.......just to pick at..........

Every so often the Boss buys one of these.......a gammon joint.......and she roasts it in the oven. It's meant to be for cold cuts and sandwiches........but it hardly ever lasts long enough because neither the Boss or the Daughter.....or the Son and Heir if he's here..can resist........they cut chunks off......and pull off the crackling.......

I hardly ever get any...........this one has only been out of the oven about an hour.....and it's already been mauled!.......and you'll notice it's the best bits that have been nabbed......the crackling and the outside layer.

Busy day at work.....missed hebs totally..........four lessons taught....lessons for next week planned and equipment ordered..........another pile of paper work tackled.

Steak and salad for dinner..........watched "After Earth"...terrible film................didn't get it at all........if it was meant to be an adventure/action film...... failed........if it was meant to be a film to make us think about what we're doing to the planet.............failed...........if it was meant to be uplifting and about how adaptable humans are............failed.........none of it made sense....several times the lad was dragged off by....and I quote....."animals on earth have evolved to kill humans".......and he wasn't killed............. a monster that could only find it's victims if they were afraid so it could smell their fear.......apparently through several metres of rock.......yet in flash back it couldn't smell the scared lad through a sheet of glass.........animals chasing the lad hell bent on eating him........but they wouldn't follow him into six inches of water...........climbing up an erupting volcano........a rescue beacon that wouldn't fire through a layer of cloud.....but from the top of the volcano fired several hundred miles out into space and sent a signal millions of miles away.........I could go on but I'm losing the will to live.

So......one more day until the long weekend......I think I'm off for an early night.

Das vidanya moy padruga.
