Well, it looks like rice pudding. Possibly we should test it on Kitten first.

It's never too late for sultanas, although we might need a quorum first. Do we want cinnamon or nutmeg or both?

Presumably I should know what OC's talking about but someone will have to tell me later. Mutter mutter quotes I don't know grumble grumble.

It is better than the rice pudding I had in hospital the other day, even if it *isn't* rice pudding!

(Also, this is going to be my last fforum day for a while, as I've managed to get in a car smash and broken my neck. Not too badly though. No worries :) )

You've broken your NECK? What happened (if I may ask)?

Guys, Kitten gets first dibs on all the puddings!

Terribly sorry to hear of your accident , BK.

Much sympathy/empathy/etc. and sheer sadness as one has experienced similar.

One always worries about neck injuries.


Enclosed are chico rolls, vegemite, deep fried mars bars, and Haigh's choccy frogs.

Are you lined up for more surgery or just a long rest with no major sudden movements? And the internal application of Drambuie or such? (Medicinal purposes only)

Just rest so far. Had a call today telling me that the docs are again debating whether it's broken or not after telling me it was... So fingers crossed!

Anywho, back in a few days coz typing sucks atm!

OC Not

Don't give up.

This means mediocrity and a lack of self respect which leads to something like religion to give meaning to life.

Strive, and in your efforts remember the little train that could.

Striving requires thought and though requires chocolate. Chocolate also preserves the ego against the possibility of being led astray from questioning the reality in which we live.

There are no certainties other than that we shall never truly know. We can only create a coherent picture which closely reflects the mind independent universe.


Other than that you can watch reruns of Crossroads.

Only BK could say something as immortal as, '... broken my neck. Not too badly though.' Definitely someone whose glass is permanently half full.

No, BK has a cup and a half full. I hope you fully recover!



Excellent theories. I should write a book on it.


And thank you Ptolmey for your thoughts. n_n

She still sounds quite cheerful! So, hoping I stay intact enough to go see her when I have time away from report season. (the only time you really want to be able to point a weapon at defenseless words and pull the trigger)

How can words in situations such as test papers be defenseless? They are some of the most offensive words I have ever seen.
