Lu is currently securing the necessary medicines to help me cope with this cold. Those medicines include pizza, chocolate and wine.

Wow! That's some Apothecary!

Wow! That's some Apothecary!

Better than Lemsip.

Four people were off work today with it, at least another five of us sneezed and snotted our way through to knocking off time. When we find who brought it into the factory we will string them up and whip them with sodden hankies. I have reached the shivery stage, the duvet may get involved quite soon.

I am thoroughly and abjectly pi$$ed off.

Why? I hear you ask, well I'll tell you feckin why, I dropped my feckin iPhone and the flap on the cover opened up on the way down and when the feckin phone hit the feckin deck it feckin smashed the feckin glass that's feckin why.

Grrrr feckin grrrrr.

Tourettes playing up again Carl !

Frustrating isn't it. I've just sold a couple of things and found hardly any interest until the last second when the price suddenly jumps. I don't mind it if I'm selling mind you.

Worked out alright in the end, I won a bid an hour later which was better than the one I lost.

Today has been a little sad. My trusty Altura winter cruiser tights have, after very many years a lot of miles and many adventures, bitten the dust, I picked them up to use on this afternoon's ride and realised I had worn through the backside. Sadly I've had to consign them to the bin.

If you see a price label marked up in Sesterces you can safely assume that it is out of date.

Today at 5.15am I started to notice it getting light.

 

[raleighnut]

I think i might do that. I



Well i've just had some on wholemeal toast. It was ok but a bit tasteless,seeing as it was supposed to have a malt whiskey taste to it. I'm glad i only paid 15p and not the £3.50 on the packet.

You need to sit it on a blob of Philadelphia cheese on cold toast with a sprinkle of black pepper.

You can put Chives on it too but this is what I meant, this one has Dill.

Yes, hmmmm

I recall saying that one of the Specifications of the Chef Executive at Speicher towers, was that if the Chef made the kitchen into a complete mess, then they had to clear up the mess, and load the dishwasher etc. It looks now as if a certain applicant for the post has just removed himself from the running.

I would be happy to clear up a slight or mediocre mess, but not a giant mess.

Point of order!
My current 'Mistress' allows me the freedom to cook but insists as part of the deal in clearing-up afterwards. I have however been known to clean-up as I go along, and afterwards.
I recall once having emptied a dishwasher......

 

[Fab Foodie]

Yep Foodie cooks, I clear up.

I prefer it that way.

I thank you!

Someone I know was going to make a big batch of Chocolate brownies, and insisted she could not use anything less that something like 72% cocoa in her recipe. If it was a rich chocolate cake for a very special occasion, possibly I would agree. In biscuits, though, I would have thought Bournville cocoa would be okay.
I wonder what our resident food technician would suggest.

I don't know what he would suggest. I'd suggest Pavlova....

It's no good now fabbers I will have the image of you cooking in a 'Gimp Mask' whilst @Hill Wimp stands in the doorway with Henry on a leash.
