Beets

These are no more; they were cooked, peeled, chopped, mixed into a serious salad and unmercifully chomped. An eventful hour or so which they had no time to savour. Unlike us.

Just back from the pub, so posting a day late but that's the Friday night way of things. It was pretty good. All of us there, apart from MrA, are off to Dublin on Sunday for a few days. Should be a blast, certainly hope so. Some chat tonight about where we're going to watch the Scotland/Germany match on Sunday night; we'll be 6 Scots, 6 Germans and a neutral. Of course a fair few on both sides may be completely disinterested. And by half-time that may account for the entire company!

Tip of the day: if you're going to add beetroot to a salad try not to drop the lot on the kitchen floor. Unless you like a purple floor!
