The thing with teapots is this. man has designed many liquid holding vessels over the centuries with spouts/outlets that pour, cleanly, but somehow nobody has managed to attach one effectively to a teapot. Teapots are mostly OK up to the point where you have to dispense the tea and then they FAIL.

Don't worry - I think Uncle Mort put the miscreant straight. I would recommend you a teapot, if it weren't such a crushingly boring thing to do...

Damn. How did you find out about the, er, accident? I was nowhere near, and I can prove it...

Then why do you have out of date yogurt cartons and cheese string stuck in your hair? J'accuse!

First Great Western's annoying safety announcements, repeated at every stop (their leaflet also being available in Braille upon request, as I've been told several times per commute for the last three years).

This is a good one, Jonesy! The announcements seem to use up most of your life. I can barely concentrate while I'm taking a moment to read the emergency instructions...

Once we've had the safety announcement, the buffet announcement, the calling points announcement and the ticket restrictions announcement, the announcement about the 'quiet' coaches seems rather futile...

D'oh- I forgot the smoking and don't leave your luggage announcements! How could I possibly forget them, hearing them at least twice most days... says something about the effectiveness of endlessly repeated announcements!

Maybe you need a nice cup of tea and some virtual cake. :angry::evil:
 
Oh (trend developing :angry:) I prefer Malt easers; and I did have a Cragganmore on my return from Londres, before unscrewing the cap of... I'm suffering from PWS...we need rides.

OT: my nephew is appearing at the Olivier as The Quartermaster in 'Mother Courage & etc' - Any good? Will I understand? :evil:

I love these! :evil: And oysters, octopus, squid and black pudding. And tongue. Tripe I can take or leave, but I feel obliged to eat a bit of offal now and again. And hell, if you had all of them you'd have the beginnings of the famous Salade Crankarme!
