Tea? (Part 1)

[Speicher]

I will put the kettle on.


Changing the subject completely - I have a friend, well, actually more than one, but I digress. She is a vegetarian, diabetic, and has an allergy to wheat. It is her birthday next week, so I thought about buying her a Dark Chocolate Easter Egg for her birthday. I know she can eat that, as I have seen her eat the Dark Choc of the same brand. My dilemma is, do I buy two Easter Eggs, so that if I eat one, there is still one left to give to her?

 

[TheDoctor]

No. Norty Speicher!

Buy three. One to her, and one two you.

Hang on, that makes four.

 

[mr Mag00]

booj booja eggs are good

 

[HelenD123]

I have a fruity brew on the go and, keeping with tonight's theme, some delicious Green and Black's milk chocolate. How good is your willpower Speicher and how far away is the birthday? Perhaps you think it necessary to quality assure the Easter Egg. It would be very disappointing to give your friend a sub-standard egg for her birthday.

 

[TheDoctor]

Tea and chocolate?

Oh very yes please!

Or by 'fruity brew' are you talking about fermented grapey goodness?

 

[Speicher]

I was thinking along the lines of Divine Dark Choc ones. (From Oxfam) They are Fair Trade, and live up to their brand name.

She will no doubt recycle the card, and/or give the card and the silver foil to her friend who will use it in her paper making arty objects. Just need to find something to wrap it in, I think I have some tissue paper from the off-licence that needs re-using.

Nothing alcofrolic, just lemon and ginger.

 

[TheDoctor]

I'll stick with me Vinho Verde then. And I really ought to go and do some tidying.
Should have done that before I ripped into the alkyhol, TBH

 

[Speicher]

I am sure I could look after your Vinho while you are tidying up.

Did some one say Chocolate

'Ere Doc, got a question for ya.

*sorry, Good evenin' all! Hands out tea etc,....*

This new bike wot I is buildin', I'm gonna put the center pull cantilever brakes from the hack on it but there isn't a rear brake cable stop lug on the frame. I have googled for a rear stop that fits on the seat clamp bolt but can only find two and they are from the USA.

Do you or anyone else know what this 'doohicky' is called and where I might find one?
Wiggle, CRC, etc, don't seem to have anything of the like.

 

[TheDoctor]

Indeed they did. I shall pass the grapey goodness in speichers direction, and go and grab a bin bag. Tidying is a subtle thing IMHO.

OK. Leave it with me, I *may* have one knocking about. If not... *ponders* not sure. If only Spandex was here, it's the sort of thing he'd probably have in the parts bin

 

[HelenD123]

Chocolate? It's a good job Arch isn't here. The temptation may be too much

 

[TheDoctor]

Is you building it up with flat bars? If so, use v-brakes?

That's aimed at Tdr1nka, BTW
