I take it you started listening to books by choice, not necessity? No it was by necessity ... post knee op - sleepless and uncomfortable nights . Audible books/ music/ pod casts etc. was a game changer bringing great comfort . I thought it was just short term but now find it is not.

Lugg, if you want to give it another chance, try cooking it this way: Using oil or a butter & oil combo, gently fry whole small or cut-up okra (frozen are fine). As they cook, they'll begin to throw off the slime -- first getting wet, then looking white, and finally becoming "dry". source
Thank you Bixa .. maybe I will try it again seeing as how you and others like it

I was making a "poulet coco" for dinner. It's an Antillean speciality with chicken and grated coconut, along with curry, ginger, etc. But now it is sliding in the direction of Asia with tha addition Thai chillies and cardamom. I'm trying to drag it back with the addition of some sliced okra, but we might end up in the middle of the Pacific Ocean That all sounded so good until I saw okra . It may be me and my cooking, or maybe the okra is old when it reaches the Uk but all it is to me is inedible slime

I am with you both on the augmented reality aspect. But it is a fascinating place and so good to see it has been saved , even if for various purposes. I had not heard of the Graf Zeppelin before , fascinating .

So Hay festival starts again shortly ... Covid is over and it is back to normal but there are opportunities to join in on line ... search the link below if interested www.hayfestival.com/homeI am so excited to be there again ... tickets booked for Saturday and Monday but lots of free events in between....sampling the fab food and music. which of course is a huge part of the festival. 3 events booked , all so different , Saturday : I am going to be star gazing when attending a talk by Maggie Aderin-Pocock, not sure if there will be any Barbie dolls , news.sky.com/story/reach-for-the-stars-british-scientist-maggie-aderin-pocock-honoured-with-her-own-barbie-doll-12827715 and then a complete about turn listening and hoping to get some cooking tips from Rukmini Iye. www.rukmini-iyer.com/ Monday ... completely different again, really looking forward to Jeremy Bowen ... The BBCβs International Editor has covered the Middle East since 1989 and is uniquely placed to explain its complex past and troubled present. In his new book, he meets ordinary men and women on the front line, their leaders, whether brutal or benign, and explores the power games that have so often wreaked devastation on civilian populations as those leaders, whatever their motives, jostle for political, religious and economic control. With his deep understanding of the political, cultural and religious differences between countries as diverse as ErdoΔanβs Turkey, Assad's Syria and Netanyahu's Israel, he offers readers an authoritative guide to the modern Middle East.Bowen is in conversation with Sune Engel Rasmussen, Correspondent at The Wall Street Journal covering Afghanistan, Iran and North European affairs.

Great to see Listening being given its due! Thank you Bixa -- I am more and more drawn to digital listening although I do still love reading a " paper " or " real " book. Several reasons ...but mostly I have learnt that I get far more from listening to a well narrated novel/ story than I do from reading it digitally. It stops the strain on my eyes , particularly when I've been at work. hunched over a computer. I guess it comes down basically to the fact that I am an auditory learner now.
