Morning all. Off out to the flea market at Les Sables, followed by lunch and an organic potager. Typically, for our day out it is dull and grey but I suspect not going to be wet.
Looking forward to the pics Busy. Happy anniversary Wonky. Not paper Joyce. None here except for some very vivid stripes on the landing which we are leaving to last to deal with..
Have a good day everyone - hope all aches and pains are better today.
Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.
"The price good men (and women) pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men (and women)."
I've got an elderly iPhone that I bought second-hand via Gumtree ... think I paid about £75 four or five years ago. I pay £9 a month for a SIM only contract with Virgin, send several texts and photos a day, make several calls a week and surf the web every day and post photos on here. I've never ever used my whole allowance.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Ob.....I could eat a Flemish stew off that floor......since I mentioned Ghent yesterday I can't forget my fond memories of being there as a teen in the 60s ......the most underrated beautiful city in Europe....sat on the bank of the river Leie eating Flemish stew with fries......

I'm with Obs, I think runner beans are horrible , tasteless things. I like French beans and baby broad beans though.

i grow them ( well,not runner beans) and eat them, but I don't have anything to do with cooking them.
Hubby cooks beans with coconut and butter. Yummy.
I think I've sent less than 10 text messages in my life.

Dacha - frozen beans, butter, pepper and dried coconut into a container covered by cling wrap and into microwave. Two or three minutes he thinks.
