So today has been a good day for many reasons, most of which are boring, but also because David Work and I got through to the final of the Michelsberg Debating Competition! It is a competition put on by Michelsberg bespoke tailors for young solicitors - three heats and a final on Monday. Although I was slightly thrown in the deep end (having only been asked to do it today due to unforeseen circumstances) it was a lot of fun. This house does believe that the Olympics are a waste of money (or so we convincingly argued!)
Anyway, I must have foreseen that there would be a hiccup in the day's plans, because before I left for work I put a chicken in the slow cooker along with some veg. It slowly bubbled away all day and, following Joe's epic journey from Manchester (stuck in the car for over 2 hours!) we returned home for poached chicken, vegetables and chipped potatoes. It was a lovely, simple, delicious supper - just what I needed - and thoroughly recommended!
