Morning Messy, Fred and the rest of the crew. Lovely sunny day down here in Kent, 9C the high. Think I'll try and fit in a nice walk today.

Glad you had a pleasant evening with your sister, Messy. Hope you had a restful sleep and have a good day today.

That pile of paperwork is getting smaller by the day, Fred. Hope you don't have to make too many more phone calls to insurance companies, etc.

Have a good day everyone. ?

Started on the probate paperwork yesterday. Ended up spending about 2 hours on it but I broke the back of it and glad I did it now. My background is in finance so I'm quite comfortable with the process. The hardest part was setting up an on line account with Government Gateway. Anybody who's tried will probably know what I mean.

More all our yesterday's mate. When our parents had to eke out the weekly budget.

Mind you I find that what were considered the throw away cheap cuts 40 years ago can be quite expensive these days. Like pork belly, liver, kidneys and ribs.

It's years since I had roast stuffed hearts though.

I believe chicken feet are next up on the popularity list. Can't wait.!!!

I was walking through St John's Market in Liverpool many years ago. I think I may have been a teenager on a lunch break from my Saturday job in Littlewoods. One of the butcher's stalls had a pile of unidentifiable meat on a tray with a sign "Lamb's goolies. Delicious fried" Didn't really sell it to me then and still wouldn't now!

Good on you Fred, a tough gig under the circumstances, but you're facing things with a great attitude which I can only admire.

They are actually a delicacy all around the world. But I'm with you on this one Anj.

Yes Joe, what does he mean ' Even the Wirral' ? Best kept secret in Britain and I hope it stays that way.

Oh, I have a Government Gateway account, mate. Nightmare. It's as if they go out of their way to deter people from setting one up.

I still get cow tongue occasionally. Nice on a sandwich with a really hot local (Cornish) piccalilli.

Don't knock it until you've tried it Joe, even the eyes you can use, buy a couple, pop them in the fridge and they'll see you through the week.

Piccalilli??? Hope thats a sauce and not an animal part - I dont think cows have a Piccalilli that'd be a bull.

All this talk of food is making me hungry. Roast stuffed heart and sweetmeat butties for me.

Actually it's going to be a boring BLT on toasted cheese ciabatta.

Catch you later guys and gals.
