    Ham's simmering away, flat smells lush. Guests arrive about lunchtime nearly chore free

    I think the thing I miss most about living in the pubs is the ice machine. I'm a big believer in the bags of ice from the shops. Aldi's super ice is this years thing for the larger ice cube conisseur

    The bottom shelf in the cider cupboard (a load of bottles of one of last years batches of sparkling cider) has the nicest cider We've ever made on it. I think it was heavy on the aforementioned Fuji Apples. A natural aweetness survived the yeast and we've made a Medium Dry thing of wonder.

    Week off as of now for me. Xmas party tomorrow. One parcel to post tomorrow to the neice and nephews. Other than that just waiting for deliveries in the post. Off to the outlaws for Christmas day so no cooking for me except that I'll be doing a mustard glazed ham as ever for Xmas Eve when we also crack open our first still cider of this years batch. Ham and cider on Xmas eve has become my favourite bit.

    In that first batch we still have 3 teams that have beaten us this year (Ok, Everton was in the cup but the point still stands - and Dyche is doing what he does to good effect for them they'd be in the top half without the points deduction) so far from easy games at Goodison or against Newcastle or the double header against Man Utd , and hopefully the FA Cup to contend with aswell

    No he can't

    This is totally normal behaviour sne it's the fish which upsets the pitchfork waving locals

    yeah good to see Ramsey and Moreno back. Nice for Zaniolo to get the goal he needed and so obviously wanted.

    The Driver.

    I got all excited for the Newcastle and Liverpool games. So I'll temper it a little bit for these next two. I think they're all the obvious competition for the top 4 so it would be nice to think we can mix it with the very top sides by taking at least a point from one of them. I think we can beat them both but I'm not sure we will. As others have said no Rodri and no Grealish, No DeBruyne it doesn't tip the scales in our favour but you'd rather it than not. I'll find somewhere with the match on later but I'm mentally prepared to lose the next two and still remain happy/upbeat about it all. Anything more is a real bonus. My Uncle took me to my first match at Maine Road so I've always had an affinity for City and it's my most watched fixture over the years. I always remember the banner wishing us luck that wound up my uncle the year we were pushing Manyoo for the title. They weren't always oil rich etc etc But I think the pressure is off us in the next two games. No one expects us to win either of them. Except Unai perhaps.

    Nothing mutually exclusive about it being true that there's a player in there who could yet still show us what a decent player he is while at the same time it's true that he's been underwhelming and that his performance in the first half against Bournemouth was dreadful.

    Duran hit the post, and Digne's marginal offside to disallow Carlos's redemption goal after the wayward pass that started the trouble suggest we weren't that far off taking all 3 points but in reality a great header from Watkins salvages a point. We really have to stop gifting chances with wayward passing around at the back. Not as bad as the one against Warsaw the other night but the same result. And this one arguably cost us the win. Ref was inconsistant. I didn't see the first yellow for either of them but Semenyo really should have walked before half time and Kluivert was lucky not to pick up a second yellow too I thought. Martinez made some great saves to keep us in it.

    FA cup is the holy grail

    A home win? I think the answer is no
