kilon painavasta perunasta, jonka kehuttiin olevan Suomen suurimpia. – Totesimme, että onhan meillä pöydällä paljon isompi! Kahvitunnilla googlailimme ja löysimme netistä Suomen Jättikasvisyhdistyksen, kertoo Mäkelä. Jättikasvisyhdistykselle toimitettiin perunasta ja sen punnituksesta valokuvia ja videota, ja yhdistys vahvisti kyseessä olevan uuden Suomen ennätyksen perunan painossa. Ennätysperuna pakattiin muovikelmuun ja pehmusteisiin ja lähetettiin Mäntsälään lauantaina järjestettäviin jättikasvisten SM-kilpailuihin ja näyttelyyn.

How very demeaning for something you purport to love so much x
