After yesterday's events I'm staying put. In the front room actually with Monty, Mother and the final at Roland Garros. Nadal surely putting his compatriot in his place. The diminutive Ferrer (see below) though might have other more lofty ideas. But whatever the result I'm going to enjoy it.

No cooking today. The bacon joint will remain wrapped as we snack on cheese and ham and mackerel, salad crackers and walnut cake. Even great cooks need a day orf.

So after watching a vintage Columbo ITV1 (soon) I'll prepare a tray of nibbles to indulge in whilst Rafa plays David. Feel better just writing about it!
