Tea? (Part 2)

[Speicher]

Funny conversations were frequent at the Pumphouse Environment Centre. Subjects include

Where is the missing staircase?
Have you got any stamps for the Polar Bears?
Why did 212 and a half people visit the Centre last week?
How fast do I need to pedal so that the radio can be retuned?
Have you got a fresh orange for the clock?
Do frogs fall from the sky bum first or head first.

The strange thing about all these questions, is that there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for asking them.

I have to say that I enjoyed working there, and seemed to fit in well.
The topics of Zulus, telephone wires, their baskets, and the old lady who swallowed a fly would indicate that the Resource Centre is very similar.

Did it involve C[sub]2[/sub]H[sub]5[/sub]OH?

Did it involve C[sub]2[/sub]H[sub]5[/sub]OH?

You mean 2 cheeses, 5 potatoes, an onion and some more potato?

Sounds like a vegetarian tartiflette to me...

No, but I think Tyrrells crisps, Divine Chocolate and percolated coffee were involved.

That sounds like a hedonistic day!

That's cheeses, potatoes, onion and Ham, to form a normal Tartiflette.

I would have you know that using die-cutters to cut out silhouettes of frogs, demonstrating the bicycle- powered radio as well as providing information on such things as constructing straw bale buildings, photo-voltaic panels, and ground source heat pumps, was not, in fact, a piece of cake!

No of course not Spiecher. Rather it was a tartiflette

Now I've taken recycling a step further today.

Some weeks ago I had a new battery fitted in my watch. More recently I noticed that said watch was steaming up (that's moisture inside folks). Then I spotted that the O ring seal was sticking out from the back plate. Mr battery fitter had boogered my O ring the swine. So I've spent a patient couple of hours crafting a new O ring from and old inner tube and a pair of scissors. Finally after 2 attempts I managed to form a suitably thin piece of rubberto fit in the O ring slot. Bit of vaseline to help seal and hey presto - another use for used cycle parts.

I demand my cleverness award now

And the chemical symbol for Ham is?

That's P for Pork

Hey, we're getting somewhere. I'm logging off now, so if you could all just reinvent the rest of the table....

Another quiet day?
Tonight, I have the delightful prospect of a WNRttP
Let's hope it doesn't

Finally we have discovered the person who secretly puts pink wafers in the office biccy tin. It was Robbi the swine. He finally confessed to the crime as he is leaving the end of next week. He hid the dastardly deed well. 4 or 5 times, pink wafer biccy's were placed in the tin and no one would own up and no one suspected him. We thought it was the accountant as he is the office weird one... but no. So mystery is now solved.
