Quiet room...


Huguenot

Recommended Posts

*glances up at the grandfather clock and decides it's time for lunch*


*puts down papers, gets up and slowly strides across the room towards the door*


*notices Joe's reading the Joy of Sex, catches his eye and gives him an appreciative smile and nod*


*exits stage right*

*arrives back from long boozy lunch with friends, nods to chumasterp, and reclines on chaise lounge to snooze*


*thinks to self "this is mental, I can think out loud in the quiet room and it won't disturb anyone. I wonder if any of them fancy a pint tonight in the real world? Anyway, that's enough talking to myself, time to snooooozzzz..."*

*opens one eye, peers with some malevolence at the loud thinker over in the corner, closes eye, resumes previous supine position and returns to slumbering behind a copy of a newspaper that might rustle, should it move, but that does not move, not even a little bit, no matter how long you sit and stare at it in the conviction that it must, soon, surely, fall to the floor*

.............lounging sans enfants. Closes laptop gently. Corrects seam on the back of silk stocking. Admires red everlasting nail polish from Nails inc. Sighs......... wonders when Mr Batdog will turn up.


Smiles seductively at Mr Mikewbate, stands up for a stretch - knocks over Mr Joe likes dinner's copy of The Spectator....... exposing his copy of 'The Joy of Sex'. Blushes, picks up enormous handbag and leaves.........

*crunch of ryvita and beef shudders through heart - what! 4 30! i've missed lunch - heart begins to race and breaks into nervous sweat*


*ah, whats this? DM's finally stopped tippy tapping on the bloody laptop only to throw the house copies of the joy of sex and the Spectator at myself and mikewbate and seems to have stolen cushion from young chumasterp mistaking it for her handbag. No surprise, the saucy content of the Spec is enough to put even the most gentile of lady folk in a fluster.*


*looks around the room as many consider the content of DM's forgotten handbag.. odds on, batdog lives in there, not heard from him in a while*

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
