Note to self:
Bank holiday + pleasant sunny weather + trip to large garden centre = not your best decision ever. Do not repeat.
I have never seen the place so busy--not even near xmas! I came away with a planter for my myrtle since it has outgrown its current home, bags of planting medium, a little cherry tomato plant, var black cherry, and a book containing 450 cookie recipes. I made one as soon as I returned seiz-me, just to try it out you understand... Raisin and pecan flapjack. It appealed because it contained maple syrup. The result, you ask, or not, as interests you? A tad sweet for my palate and not as chewy as I'd anticipated. However, I shall soon have a new oven to field test (and yes, I'm counting the days despite the mess and upheaval having my new kitchen installed will cause!) and so I imagine some adjustment will be made to the recipe until I strike the right balance.

This BH, I'll opt to sit in the garden and re-read 'Jolie Brise. A Tall ship's tale' by Robin Bryer, and call out things like, "watch yer luff, damn yer eyes!" :D
