Keeping us in suspense!

Sophie and I watched Destination X before work this morning, and for the first time, I was unsure of the destination, guessing it might have been Trieste in Italy. We couldn't see the end as we ran out of time and had to get ready for work!

I had a pleasant shift, and since Sara and Sheila were both on annual leave today, I managed to get all the messy box office return paperwork sorted out, scanned and put into online folders. It was a job I'd been meaning to do for ages, so that was a real bonus!

At 2pm, Keith picked me up and we went home to pootle about doing chores. I hoovered and cleaned the conservatory, which was a terrible mess with dead flies and cobwebs everywhere. I tidied up the throws on the sofa, and when Sophie arrived home, we both sat out there for a while to chat. It looked so much better!

We watched the last fifteen minutes of Destination X and discovered the programme ended without revealing the city where they were! We had to wait until 9pm to see it!

After dinner, we watched Masterchef, and we've added a few more terms to the list:

  • Showing off about travels
  • A bonbon
  • An ingredient cooked "three ways"
  • Scissor-cut noodles
  • Contestants crying - this featured heavily last year!
We liked the look of one recipe called chicken Khao Soi which we might attempt next weekend!

At 9pm, we tuned into Destination X and learned I was wrong. It was Venice, not Trieste. Ah well!
