A Guernsey Gardener in 2025

Pulling out the stops...

15 June 2025 (Sunday)

A bit of a funny Sunday as we’d yet to record Sunday Chat, which we did late morning, though before that Richard fancied a cooked breakfast - he pulled out almost all the stops and did an absolute banger of one!  

The sausages were Lidl’s Vemondo Cumberland Veggie ones, and there was also grilled tomatoes, pitta, scrambled eggs and baked beans - If we’d had mushrooms, they would have been on the plate too!  It was bloody delish, and set us up for the day!

I finished editing A Week at the Plot, after breakfast, then we recorded Sunday Chat quite late in the morning.  After having a big breakfast, there was little need for lunch other than a mid-afternoon snack, so after a little house-keeping at my desk I went to the plot to water and do a few jobs.

A relatively relaxing afternoon, including for me a bath, and then Richard decided he’d make his Quick Soya Burgers for supper, and I said we had two baps we could use for them, and I made a salad.

We watched an intriguing programme on how organs (the instrument kind!) are being lost throughout the UK - with them either being saved (and most going to France) or just dumped… Organ Stops: Saving the King of Instruments, it’s well worth a watch.

Then we dived into Happy Families, though Richard fell asleep halfway through episode 5 so I pressed Stop, and we’ll pick up on it tomorrow.  Instead, I watched half an episode of Endeavour, which I’m again working my way through… it must be about the sixth time!  Undoubtedly there will be a seventh time… and an eighth… and a ninth…


Weather:  Cooler than yesterday by about 6°, though still warm in the sun.

Breakfast:  Richard’s Cooked Veggie Breakfast
Lunch:   Rice cake, yeast extract and peanut butter
Supper:   Quick Soya Burger in a Bap, lettuce and mixed salad of olives, cucumber, red onion and tomato

Hi Richard and Paul

Really enjoyed this little journal of your Sunday, will definitely try out the sausages …. Looked delicious!
As for soya burgers, I would love to try those …. Has Richard done a video on how to make them ?

Angela, I think these Lidl ones are now my favourite, or certainly near the top of the list - and they don't cost an arm and a leg AND are on 2 packs for £3.50 for a few months, so 12 sausages for £3.50! 😁 I had missed the link for the Soya Burgers in body copy, and his video of making these is now linked to in both the main text area and the lower 'Supper' area. 👍👍👍

Hi Paul and Richard, Your breakfast, lunch and dinner sound great! Right up my Alley, although I think I would be napping by mid after. Cheerio!!
