petit poisoning

That’s a bit of a worry. Has she taken out a new policy on your life?

Apparantly not, King Charles is a master in Ecky Thump.

That was with the main course; beef bourgoinon, new potatoes, petit poisoning, carrots and Yorkshire pudding.

Then came the dessert tastings.

Yorkshire Puddings should be served before the main course, on their own.
Gravy might be acceptable in this day and age, but shouldn't be an everyday occurrence.

There is a reason why I do the cooking at home and SWMBO - who's a Dietitian - doesn't.

Trump vs Vafaei has gone to a deciding frame. That's been another belter of a match.

I didn't know Donald played snooker. I thought golf was more his thing.

The playing surfaces are of the same colour. But the table has the holes within easy reach. He'll just need a short stepladder to get him up onto the the table.

Another lovely day. Another nice relaxing day. Had a few errands to run in the morning. I then re-waxed my Carradice panniers, something I had been meaning to do for ages. They've never let in water but we're looking tatty. They now look somewhat multicoloured!

I was tempted to use black shoe polish to give them colour again, but it would probably rub off on everything.

The one downside to nice weather is that it brings my downstairs neighbour outside so l basically have a checkpoint outside my front door. I get a million questions and then a dose of negativity every time. I wonder what the polite version of **** off is!

I think we're done here.

"G'way out of that" — Means "No way" or "Stop talking nonsense," used to dismiss someone or something.
"I will, yeah" — A sarcastic phrase meaning "I absolutely will not do that".
"Get stuffed" — A direct, yet less vulgar way to tell someone to leave.
"Take a hike" — A clear dismissal, telling someone to go elsewhere.
"G'luck to ya" — A very common, dismissive way to end a conversation abruptly.
"Would ya stop" — A plea to end the conversation or the nonsense.
"Cop on" — Telling someone to behave better or use common sense.
"I let you go" — A polite way to end a boring conversation, pretending the other person is busy.

What a fabby match.

Anyways, I'd better go and do the washing up.

I hope so, because the Presidency is working out about as well as the business dealings.
Work on the game, Red.

Washing up done.

Madam Boo is having fun with a squeaky mouse. Although squeaky mouse has lost his squeak after having been dunked in the water bowl a few times too many LOL.
