No.... I have not taken up welding.....

......this is a xmas present given to us by Mrs. M. for caramelising sugar on desert toppings - easier to use than the grill - and works wonderfully.

It has been a busy day in the house - and no chance to hit the gym. My IT skills are a bit better than Mr. M.'s - so have been his secretary for the day and putting together and tidying up a Power Point presentation for him, for work.

Am again behind with comments - but will endeavour to catch up tomorrow (after the gym). Can't wait to try out the new swimming goggles that I bought (contact lenses here).
