Looking forward to a Sunday roast made by Sophie. Roast pork plus crackling, roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, roast sprouts with bacon, glazed carrots, and pork, sage and onion stuffing. Followed by jam rolly-polly. I don’t deserve a such a great girlfriend.
Wow it’s windy tonight!
It’s Safer Internt Day today. So remember kids, stay safe out there.
