Tea? (Part 2)

[Gromit]

Lunch for my 8yo is a fresh live crab, which he bought at Leeds market this morning, along with an Octopus.

Now, I've never prepared crab before. What's worse is that it was staring at me before I popped it in the pot.

/ feel bad now

I hope you put it in the fridge to send it a bit sleepy before you put it in the pot?

Eww, just the thought of cooking something that is still alive

 

[coffeejo]

I guess it depends on the speed of the death in the pot - is it, for example, slower or faster than the time it takes to cull a chicken or rabbit?

Funnily enough, they only sell dead ones in Tesco

Morning btw

Yes - sleepy crab in the fridge. My 8yo then made faces at him before he went in the pot.

Apparently it tasted nice. But then he eats odd things

Not a great way to go is it?

All.

 

[coffeejo]

from me too.

I'm going to curl up on the sofa with a hot chocolate and an episode of NCIS and pretend that I'm out on the bike or packing for my weekend away

 

[Nihal]

All.

Potsy

I would offer you a now,except if i tried to make one,my mom would think i'm

 

[Speicher]

I am now on my jollidays! No delays on the journey. A very comfortable bed, lovely patio to sit out on in and good company. Have you guessed where I am yet?

Would this be the hideously tiled 'Stay-cation'?

ie, you're at home.

 

[Speicher]

The Eden project show the birdies with string round their tummies, and hung from the ceiling. Is Pterosaur flightless?

Yes, hideous word as you say. Yes, I am at home.

No need to pack, no need for tickets or passports. A week just relaxing, no domestic duties, apart from light cooking, and loading the dishwasher.

Btw, you do not know anything about my tiles.

 

[penguinking9]

The trick is not to let anyone know you're at home for your hol's.

In the weeks before make the occasional reference to the Maldives, or Svalbard if you don't want to use fake tan.

Oh no, Pterosaur flies very well, mostly downstairs, admittedly.

Oli's much more interested in waving it about than hanging it up.

His mum was very impressed, I'm going to email the link to her and she's going to show his class teacher, in case she wants to make it a project...

I'm sure your tiles aren't hideous. Enjoy your holiday!
