DUMPLINGS AND LIGHTS

It is Valentine today Helen made me a card with a piece of white card she had and a black pen it is priceless I will keep it she wrote some very nice things on it we have been together since 2007 a whole nine years ,  lasting longer than a lot of marriages i know that there was loads of people that would not have given us nine months so to all the none believers out there you know who you are  HA , HA  fcuking HA .

We Loaded the slow cooker just after midday with a large packet of diced lamb then two lamb shanks threw in some diced onions and mixed vegetables we will have it later tonight with mashed potatoes Yorkshire puddings and dumplings no red wine to pour in never mind .

Put up fifty white bulbed solar lights around the top of decking railings they only  cost £9.99 I nailed them in place using wiring clips hopefully they will be good for a few years .

It started to snow late in the afternoon  i doubt  very much that it will settle if it does i would have to make the choice either drive to work or stay at home .

Watching -  "Life" film about the time photographer Dennis Stock spent photographing James Dean  and "20.000 days on Earth" .
