It's an allergic reaction to something but can't pinpoint anything in particular which is frustrating. At least it was treated before turning into a full blown anaphylaxis. They were very on the ball. I think they've had some experience on the allergy front since we were last here!

I’m sitting in A&E looking at my pasty son on a gurney after a dose of adrenaline and IV steroids. Looks like it’s done the trick. Thank goodness for A&E! His heart rate kept dropping and went down to 36bpm when he lost consciousness but all looking much better now so just observations til midnight and then home for a VERY large whisky!! Me that is not him

That’s never gonna happen

I hope you have an outside khazi!

Got a lot of jobs piled up to do. The flat buying thing is still dragging on, supposed to be exchanging and completing today but more flies in the ointment mean blah blah blah snore. Going to bunk off Sunday afternoon regardless to go to the cinema cos although I think Tom Cruise in a complete prat I saw the pic of his motorcycle stunt and thought fair fucking play I’m going to watch that. My first thought was what a waste of a motorcycle!

Well you can rejoice you’ll no longer have to bury the bodies yourself.

Quick call a ‘Whaa’mbulance

Bruce, the temperamental one who flounced?

It's after 7pm, but too early for his ni-nights milk yet

I knew that was coming. Six took the wise route and said fuck all about until he got it and it appears is still saying fuck all so..

Without wanting to light the touch paper are you entering your reg correctly. I only ask cos I had the same thing, I was really annoyed. I know my no plates so I knew it wasn't that but my brain flipped two characters so......

Walking distances is very hard on the back. It's shocker how far you have to walk at airports. It shouldn't be a surprise the budget airlines are miles from the entrance but it's not something you think about until you're there and your back hurts and you realise you're only half way!

Let's have your first impressions then.

Very nice indeed. Rather sophisticated in fact.

How long have you had the hernia now Pete? Will be great to get it sorted out.

Good luck. I hope you get a soon date.

Why, you been a naughty boy?

Todays experimental kitchens Kettle cook is the ‘Seafood Boil’ thing they love in Southern America. This is a pic of what its supposed to look like - Mine obviously didn’t look the same because I wanted minimal ingredients so assembly is fast n easy, plus the pieces need to be small to ensure even cooking in a kettle. To start things off I’ve avoided anything in it’s shell as cooking seafood in a kettle is new to me, I wanted to be certain it was cooked through, so I went with raw king prawns because it’s easy to tell when they’re cooked. Every Spanish supermarket seems to have jars of cooked potatoes and corn on the cob and that’s perfect - speedy, no precooking potatoes or sweetcorn as in the American ‘recipes’ I looked at this sad chopping boards worth of ingredients and nearly stopped. I used only half of everything except the prawns and put a couple of very large dollops of butter in with Cajun spices before mixing it in the bag n squeezing the air out. First go 80 degrees for 20 mins to try and avoid overcooking the prawns, it wasn’t long enough. Back on at 90 for another 15mins. Now extremely hot. Up to the boil held at 90 degrees is definitely the temp needed. This is worth eating whether on the move or not, so tasty, I will have to apologise to my Texan friend. I’d have a squeeze of lemon with it next time. Doing it again I would just have more prawns and forget about the frankfurter because quality varies wildly and moving about you wouldn’t know if they were any good. Overall well worth the small effort it took. Needed a nice glass of cold crisp white to go with it though but heyho, who would have thought that would have been worthy of a glass of wine

You'd probably find it a bit nippy

So strange. I always thought you two had so much in common.
