    Sweet porridge😝
    I like mine salty and soupy. Mostly water with a tiny drop of milk and a handful of mixed seeds. I think that might be the recipe for gruel😒
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    B*gger..... :D

    I've always seen it spelled as boak. Maybe I'm secretly from.... the Dark Side... :o

    Not salty @B3. I usually make it mainly with water and just a little milk [the red stuff] so I'm treating myself  ;)
    My Dad had it with the full fat milk [and some cream!] and sugar. He was a Londoner, but maybe was succumbing to the bad Scottish diet that existed at that time  ;)

    I experienced one problem with social distancing in my garden yesterday.  My elderly neighbour is somewhat hard of hearing but was standing in the middle of his garden when our conversation started.  He started moving towards the fence, so I kept moving backwards :D The problem was that he had difficulty hearing me from a safe distance.  We did manage.

    Loathe porridge but love oats in biscuits, bread, crumble........

    No chatting to our neighbour over the fence - he was out there yesterday with his big rotavator wearing boots, knickers and ear defenders!  

    RTBC?  It's mild and dry and OH is happy playing with his lawnmower and we are both well and not bored.

    Black, every time.  Not standard Y front shape and not boxers.  Not tight hence knickers.   Not getting any closer if you don't mind.
