Hello, Elle!
There is nothing to measure cards at ASDA.
So, I just go for small ones.
Our NHS website is very good indeed.
Good advice on it.
Why are you in the garden?
The athletics are on!
I think Seb was chancing it a bit for a boy's name?
I've never came across a Seb.
7, Well, "burro" is Spanish for donkey.
"it" is in your clue.
That gives "burrito" which is Mexican food, I think.
I have heard of it, but never tried it.

Good (if you like chilli), rusty! I thought that (or the plural, in fact) was more likely than the other ones Chambers came up with.

Yes, we must let these pass, in anticipation of ones from us in the future :)

Oops...sorry, guys....the last question mark wasn't meant to indicate a letter......it was there as a query!
I'm sorry for the confusion!


Hi, Rusty!
I forgot all about the Athletics!
Yes, despite your reminding me.......I STILL forgot about it!
Now, THAT was indeed a "senior moment"!
Hopefully, it will no doubt be showing as Highlights on BBC at some stage - I shall have to watch out for it!
Now, back to the clue......I would never have got that.
I didn't know that the Spanish for donkey was "burro" - and I've never heard of a burrito, let alone eaten one!
But I do know a "Seb"!
A friend has a three year old grandson of that name!
Speaking of burritos......I had best go and organise dinner....
Have you had yours?

Hello, Elle!
Yes, I had fish pie.
It was fine.
There were burros in Western films, that's how I know them.
And I had heard of burritos.
Are they not TexMex food?
I watched a bit of the athletics.
Mostly Nike athletes taking part.

I have just watched an old(ish) "Casualty."
I shall never get up to date!
I usually end up pressing the "Delete" button!

I am pretty sure I have seen discussion on here about Seb Coe in relation to drugs in athletics?
