"It's outrageous that Labour plan to put VAT on private school fees!" No, it's outrageous that funding per pupil in state schools has gone down for years! #GeneralElection

Lamb Madras, mushroom pilau and the last of the batch of my own onion baji. Doesn't look like 5 hours of labour but was marvellous.
