Tea? (Part 1)

[TheDoctor]

Always a pleasure to nibble on nice warm buns...

 

[Speicher]

Loose cranks and warm buns - reminds me of a title of a book.

Tight heads and loose balls - it was about Rugby (the game, not the place).

*wanders in looking (if anything) worse than last night*
Jeez. Did a 21 km ride, so that's 200 km in the weekend. The elephant appears to have come back for sloppy seconds...
Still, at least I got some co**ee and cat-brain cake. And some lemon cake. And two cups of tea. And a copy of 'The Boys' Handbook' published 1981. The section on computers has a vision of the future where we all have a 'computer receiver - transmitter' at home and text can 'be shown directly on a video screen'.
Nah! It'll never catch on...
I'm still waiting for hovercars, jetpacks and silver jumpsuits myself.

"The elephant appears to have come back for sloppy seconds..."

Is that a euphamism?

Silver jumpsuit

Jetpack and the like

 

[TheDoctor]

It means I'm walking (and sitting) a bit uncomfortably.

That silver jumpsuit looks less 21st century boy and more oven-ready ninja!

I tried to go out and make a day of it today. But did not have enough grub and hit the wall.
Probably my last chance to go out until next may looking at the forecast.

Are you expecting BAD weather?

 

[Night Train]

Tea? Earl Grey for NT?

Thanks, Doc.

I have finally got rid of sent the girls home again. They have left such a mess and broken a rather costly and favorite ornament of a Ming Dynasty armoured horse I bought from the V&A museum over 20 years ago. It is not repairable unless I do a 'Terracotta Army' restoration on it.

I wouldn't have minded so much if it was an accident and they owned up and said sorry but both denied that they broke it and one even said that it was already like that (in a hundred pieces on the floor!).

In other news: I have become a singing extra in a music video this evening!

 

[TheDoctor]

Oh heck. That's a pain...

Youngsters have a very good ability to swear black-was-blue that it wasn't me, it was like that already and someone else did it and ran away, I know I did when I was 12!

Tea? Or can I offer you some juice of Merlot grapes? I think the yeast may have got to this lot too...

Cheese?

 

[Speicher]

Is it a rose Merlot?

ooopss, you weren't offering it to me were you?

 

[TheDoctor]

Yes, it is! For very, very deeply coloured values of rose.
I can offer you some white Vinho Verde. I wouldn't offer you red wine anyhow - I know you don't like it.
Red Leicester, Applewood smoked Cheddar, or Wensleydale? And have an oatmeal cracker.

 

[Speicher]

The Applewood smoked Cheddar sounds nice, I have some Irish Soda bread to go with it. thank you.

And white wine please.

*Passes comestibles as requested*

What have you been up to today then?

 

[Speicher]

I also lost the cat. I could not find him anywhere in the house, can you guess where he was? You might need Tdr1nka's "help" on this one.

 

[longers]

You might need Tdr1nka's "help" on this one.

He was in Ireland
