Again you say...............
Yep again......... except this time it isn't my legs no I have some sort of virus and God it has knocked me for six.I have had it off and on for around 6 weeks but since Monday  BAM it hit me hard......

Anyway on Monday (before I was sick) I decided to cook the family  some soup  (thank god I did because I managed to stretch it for 3 days and Kev said it got better each day ) ...

Now this is a new recipe so Monday night soup was a follow the recipe night.On Tuesday I added bacon pieces and on Wednesday night I put more stock and 2 lamb shanks,Kev really loved this one..
