Made a very nice breakfast this morning, a variation on the baked eggs, for one.

Got a rectangular Ramekin out of the cupboard.
Sliced a piece of bacon into strips, put in ramekin cook for 1 minute in microwave

Add small tin of baked beans and stir. Some left over scalloped potato at one end and some cooked leftover beef sausage sliced. Microwave for 2 minutes.

Make a small depression in the beans, crack in 1 egg, place in air fryer for 6 minutes. Season and eat with toast. Fkn Yum.

My hubby was a photographer in his past live before he discovered his love of woodwork and making amazing furniture - still loves his camera though....

My Collingwood face masks arrived today, purchased from a place in LA, delivered via England.

5 masks, 2 layers of cloth which includes the pouch to fit a PM 2.5 filter of which they also sent 5.

Keep those for doing the shopping.

Went for my walk this morning, busier than it has been. As usual I wore the Buff around the neck and as soon as people come near I lift it up to cover my face.

Got a smile from a few maskless joggers when they saw me pull it up as they got close. One woman saw me and called out from the other side of the street to "wear a mask", in response I just lifted the buff over my face and pointed to it, she waved and toddled off. :P

I have no problems wearing a mask around people, I just think it's fkn stupid to wear it when I'm walking for exercise (therefore breathing hard) and there's no one within 50 metres of me.

You're allowed to not wear a mask when jogging.

Just yell back TWO THIRTY and keep jogging
