I didn’t want the day to pass without mentioning the sad death of Keith Floyd. Keith Floyd’s Floyd on France was the first recipe book I ever bought (and I own a few!) and I think his TV programme which accompanied the book was probably the first cookery programme I ever watched. To me his was an inspiration, a proper cook who always had a nice glass of wine to hand and gave the impression of cooking by feel, with a splash and a dash of this and that, rather than confining himself to strict measurements. He clearly loved food and absolutely adored what he did. Despite his splash and dash approach his recipes are always very clear, to the point and easy-to-follow, avoiding the wordy waffle you get in some cookbooks. I still remember making his unbelievably delicious pate de truites for the first dinner I cooked my parents in my first flat- a layered pate of trout and salmon with Moselle wine, fragrant fresh herbs like chervil and parsley, eggs and cream, all wrapped in flaky pastry and served with a butter sauce. Just gorgeous….but definitely for a treat only as, unfortunately, it is absolutely stuffed with saturated fat!

On Sunday, Mark took hold of my book and cooked up some of my American Blueberry Pancakes which he served up as a late breakfast with maple syrup and some crispy bacon...yes, the kids are away!! He misread the abbreviation 2 tsp as 2 tablespoons - of baking powder (!)- but I managed to thwart his attempts at sabotaging my recipe and the end result was completely delicious. We were nicely stoked up for our cycle along the Bristol to Bath railway path for lunch with our lovely friends there. Door to door is only about 20 miles but the rain was torrential from start to finish and what is normally a gorgeous cycle ride was pretty unpleasant really! That’s why you can see it was easy for us to give Go Faster Food Limited Go Bites such a high overall score of 9.2 / 10. It seems to have the perfect combination of features, quality and price making it a great all-rounder. We have some interest in China and we are already exporting to Hungary – we started last year and we supply the Hungarian air traffic control and several shops, and we are doing really well there.” Here's my version without the butterscotch sauce. If you were making this for a dessert, you may want to make some sauce to go with it: Place the apples in a saucepan, cover, and then heat gently with the cinnamon, a tbsp water, a tbsp honey and a tbsp sugar until purreed.But the road to success has not been a fast one. The idea for Kate and Mark’s company began 18 years ago when Mark was training for the New York marathon. Put the dates into a bowl with the bicarbonate of soda and pour over the boiling water and leave for 20 minutes Pour on the rest of the oil and add some water - about 120ml or to about 1 inch depth. Cover tightly (I covered it with tin foil as I used a roasting dish) and bake in the oven for about 30-40 minutes until the potatoes are just tender.
