Tea? (Part 2)

[TheDoctor]

I had an idea it was only a Bank Holiday in Scotland. Never mind.

Watching 'Up' now...

It used to just be a BH in Scotland, IIRC.
'Up' is a great film The beginning 20 mins or so is really rather sad...

Last Christmas meal, tuna and scallops on a bed of salad, with a lovely dressing. Tomorrow we are back to sausage and chips View attachment 16916

You do eat glamorous meals.

I had beans on toast, having eaten a proper meal at lunchtime.

NT and I went down to lunch with his folks, and it was oven chips and oven baked battered fish, with peas and sweetcorn . NT commented, as our plates were put in front of us, that it looked like a normal portion, with one piece of fish, not the usual rather over generous portion of two. I agreed.

And then his Mum produced an extra plate, with sausages on...

Anyway, in an attempt to lose some weight, I didn't cook another full dinner. Although I fear a small biscuit may be consumed later with

Oven chish n fips here tonight ... but sans veggies because I've run out. And no extra sausages either. NT's mum rocks!

 

[TheDoctor]

Sausage sarnies for lunch here. French onion soup with ciabatta (sp?) rolls in a bit.

 

[Night Train]

NT's mum rocks!

New addition to my sig!

 

[coffeejo]

Yes please.

Grey and misty here but it's not raining .

 

[Night Train]

I have a already but thank you.

I have worked out that making a fried egg toastie is easier if I don't drop one of the two remaining eggs on the floor. Fortunately the falling egg missed Arch's Raleigh Jeep and exploded on the floor next to it instead! Ho hum, that is what comes from getting up early and rushing around getting sorted for a day of plastering. Not sure when my friend is coming over though as I am now sitting watching a recording of 'Restoration Man'.

Grey and misty here but it's not raining .

Weather the same here. Hopefully my window will dry out and I will get a chance to apply some sealant to the outside to help keep the rain out.

 

[potsy]

Grey here with rain not far away I don't think, diet ?

 

[Night Train]

Still waiting for my friend to turn up to start plastering. No response to a text and not answering his phone!

........

Just had a call from him, he's just got up and is stressing about his Uni course work.
Plastering now postponed until tomorrow so he can get started on his presentation. I can't complain really as his course work is important for his studies.

I am sure there are 92 other things you can do instead. It is annoying when people change plans so late in the day. I think in this instance you are right to be sympathetic.

Make yourself some and then you only have 91 things that need doing.

 

[potsy]

What is this diet that you are drinking Potty?

Coffee with a lot less sugar than I used to have it with

Oh, and cereal for breakfast instead of bacon and sausage, I'm starving already

 

[Archie_tect]

These austerity measures are killing me... six hours in.

 

[twentysix by twentyfive]

[Archie_tect]

In our house too... sigh.
