Reflections on the Olympics, how I'd fare if cleaning was a sport, a doggedly determined video star, and a Heydayer who became passionate about a new sport in her 60s, in this week's newsletter
I haven't been brave enough to squash a whole chicken in it, but portions, pork chops & steak and sausages perfectly cooked. Stir fry veg and roasted veg and fish & chips. I spray a little oil on said food but hardly any. Easy to override set times too.
So many heart-stopping golden moments watching the Olympics but the memory of Alex Yee
and Tom Pidcock winning gold in the triathlon and mountain bike respectively will remain in my memory for a long time - neither should have won but they did, through sheer guts and determination. As for the women - just too many to mention here. .
Thank you Diane.
Must use that extractor hood hack! Maybe this weekend …..
Have a lovely weekend 🥰
Let us know how it goes! And you too ☺️
Me again Diane.
The games, aren't they just spectacular! Real life escapism
Have a good week . Lots of love xxx
Honestly I find it all so thrilling. Just watched the men's diving. It was nail biting! Xx
Totally ! 🥰
I invested in an air fryer, a relatively inexpensive one but adequate for my culinary skills 😱
Loving the extractor tip. I don't use mine that much now 🤣🤣🤣
Are you using the air fryer much? What are you finding it good for?

I am hungry now 🤣🤣
Thank you Diane I and my husband are with you watching the games xxx
I'll be really sad when they're over 🙁
Tho I'll definitely get a lot more done! 😂

Hear hear!
Great newsletter as always. Love the Seb Coe quote! x
Thanks! And me too ☺️ both of them!
I put the extractor fan grids in the dishwasher. Voila! Come out perfectly clean and no effort.
Even better if you can do that 👍🏼 mine don't fit in my dishwasher.
Oh what a brilliant idea! I'll try that next time mine needs doing. Thanks! 🤩
Used to do hurdles at school. Always been mesmerized by the pole vault. How on earth do you learn how to do it?!
