Idahoan Instant Mash, Lidl/Aldi cooked lentils in pouches, angel delight, curry / Dahl pouches, dates, tinned veg (already cooked, so dinner is ready sooner)+ tinned tomatoes and some herbs, rice noodles (ready a lot quicker than pasta). Microwave-able rice takes 2minutes on stove.
Chocolate custard powder and dried fruit.If you buy readymade hiking meals, I'd stick to the puddings, or totally avoid anything that has mash as a component.
Sainsbury's do powered milk, if you want it for breakfast

Don't really remember any sketchy bits on Ventoux, wide roads and mostly long straights between the hairpins. I'm a bit of a cautious descender around here in the narrow steep lanes, as there is always the chance of a car or cattle on a blind corner, but the fact that you can see the road in front of you for miles is amazing. I'd imagine it's the same for the Tourmalet, ,

I was given 4 stubby plants in September, and we planted them straight away. So there's now a 'wall' of them at back of the bed, and we planted roses in each gap but towards the front of the bed.
We'll give them a bit of a trim but happy for them to go a bit wild to start with. (Second photo is from April)

Visually some great cool bits last night, water tunnel scene especially, but also some awful (IMO) bits. They should have consulted the studio behind the cinematics from The Old Republic for dynamic fight scenes . The two speeders flying direct towards the tunnel, what happened to them? Then the 3rd Sister Vs airspeeder was so static. Can't wait for corridor crew to do an episode one them.
Loud whispering in a room with other people, loudly struggling with and killing someone in the same room, every one ignoring the trench coat clad hunchback. It's almost like all the staff are just CGI, and it's easier to render them just milling about. -

The AAA SR, IIRC if you are already on list it should update, but you probably need to request the grrl is added. (If she collects patches.)

I don't think it's hyperbolic to say Cavalli could have died there. The slow-mo makes me feel quite sick.
