Anyway, back to the original topic. It seems to me that most avocados that we buy just never ripen. We often keep them for weeks but they remain hard and very bitter. Or you can buy soft ones. These are no good either as it appears that they are soft because they have been kept at a temperature below the ideal one during their journey from a distant land. Once over-chilled, the flesh becomes black and pretty nasty, as I am sure you know.

Coffee and guacamole on crisp quality toast is a breakfast alternative in our house. And this is one of the jugs we use in which to heat the full cream milk. Makes me hungry just writing about it!

I was thinking how big a two hundred and fifty tonne mountain of gold would be. Well, actually, it’s not that big at all. I am not sure how heavy gold is, very, I think, and certainly heavier than water. Fifty tonnes of water is fifty cubic metres, so if gold is twice as heavy as water then fifty tonnes would occupy twenty five cubic metres, which isn’t a large volume at all. So, two hundred and fifty tonnes would be a volume of 125 cubic metres. Five metres by five metres by five metres. It’s a pity I don’t have any in the cellar! I could keep a lot there.

Another of my favourite albums, this one is from 1973, I think. Jackson Browne: “For Everyman”

“A watched pot never boils.”
