June 19th lunchbox










MY lunchbox is well into the World Cup... here it is last night watching the South Korea v France game.

I was in the kitchen at the time making it a half time snack!




BREAKFAST: Was out running at 6.40am (middle aged crisis and all that!) so really enjoyed my bowl of branflakes with semi-skimmed cold milk.

THE Walk To Work.
IT was drizzling as I left for work with my trusty umbrella for company. So it was down the lengendary River Taff Trial, which as you should all know by now leads into the centre of the Welsh capital Cardiff, or if you are Welsh speaking Caerdydd.
Quite a few cyclists whizzed past and a great many dogs too were enjoying an early walk.
Only a few ducks were on the River Taff below.

LUNCHBOX
4 salmon sandwiches (tinned variety) with a hint of lemon juice on granary bread.
1 apple, satsuma, plum and banana.


To be honest I don't think that hat is really you.

Sandwiches went first, then all that fruit...

RANDOM THOUGHT

2100: In the biggest land deal in history China buys Alaska off America for zillions of dollars. US cannot complain as it bought it for peanuts off the Russians in the 19th century... nice bit of business all round.
To Ann Williamson of Ulster: Isabella is doing just great. She now weighs, approaching 10lbs, and has discovered the delights of smiling... enjoy the ballet this week

Hi Peter.

Yes you are right (I think) because there is a place called Wales somewhere in Alaska.

I think China should buy Wales too (the country) and call it Little China in Europe. Could be a good deal for all the residents of Wales.

Have a tremendous evening

May 24th lunchbox

BREAKFAST: Was in the gym at 6.44am this morning.... first time in a month. Returned to have a swell bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed milk. THE WALK to WORK THE rain and wind tested by umbrella handing skills to the limit this morning. Down the Taff Trail and the home of Glamorgan County Cricket Club, Sophia Gardens, was looking particularly sad this morning. A cyclist waved as she passed me on the trail, turned out to be work colleague Anna Morrell . She later explained how she dreads passing pedestrians on the trail sporting i-Pods... good to get a cyclist perspective for a change! THE lunchbox: 1 plum 1 organic banana. 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of Chocolate Crunch made by Plugs of Trumpton PLEASE don't panic it's only a fire drill! Was feeling rather hungry this morning on the account of being all macho and going to the gym at such an early hour. Chocolate Crunch went first, followed by the banana and then t...

A podcast on the Welsh Forgetter of the Year. TO HEAR THE BARDS in ACTION CLICK HERE, DIOLCH! BREAKFAST: Very good bowl of Branflakes THE WALK to WORK. SUN was radiating as I ambled down what was a POSTCARDESQUE River Taff Trail this morning. Was i-Podless so had the full symphony of bird song, interspersed with the chimes of the Clock Tower of Cardiff Castle. THE LUNCHBOX 4 salmon sandwiches(tinned variety)with a hint of lemon juice. 1 plum 1 banana 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt. 2 Chocolate digestive biscuits. TRUST ME MY WIFE IS A MAGISTRATE. Biscuits went early, followed by the fruit then the sandwiches just before midday. Saving the yoghurt until later RANDOM THOUGHT 2021: THE opening of the first TESCO UNIVERSITY, where students are schooled in Tescology, is delayed after members of the ANTI-TESCO league chain themselves to supermarket trollies in the offices of the Vice-Chancellor, located at the end of the Frozen Food aisle of the new campus

BREAKFAST: Marvellous bowl of Cornflakes with cold semi-skimmed milk. The Walk to Work. Sun was really trying to break through (fair play), but even with clear blue skies there was the odd drop of rain... well that's the UK for you! Down the Taff Trial into the centre of Cardiff and it was cyclist mania this morning. And at last more on the wildlife front, noted two fierce looking ravens foraging for food on the river bank, as well as quite a few chilled out ducks on the River Taff below. The immaculate groomed white Husky passed me with his owner. LUNCHBOX... 1 banana 1 plum 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of coconut cake made by Plugs of Trumpton. THIS oven could do with a good clean! Went for the cake first (and why not!), followed by the banana and then the plum. Sandwiches were rapidly demolished just before midday. Yoghurt will go shortly.
