Plant-based 'chilli con lenticchie'.
Comprised of ingredients already present in the house, baked beans, a 400g tin of green lentils, a red onion, portobello mushrooms, a carrot, half a red pepper, four cloves of garlic, half a green chilli, half a square of 80% cocoa chocolate, tomato puree and passata, I managed to make a chilli that looked very similar to a chilli con carne that I made when I are meat.
This tasted much better and lentils are only a fraction of the cost of beef mince

Bergen, 24th August 1983 and 24th December 2025

The 1983 photo was taken after an overnight bivouac on the slopes of Fløyfjellet during an InterRail trip around northern Europe with a university friend;
the 2025 photo marks a family Christmas getaway. I recall very little of Bergen other than I enjoyed my short time there but whatever changes have occurred, it's reaffirmed that it is a really lovely city.

L'Ombra della Sera, live in Genova, 29th March 2026

Playing dark prog, music inspired by the soundtracks to 'giallo' Italian horror TV miniseries and films.
I've seen them live before and really enjoyed their set.
See you in Genoa!
