I not only love them, but grow them too...they are the only things that are doing well at the allotment at the moment. Nice "de-leafed" (as though a mini-cabbage) and stir fried in butter and seasoning. Simple but lovely. Nutritious too. By all means throw in bacon bits if that's what cranks your engine.

Have you managed to fit in any football matches!? Guess you weren't here when Arsenal lost to Man. U:)). Glad you are having a wonderful time. Here's hoping you get back without too much drama. Unfortunately, there is little chance of the snow being gone by the 4th of January. T says, more likely the 4th of July! We're itching to know which of our lovely neighbours you speak...(PM with details please). Enjoy the rest of your holiday and come back safely. xx PS: if you bump into Lionel Messi, give him a big kiss and try and persuade to come to Man U (or failing that, Arsenal - if he must;-)). PPS: T sends big kiss x.

I remember seeing a fabulous programme involving the wonderful Brian Cox about snottites and life on Mars. Fascinating stuff.

Oh grolly, I'm not sure now!

Don't tell me the COD bug has gone to your arse.

You are welcome to my snot.

I don't think you are paranoid one iota. I regularly speak to strangers through a teeny gap whilst the security chain remains fastened to the door. As to why he used the knocker instead of the bell, we have a knocker (no bell), and people often tap (or bang) on the glass panels. So make of that what you will. I'm glad you didn't open the door.

COD bugs are bad. Those of you who are full of snot, trying saying "cold"......seeeeeee.....COD!

Good news ratty! By how many hours/days was she delayed in total?

And there was I thinking H wanted us there for our charm, wit, stunning good looks and general delightful company...

Thanks HAL, I feel better already.:))

But someone damaged your car. Proof that you can't have everything LOL!

I'm currently full of snot. Everyone who phones me sounds full of snot. My neighbours are dripping the stuff. My friends email/PM me with precise details of their snot count. It's horrible. Is everyone in ED really full of snot at present? Or am I particularly unlucky?

You certainly have. Welcome to the EDF Saturn 5.

As per Lil Bro, sorry about your car HAL. What a bummer! Presumably no note was found by you.

ooops sorry:-$

@ EDKiwi: LOL! Cheers! @karter: They fit beautifully Lil Bro.(tu) Now could someone get me a shopping trolley LOL! *chuckles away*

Its not a @#$%& rice-cooker btw :)) It's not? Thank f-uck for that!:))

Crikey! 3 presents on one thread! Oooooh...this is exciting. So! Given the manifestly considerable amount of thought which has gone into these...ahem...highly practical gifts, I am moved to reciprocate. DJKQ: although I requested its deletion (you forget, a Lady of Repute has a reputation of sorts to maintain), the thought did not go unappreciated. Wear this when honing your football skills in the snow. Narnia: as one of our (three) EDF Dynamites Football Team fans, please click on the attachment below. Keef: I don't know what I'd do without my yearly supply of...erm...yes...well...umm...BUT, please accept these for wearing at gigs. Reciprocal prezzies out of the way: Daizie and Waynetta: in respect of your Top Tips services. Brum: for being BOSTIN. Legalbeagle and Lady Katharina van der Wotsit: take your pick Karter: the Godfather of the EDF, what else... Quids: in respect of that Carling Cup match the other week...credit where credit is due Huguenot: in case the flight chaos means I have to skip Singapore and head straight for NZ, these.

Huguenot, you need to lower your voice...I fear such kindness will be detrimental to your scary reputation. That's exceedingly generous of you. We'd have loved to have attended. However, given that our plane isn't scheduled to land till 14.55 on Christmas Day itself, we might be more than a little zombified and therefore unfit for company having only just stepped off the plane. But I am touched: thank you. It's funny, I've just been investigating the importation of pork pies into Singapore...you might just get lucky - provided you continue to be nice, of course.

Awwww, didn't think you cared... *coughs, splutters, takes another pill...and goes as directed* Still think you're an amateur:))

I believe you fib. How does one bow down and kneel all at once? I agree that you are not worthy though:)).

Thieving? Well! I simply cannot permit such an allegation to go unchallenged. Section 1 of the Theft Act 1968 states that: a person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it. Yes indeedy. Was there dishonesty? Nope. We are talking about a pursuit created by the elusive Master Quids. I, for once, abided by the rules. You could have played, but failed to do so in time. In other words, you lack the necessary speed and proficiency for the game. Was there appropriation? Well, I guess it could be argued that there was. BUT...as dishonesty is manifestly absent from your most ungracious charge, then the appropriation becomes irrelevant. Was there property? Again yes, but without the element of dishonesty you don't have a toe to stand on. Not a carpal. Did it involve property belonging to another? Nope. The 6000 was available for all to play. Though for the avoidance of doubt, I should state that the 6,000 now firmly belongs to the highly skilled moi. Oooooh yes. Was there an intention to permanently deprive? Of course there was! That's the point of the game. You had your chance, but you blew it. *thinks: AMATEUR*
