So the recurring theme of your posts is that we will get through this - with large amounts of alcohol?
I can verify the truthfulness of this.
A decent cellar is a game-changer.
You were talking wine with the last bit right?

Well, I only keep wine in my cellar.

You should expand your horizons. Don't limit yourself. I've seen your GOM posts, there are people that deserve to be in your cellar.

I lack your collection of medieval instruments.

Great thread - this lockdown has seemed easier than the 2020 one, I guess because we're used to it and I'm fortunate enough that I work from home anyway.
The biggest bright side was that I was absolutely rammed with paperwork and a week ago was wondering how I was going to be able to get it done in amongst the field work that I do. I've now managed to clear about 30% of the backlog by not having to leave the house for the last five days.
I also get to hang out with the kids more during the day, because they're not at school.
I'm not a great cook, but I'm going to use the time to attempt to make a pumpkin soup this afternoon, and put in some chillis I grew this year, with the aim of "mistakenly" making it so spicy that no one else in my household can eat it, so I've got easy lunches lined up for the next week.
Hopefully once I finish a report I'm writing this afternoon, I'll be able to crack on with all "finishing" DIY jobs I've been putting off for ages.
Most of all, I'm greatful that 2021 is clearly the Warriors' year. Three games til the playoffs...

I lend them to mates with similar interests. Good wine that sort of thing.

@snowy do you have theme nights? Ya'know, Spanish inquisition inspired. Obviously that ones the surprise party go-to.

Sounds like a good idea. Hannibal night, Dexter night, etc.
Unfortunately everybody did know the Spanish inquisition was coming, in spite of Monty Python's efforts. They used to let you know months in advance so that you could shit yourself the whole time wondering when and what they were going to do to you.
Now that you mention it there are a few people that I could try that on.

I made Chocolate eclairs filled with a sambuca cream. They were yummy. Shoe ( I know, I know, but I prefer thinking it's spelled this way) pastry isn't all that hard to make, just need to be good at beating it..................
a few more dots....................

@hooroo outstanding work.
Smashed out a lemon souffle last night. Really tasty, but I had to pay way more attention than I normally do to making stuff. Pre-prepared everything in little bowls, it was some serious mise on place shit. Made life easy though, just adding pre-measured things together is easy cooking

Only really just feeling like lockdown has just started. I was one of the 'stranded ones' in Queenstown last week but my scheduled flight back on Friday still went ahead. Was getting a bit touch and go but could be stuck in a worse place.
I was having a few days off anyway and despite not being able to go to the skifields we had great fun in good weather. Lighting the fire outside each night for drinks and watching the stars.
Kept busy during the day with a bit of farmwork chasing sheep up in the snowline, some fencing and some yardwork foot-rotting the hoggets.
Expecting to be at home for the next couple of weeks in Welly so getting some little projects done and taking the dog for a run.
