Holiday

Holiday

Well Curly is having a week away from the Corner Shop, and my what plans Mrs. Curly has for me! I guess at last we will make some real inroads into the massed piles of toys and clothes that the kids garnered at Christmas, I can see me driving many miles to Middlefields and back again as we set about removing anything that is more than six months old. Storage space is becoming a huge problem as relatives become far too generous at birthdays and Christmas.

I spent a large part of today researching further into the history of South Shields and adding more into the website (see the South Shields history page), I was keen to find sources on the internet dealing with the Yemeni riots at the Mill Dam in 1930's. The history page is likely to grow and grow, and will probably be split into separate pages for different time periods.

Recipes

Picked up some nice pork fillets at the supermarket today (nice and cheap) and Mrs. Curly would like me to do the cooking tomorrow, she'd prefer a recipe with a little more "excitement" to it, so being a bit dumfounded, I headed to Recipe Source, one of my favourite online reference books for cooking. I am a bit of a gourmet given the right encouragement, so we've decided on a dish with apples and cider, let you all know how it went after we've eaten it!

Will it snow?

I know that the children would love it if the forecast comes good for an overnight snowfall, but somehow I think we'll only suffer a bit of sleet on the North-East coast, yet again they'll have to miss out. The Met. Office has issued an advanced weather warning of snow, but how often are they wrong?
