Thanks all -- it was very conveniently scheduled when I lived in Canada, as the next day (Canada Day) was a bank holiday -- good for sleeping off the hangover in time for the evening fireworks!
I miss the Fforum, but have a four-week old daughter who is taking up most of my time lately -- a Nextian choice for a name: Jennifer. But unlike Thursday's Jenny, there's no questioning our Jennie's existence...and her tremendous lung power...
Okay, I'll admit it - I was born in 1958 which means I am (oh joy of joys) 50 tomorrow. Celebrate? What for? I'm skint, I'm typing this wearing a broken pair of budget reading spectacles, I can't touch booze as I'm on so much medication I jangle when I walk, and there are more lines on my face than Clapham-bloody-Junction. WHAT THE HELL IS THERE TO CHEER ABOUT????
if you went with the pies I hope that you didn't get a stake & kidney by mistake. There wouldn't be too much worse than taking a big bite, expecting sweet and getting a sweeney todd special instead!
Ah, the old steak and kidnet pie... not to be confused with stake and kidney as then we'd have to put an 'undead health warning' on all the pies and have a small scandal.
The pastry inhibits TX/RX but fortunately if you use the puff variety you can upgrade to 'Magic Dragon'-net. Guaranteed to make all your wishes come true.
