It's a bit more complicated than that...
I am weighing up a severe lack of miles, a Maundy Thursday service finishing about 9:30, no Good Friday railway service, the expectation of very low temperatures and a very early start on Easter Monday against desire. Perhaps prosecco and shepherd's pie will strengthen my resolve one way or the other.

FTFY ;)
Go on, you know you want to....

Not a recommended combination! Something with prosecco, yes; something with the pie, yes; but please not together!!! (unless of course this is a favourite combo of yours!)
 
So what's wrong with it?

BTW, it'll just be the shepherds pie for me. I imagine the prosecco consumption of others will more than make up my 'share'...
Because it just wouldn't work. And that's why if srw really fancies it, he's welcome to it, as stated in the small print.

It was Agent Hilda's idea, an ironic hommage to The World's Greatest Author, who in used to hold a Krug and shepherd's pie party in the days when he was Thatcher's Chairman of the Tory party.

As it happens, I think champagne and shepherd's pie sounds horrible, but there's something slighty sweet and fruity about a good shepherd's pie which I can imagine working very well with a bone-dry and full-bodied prosecco. I shall find out tomorrow night (see another thread).
 
Sorry to hear about El Biko, I hope you were unhurt in the process.

Detailed files?
It's an Arnie Schwarzenegger quote from one of the Terminator films.
Looking back at my post, in the cold light of day, I am struggling to offer an explanation as to why it is in there.
My branes tend to meander the further they're up into the night.....
I was hoping it wasn't related to Romney's 'binders full of women'...

Saturday rail service on Southern on Good Friday, I believe, if that is any help. Advance fares for £7.50 at the mo'.

Bognor to London is the easy bit. But replacing the signals on the Met means that the closest I can get to home is Beaconsfield.
