Well, it’s been a roller coaster start to the year, a week of ups and downs. In no discernable order…
1. Picked up Bebel Gilberto’s 2nd album
2. I discovered that Robert Rankin writes drivel. I got about a third of the way through The Da-Da-De-Da-Da Code and gave up; it was shit!
3. Finally had time to get me a new haircut. I needed it! I was getting right wooly.
4. Got a flat tyre on my car, had to get the train to work for 2 days, then had to fork out loads to get it fixed. What a pain.
5. Set my mind to making a good vegan swiss roll. The sponge tends to crack as it has no egg in it. The results so far are quite… average.
So y’see, there it is, up down up down trundle along the middle. Just an average week in the life of me. Next week tree planting, ice skating, and a possible trip to Portsmouth. Let’s see how that goes eh? 
I think the vegan swiss roll looks great! I want some.
Thanks. It wasn’t bad, but a bit crumbly still. I want to make a good pliable sponge. Will need it if I’m going to perfect the vegan yule log. Then it can take the decoration properly.
Stay tuned as the experiments continue.
