Barbeque Beef Rib

I have been meaning to try some barbeque beef rib, but having tried and failed twice at different barbeque restaurants, I decided to make them myself.

I got a couple of beef ribs, slow poached for nearly 2 hours, and finished in the air fryer.   I was expecting the beef to shrink more, but it didn't, probably down to the good quality of the beef.

Next time, I will poach for longer, smear more sauce.  Otherwise, it was excellent, we were stuffed.

Cadw Wales

We joined Cadw this year for a change.  We already visited two large castles, Conwy and Beaumaris, on the same trip, I think it is a good start.

Wild's Bakery

Apparently Grandma Wild doesn't just bake biscuits, they also have bakery and sandwich shops, include the Salts Village Bakery.  We got a Fat Tyke, a loaf of sourdough, and a pasty.  They are acceptable.

Geriatric Xperias

The geriatric Sony Xperia had one too many drops.  I had the phone upside down, and heard this strange crackling noise, the screen was shattered.  RIP.

Energy Price Change

Nobody is looking forward to the upcoming price change.  Then Steve started celebrating his timely price fixed last year for 2 years.  Luckily I like lounging in a cold dark room,  but 75p a day of standing charge is a bit steep.

Extension Beware

When I looked at houses with extention,  I immediately assess their additional maintenance and their reduction of energy efficiency.   That maybe another reason why I like monopoly houses.
