Tea? (Part 1)

[Arch]

Would you guess that while I typed that post, a tiny voice from the back of my mind piped up saying that maybe I ought to check the anatomy of a hamster before I made such a blase assumption.

Curse you Zoologists and your all encompassing knowledge of things 'animally'!

Sorry! It's just one of those things people say quite often - well, not about hamsters, but often about elephants - they have 4 knees you know! NO THEY DON'T! No animal has 4 knees. Some animals have NO knees, granted (many cetaceans - although even some of them have vestigial internal hind legs). But I can't think of any vertebrates that have no elbows, except maybe fish - and they still have 'limbs' just not quite the same as ours...

Sorry, I'll shut up now...

I do know that Giraffes have no vocal chords.

Found out when we auditioned one for the band years ago, very disappointing actually seeing as it took us ages to find a microphone stand that would reach!

We really, really, must have a Tea? getogether some time. I know Waffles is a bit tied up just now, what with Mr Waffles being plastered and all that, but maybe after that, we should have a real tea party. Find a spot that's fairly easy for all of us to get to and organise something...

*scoffs more pie*

Sounds a good idea.

If you get a whiff of something fruity baking - I've got a very large fruit cake baking in the oven. Should be ready to come out of the oven in about 40 mins

Hey, Waffles has an oversized bun in her oven!

Really, we should have a get togther. We'll need a lot of notice I suspect, for people to weave it into their diaries and so as many as possible can come. And a venue. And a Hooooooooooooooooooooooge teapot.

Well, I'm off home, after an exciting day in the Tea? thread. Got to go shopping on the way home and then decide which leftovers to use up for supper tonight - the half tin of tuna or the half bag of Shetland Lamb mince. Having had pasta two nights running, I might do a chilli on rice, with the mince.

See you all in the morning!

I missed the 10k post for working. Can't stay either as I am off on another date tonight.
I wonder if the three date rule will apply:?:

A tea meet would be good fun.

 

[tdr1nka]

Waffles, there is always a wiff of summink fruity when you're around.
Weather you're baking or not.

NT I'm not sure about the 3 date rule, is that imperial or metric?

Evenings!
Bit quiet in 'ere after teh excitement earlier on. I'll stick the kettle on for those that want some tea?, and crack meself a beer

 

[wafflycat]

Anyone want one of my large & fruity buns?

*flashes large & fruity buns at the denizens of the tea room*

 

[tdr1nka]

Hubba hubba !

May I wash down your buns with a nice warm cup of tea?

I would like something stronger that Tea. In the Cycle Chat mini-league for the Tour de France, I am currently 143 points away from the leader, and he has not got Sastre in his team.

Good thing there is now a Beer Thread, lots of virtual drinks may be required

 

[spandex]

Ill see you there as Ive just popped out for some fresh air

 

[TheDoctor]

Mornings!

Lovely day today - I may need to get out on me bike this evening...

*hands Doc' fresh cup of tea!*
Mornin' all from the misty midge fest that is our morning in Ireland!

Having a fresh, warm bun washed down with a mug of finest tea is one of life's great pleasures
