I wear a lot of wool. Not set fire to the kitchen for years now. Cats and hens can dispose of evidence: they are thorough but slow. Denizen of #Wulferhampton. In real world North West England. Mostly happy.
Good morning #Wülferhampton!
3rd of December and behind today's Spudvent calendar window is
Cara!
A reliable, heavy-yielding maincrop potato with good disease resistance. Rounded, pink-skinned tubers with shallow eyes and floury white flesh. It is excellent for baking, roasting, and chipping.

And having gone on about eating dead animals, here is tonight's dinner.
Courgette, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and breadcrumbs.
It'll look dandy when it's cooked.

2nd of December, and behind today's Spudvent calendar window are Kestrel.
A personal favourite, these versatile little beauties are usually ready from mid-July, and can be used as new potatoes after first earlies, or stored like main crops. Beautiful purple eyes.

Unusually for me, not sleeping well.
On the plus side, I have just farted a near perfect rendition of the opening notes of 'Smoke on the Water'.
Unfortunately, only the cat witnessed this miracle of sphincter-music, and I'm not sure he fully appreciated what he heard.

A high-yielding, first-early potato variety known for its waxy, creamy-white flesh and good disease resistance.
A fine potato!

As the viva looms on Tuesday, Mrs Mac is becoming more a rabbit of negative euphoria.
I have Tuesday off in order to keep the cat away from the room where the viva is, and dispense tea.

I have asked Copilot to pull together a set of questions and am asking them.

Mrs Mac has her viva for her MRes on Tuesday. She is now both panicking and going in for displacement activities.
I got in and I had piles of folded clothes.
She is now looking, in detail, at the post grad regulations to guess what the viva may end up as.
Now in the Malpractice Regulations.

Still don't have the auction update on the fox mask, but it has already been invaluable.
Met daughter, she was a little upset about a mark she got.
Told her about the fox mask, and that she can't tell her mother.
Ye gods, it cheered her up!

I have accidentally (deliberately) put a bid in for a 1916 mounted fox mask. It is winning so far.
How do I:
a. Explain this to Mrs Mac
b. Convince her that I was sober when I did so (I was)
c. Work out where to put the chuffing thing.

Mrs Mac's sister is a little large.
Mrs Mac has suddenly started thinking about her sister's bra size.
I feel like I am with a feminine Withnail, uttering the female equivalent of, "Imagine the size of his balls."
