I've just discovered something funny... The Laydeez love spaghetti and deal with it as if each strand is the longest, juiciest, tastiest worm ever seen... it's like a shark feeding frenzy.. one hen chasing the other trying to get the long bit of spaghetti dangling from a beak... wings flapping... legs a blur, trying to eat the 'worm' without the other getting it...

Apparently im tea drinkers sidekick now according to bonj.
Oh the humanity of it all.

 

[Night Train]

I've got a Guinness, guess I should get my coat.

What a difference a year makes - well, an academic year at least. The offspring is home for the summer, his first year of university complete: exams finished. I collected him from uni last night.

This evening, he asked what was for tea. I said I was making a basic bolognese sauce to have with some pasta. The offspring announced he was looking forward to it. This from the boy who wouldn't eat mince, disliked cooked tomatoes unless it was as part of a pizza... hated peppers...

So as I get ready to put some pasta in the pan he says, "What, no spaghetti?" This from the boy who would eat pasta of any shape *except* spaghetti, as he didn't like the taste of spaghetti...

So we had spag-bol and he *devoured* his portion.

Then he said, "What's for dessert, mum?"

I told him I hadn't mad eone.

"Would you mind if I made one, Mum?"

Err... no son *pick me up off the floor*

The offspring then proceeded to make a rather tasty peach crumble.

Sometimes when they live away from home for a while, it really does them good! I love having him home, I love him to bits, but it's also been great to see him thoroughly enjoy living away from home in hall of residence, gaining independence, making some good friends, *growing up properly*

I know that alcoholic beverages are frequently here in Tea. No need to get your coat. I do not like Guinness, do you have any White Wine?

 

[Night Train]

No wine I'm afraid. Not spending on anything until I get my next job sorted out. The Guinness was a 24 pack freebie for doing a friend a favour last year. Still got 14 cans after a year.

Waffles, it is very comforting to hear you talk so lovingly and heartening for those of us with all this to come!

Miloat, my fried if I ever need a sidekick I know where to come.
At present this Batman needs no Robin.

 

[longers]

I'm going to buy a bottle of white wine tomorrow Speich. I'll try and save you some.


Hello NightTrain, good self restraint with the Guinness.

I just looked at your sig and am amazed by those pieces. Fantastic work there Chapeau .

 

[Speicher]

I will raid the biskit tin instead then. and the Tea Caddy.

Had some more acupuncture today, and if I drink any alcohol, I might spring a leak?

Custard creams, pinky wafer ones (don't know the name) and chocolate suggestives. Scompf, scompf.

 

[Speicher]

I am off to watch "Big Bang Theory" and possibly the Giro highlights.
Good night all.

 

[Night Train]

Cheers Longers, I might have to give up my workshop though unless I can get some work in either making stuff or subsidising it.

I fancy some biscuits now, Speicher. Haven't got any though so it will be fruit instead.

I am going to have my legs x-rayed on Wednesday to try and find out why I have grown 45mm over the last 10 years. I should have stopped growing over 20 years ago. The growth seems to be all in my legs as I have had to get longer trousers over the years.

[tdr1nka]

I'm away to my batbed, night night.
