And so it goes...

Had an early start this morning at work, so I had to be at the gym before seven. Which is probably why I ended up running a full day workshop in my nice Austin Read suit and my View From cross-trainers. Ah well, at least I got off to a quick start.

Gym session was quite good fun, and I'm back up over 390 calories - 400 tomorrow? We'll see.

Food today was porridge, home made Scotch broth, and chicken curry with a low fat sauce, lots of veg and brown rice. I did weaken and have a couple of tuna sandwiches from the buffet at lunch time, but all in all not too bad.

What's Scotch broth?

Soup - usually made with split peas, lentil and barley mix, mutton, and as many vegetables as you feel like lobbing in - carrots, leeks, onions and turnips for a start. I'm fond of adding potato, but that's my Irish heritage coming out.

It's a staple for Hogmanay, along with Steak Pie, and it was one of the two soups my mum made on alternate Sundays, ham and lentil being the other.
