I have two gear oilings today.
One:
A random bloke emailed me last week asking if I could do some extras-filming at fairly short notice. We had arranged for it to be tomorrow.
But this morning at around 9am, he messaged me again to ask if I could do today - as well as tomorrow - because one of his extras had called in with a covid-isolation crisis.
So I spent the day pretending to be a lady writing fraudulent cheques.
If, in several months, you see this, and you're like, "OMG that's Jen (!!)" please remember that I am only acting
Can't remember what tomorrow's episode is about (he did tell me, but I was having a whale of a time today that I have forgotten) ... but I'll only be "acting"* in that too.
*cos, actually, I am hopeless at real acting ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life.

Not at all.
The last time I ate porridge (made properly by my grandmother) I was probably 8 or 9 years old. I might have made it once or twice myself in my early teens (but I was much more into cornflakes by then) and then since I got to London, I discovered "instant" porridge.
That one plateful in the morning kept me going until well beyond lunchtime. I ended up cooking a squash mid-afternoon but I wasn't hugely hungry. Then I wasn't interested in food for the rest of the day, and ended up chucking out the remainder.
It was so good, I might have to do it again. |

Tragically, they were just small pieces of paper with cheque-shaped printing on the front

1/2 a mug of rolled oats or oatmeal. 1 mug of water or a bit more if you like thinner porridge.
If you make it in a microwave it needs to stand for a bit I think. If you make to much, you can reheat it next day and it is actually better.
My opinion.... |
You must have Celtic ancestry.. Bet you add salt too ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

Oooo! Helpful |
I boil the kettle for my morning coffee and porridge, saves sodding about with microwaves, which tend to create porridge art. 5 tablespoons of oats, teaspoon of powdered milk, teaspoon of sugar. Add hot water, stir, leave a couple of minutes, stir, eat. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you. Don't take it personally.

Excuse me, I also added salt in my original batch.

I prefer porridge made on the hob. As above, equal quants of milk, water and oats. Sometimes throw in a chopped up ripe banana for the last few minutes of cooking and it softens nicely.
A Scottish friend swears by long cooking time for porridge, overnight is optimal apparently! Don't think I'd want to clean that saucepan afterwards. ____________________ TG. |
