It's worryingly easy. I've moved jobs to car distance and I'm back to hardly walking at all, as everything is done as part of a car journey :-(

My two mile commute, which I couldn't drive if I wanted to, has been an absolute blessing.

My commute is only a mile but Glenn's point holds.

I think I watch a fair bit of telly (outside the cricket season say an hour of NFL plus five 40-minute boxed set episodes a week). Stats show this is nearer the *daily* average. How, for all love?

That's bugger all telly. I should watch nothing but BBC4 offerings, but I have a Midsomer Murders monkey on my back.

While checking a map for the location of the rheumatology clinic that I'm attending later today, I noticed the Cambridge Centre for Brain Repair. The only review of the place gives it one star.

I saw a thing about 3D printing tiny scaffolding to repair brains, giving cells somewhere to grow - maybe it was there.

Interesting article about some of the myths associated with the 1960s:

I enjoyed that GR, thank you. Coincidentally I listened to a pod about Chappaquiddick recently. That was as murky an event at anything the end of the sixties had to offer.

About This Thread

I often make notes when reading of things that I'd like to come back to later on, perhaps to su...

Hummus recipe:

Proper hummus is served with a drizzle of olive oil, rather than oil being a significant ingredient in its own right. This is what should go in it:

• 1½ cups cooked chickpeas or 1 (15-ounce) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed*
• 3 tablespoons tahini
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, mashed
• ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
• Approximately 2-4 tablespoons room-temperature water or aquafaba, or more if needed
• Optional garnishes: extra virgin olive oil, sumac or paprika, finely chopped parsley or other herbs, whole chickpeas

This particular recipe from thymeandtoast.com but it’s typical of the Middle Eastern way of making it.
