My apologies Madam. *gives Moos coat and notices smell seems to disappear. Finds cotton bud with only one end used - there are some real finds in here.*

Will do Bobbly - just to clarify, when I say it's not ready I mean that although it is all jarred and labelled it needs to mature until the start of November so if anyone wants to swap before then - and can avoid the temptation of tasting too early - then let me know.

Ah, tush and pish 'twas ever thus... (Robert Robinson, 17 December 1927 ? 12 August 2011) http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ9o7QfUszDJFCDEWM0I84yMxzk_x3HbPQfHw9ccAmUoRrtwksD

*Shakes umbrella and enters gingerly... Gingerly complains loudly. Finds abandoned armchair and - kicking off unrecognisable magazine stuck to sole of shoe - sits in damp splendour and tries to identify the all pervading smell.*

I have adapted this diet to include an exercise regime based upon entering - exiting and re-entering the water for a prolonged period every week. I call it the dukan dive diet. rimshot

Or the desire/passion to do anything but beat their 'auld rivals' which is why they went down so badly to mediocre European opposition.

... but the refund procedure is a fucker.

The pity of it all is that no one can see that our society is collapsing around us and that cash and plastic are due to be sacrificed on the bonfire of the vanities (no not the book, silly); that the future lies in barter is in no doubt and he/she who neglects their pickles, their chutneys, their salted runner beans and - above all - their jam pan is in for a sticky future. Fine, don't believe me. But when the stock exchange starts looking like the Multicoloured Swapshop don't say you weren't warned.

In early March this year I swapped jars of apple & ginger chutney for jam, marmalade and honey amongst other things and I have a new batch made from locally grown apples. It won't be 'ready' until the start of November though but if anyone else has produced jars of preserves/pickles etc. from their excess garden produce that they want to trade just let me know.

Only really applicable when walking home along LL and realising nothing in larder and no energy/inspiration in self then - only then - I have enjoyed the co-op paella with a dash of tabasco. (seemed to be only ready meal not swimming in fat).

...and a caramelised bottom that just needed a bloody good scraping. *waits in queue with own spatula*

'dere' surely?

Try it again LM - cover bottom of pan in bio washing powder, add inch or so warmish water (to activate it - a bit like yeast in bread) soak for a few hours - probably best you don't cook it - and then scrub. Probably need to do it 2 or 3 times now but the enzymes will eventually eat away at your goo (ooh missus).

Thanks to the slavish aping of American 'style icons' - left in place by the bankers AND the military as proof - if indeed proof were ever needed - that if they wanted - and they do - oh yes they do - they could - and they would - mm hm - you neglect the good old English - I would even go as far as to say British - nay I would even go so far as to say Commonwealth - traditions that might have spared the imminent, oncoming, damoclean, just-around-the-corner-mate conflagration but no...NO... you had to have bloody popcorn. What the fuck's wrong with a lark on a stick!?

June this year- ?I want to play for Ghana, because I am a Ghanaian and not for the Three Lions of England.? ?My name is ample testimony that I am a Ghanaian, and so I find it ridiculous playing for the England national team with the kind of name I bear,? ?I have been offered the chance to play for the English side, but I think playing for Ghana would be appropriate.? -some words are harder to go back on than others... though I suppose he could always change his name to Manny Frimpton?

Thank goodness. For a minute I thought some awful innuendo was in play. *FFS! You can't possibly put that! Get out, get out, get out!*

Go on Frankie - you know you want to... http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTs5JCG1xPTyaiLsFZ_yHcfyn0hDlxn7vbq5kcq8qGHOfTZqjO7lg
