Overheard in the car:
Radio Announcer: “Apparently modern men have lost their DIY skills….”
Hay: “I can certainly agree with that!”
Chairman: “Here we go – you’re going to mention THAT SHELF again, aren’t you?.”
Hay: “It was upside down, for God’s sake!”
Chairman: “It was a small mistake and a long time ago. You can’t go trashing my entire DIY oeuvre on the basis of one upside-down shelf.”
Hay: “Yes I can.”
Overheard in the caravan:
Hay: “Is this what you call washing up?”
Chairman: “No – I’m planning to put the dishes in a pan of boiling water and develop a delicious stock.”
Overheard while watching Nigella:
Hay: “It’s not so much cooking as the assembly of expensive ingredients.”
The Chairman’s cooking tip of the week:
If you want some very low-priced arborio risotto rice, get yourself down to Lidl - £1.79 per kilo, which I guarantee is half what you could buy it for anywhere else (and a quarter of the price at any normal outlet). Bought 5 kilos yesterday, that should keep us going for a while.
I’ll leave you with a beautiful interpretation of Led Zep’s Battle of Evermore, by a lady called Amy McCann.

Buy British - those Oz DIY kits don't work in the northern hemisphere.
Ah...Nigella (sigh). Cooking? Ingredients? Don't recall...What's all that about?
Surely a shelf is just the same whatever way up it is?
Lidls, really ?
