Seeing more, and more of my auld pals coming over from Musk’s hellhole. For my new pals, I’m known for my world class poached eggs, dug whispering, and being Fifes No 1 food & wine critic. Oh, and I sometimes join bits o’ wid together as well. Maisie, her names Maisie.

Treacle soda bread. I’m far too modest to give an opinion, but Maisie gave it the thumbs up, and she’s a fussy buggar.

If like me you have no patience, it’s the perfect bread to make. Love a treacle scone, so I’m looking forward to this.

Porto next week, so holiday hair cut, tidy the garden for winter, walk the dug, and might try and fit a bit baking in.

A ceasefire isn't a ceasefire until the fascists in Netanyahu's Cabinet tell him what to do.
