This is an advertisement . JOLLY POSH FOODS (Sponsored by me)

British food has received a bad rap.  That might have been deserved in post World War II years  when all manner of foodstuffs were in short supply.  It is no longer the case.  ***


With that in mind I am pleased to introduce you to


 https://jollyposhfoods.com


Chicago based Jolly Posh Foods is run by a Londoner who sources only the best meats etc., and uses traditional Anglo/Scots recipes.

I like their British Bangers  (of many varieties), and their U.K./Irish type Back Bacon. 

JPF has expanded into making traditional U.K. Meat Pies, Pasties, Sausage Rolls etc., and Scottish Haggis

(There is no rule that obliges you to buy a Steak and Kidney Pie. My testimony is that it is great  - perhaps I was weaned on it!)

Do browse the website.  There is some Jolly Good grub there.

***   It  used to be the case that pub grub was reliable. 

Sadly the British Local  Pub is becoming a thing of the past as social patterns have changed. Scores are closed every month. For those that are still open caution is advised. Too many serve pre-cooked and frozen meals, bought from a wholesaler, and microwaved in the pub's kitchen.  Caveat Emptor.

By 12:30 the Vet phoned me with this shocking and unexpected news.  (see below)   How odd that a scan for a lesser issue should reveal the bad news.   I think that the scan was providential. I could have taken him home for what would have been his last two to three possible miserable days but I  decided to say goodbye to Zion there and then.  I stayed with him to the end at 2:00 p.m. I am in shock.  I am grateful for six fantastic years together.  I rejoice that he brought joy to so many people. His remains will be returned to me to be buried near my home, with a flowering shrub planted over them. Thanks for your care John Michael Povey Hello Michael,   I will show you the images when you arrive but essentially what we see on the CT is that he has multiple masses on his spleen and several in his lungs, additionally he has flui

Utterly Wonderful

  80 years equals family Fifty plus of us. My five remaining sibs and their spouses. Nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews. Cousins, second cousins, third cousins A joyful and relaxed family reunion. Super food. Great food for children with activities for them too, including face painting. This 80-year-old child wore a birthday coronet and insisted on having his face painted. A marvelous family reunion; and the greatest celebration of my four score years.
