Soggy bread!!

Made a nice loaf of Potato Oatmeal Sourdough bread this morning but the dough for some reason was really soggy. very doughy, and sticky. Folded it a number of times, and even re-proofed it, but it is raggy on the top. never mind, it is in the oven baking as I type this, so it will have to do.
Did the pizza dough as well, that turned out fine anyway. Run out of Basil oil, so will have to get some more from Tesco.
Crosswords done quite quickly, the You magazine one had a very tricky proverb in it, I couldn't see at all. VT took it over and finished it off, something about the straw that broke the camel's back. The trouble is a proverb fills up about 7or8 clues so if you don't see it straightaway, you struggle.
Last night was quite momentous, we didn't have our Chinese for the first time in about 15 years..and what a change. We had Tacos instead and very tasty they were as well.
Tonight we are having:
Salad with avocado, plum tomatoes, cucumber and seeds.
Pizza with pineapple, tomato, mushroom,and sausage. A vegetarian one.
Potato salad and Rice salad.
