    Maybe they're for making vodka rather than mash or chips.

    Did someone mention vodka?

    The hounds have had their final walk; I think we've mastered the art of balancing a 3 year old and a 14 year old with the aid of a spare lead around my waist to attach the older dog too to keep a hand spare. We just have to hope there is no cat interaction.

    Today the day and night was perfectly balanced. It's all down here for us til spring.

  • Seriously...the humble potato is more of a staple in Russia than for the Irish .....but tradition is tradition whatever one makes of it .....I just go with the flow  ....I personally can do without but I find myself drooling a few times a month when my BH makes her magnificent mashed spuds......even her step children succumb when they visit image

    Clari , a quick update .......come and have a quick shot .....my BH is awayimage
