There's nothing better than waking up in the morning to the joyful sounds of Spring...the lesser spotted Bitter Blue aka Bertie, with it's cheeky little Citeh! Citeh! mating call...it's a feisty little blighter, very territorial and doesn't get along with the neighbouring birds...once thought to be close to extinction, it's numbers are increasing and can now be seen quite regularly coming out of the woodwork...

Atila can be quite funny though...as can Hatche... erm...Jimmy Two Times. In fact I think the pair of them are quite hilarious and misunderstood a lot of the time. But then, having (I am persistently told) a very strange sense of humour myself, who the hell am I to comment - eh?


Bye the way, nice to see another Man. U supporter today (hello Red Devil). Is that a grand total of 3 Man. U supporters on this thread now? (Excluding closet supporters of course)?

I'm afraid that, in one part of your post at least, you are misguided LM.

You are right Jah.


I have to say...this isn't the most welcoming of threads though - generally. It should be a nice friendly thread and included in that should be plenty of friendly piss-taking about each other's teams...all part of the fun I would have thought. Certainly, whenever I have piss-taked (piss-took?) I have meant it in jest. But then one man's joke is another man's abuse and vice versa...oh Lord I'm wittering on...I'll just go away...

Absolutely. Supporting a team with no serious history of achievement in 135 years, I have always assumed that this was the whole point of football.


Maybe the occasional serious point being thrown in just to keep the thread on track.

It does smell a bit of old pants and curly-wurly's doesn't it?


Some of the cast-list on here seem fine on other threads but it all gets a bit Just-William (on a good day) and Lord of the Flies (on a bad day)


Seems to have quietened down of late tho


Anyway - Arsenal for the double

That's because Atila's gone. He was just one big wind up merchant from start to finish. I'm sure there were a lot of us who did find it very hard to ignore his constant baiting and the result was it turned into a school playground with him playing the part of Biffa Bacon. I sincerely hope he won't be back.

I wasn't having a pop at you LM by saying I don't advertise my support of MU all the time.Your response suggests to me that you thought I was. I wasn't, honest!

      Christmas Cheese!

      By David Peckham · Posted

      An excellent point, ed. I reckon you could possibly get the cheese down to 75g per person depending on how many courses, the cheese media one is using and the accompiaments. A thicker biscuit can really increase the power of your cheese dollar. I'd also recommend putting all the last year's chutneys and pickles from the back of the cupboard in a single Kilner jar, adding a bit of malt vinegar and a grated apple, then attaching a hand written label saying 'Pikey's Pickle: Autumn 2025'.  It's not Megan Markle levels of domestic deceit, but it works every time. Pre-portioning cheese seems arbitrary, but I think acceptable when it's 20 people. It gives people an idea of how much a serving is, and negates the issue of somebody, normally a brother in law or cousin's new boyfriend, not taking their share of the rind. Remember, you're doing them a favour. Somewhere in the room there's an older family member who could see it and never forget. It's disinheritance stuff. It also gives rise to the great postprandial game of 'Cheese!' where guests can swap their share of cheese for another. Tastier than Monopoly and far less cardboardy, cheeses can be traded like currency or commodities. Hard and soft cheeses, dependent on their relative strengths, normally settle at close to parity but I've seen blue cheeses trade at less than half the price.  It's a Stilton lover's paradise, if you can hold your nerve.  Goat cheese lovers can clean up, but need to beware. As volatile as the 1970's Argentinian Peso, it's up and down like a bride's nightie.   I think I'll stick to Neal's Yard, then.

      Another vote for The Cheese Block on LL but for 20 adults, you'd better be willing to pay a fair chunk of money or hope that they'll be happy with very small amounts of cheese! Other than that, supermarket or search online for a large Christmas cheese hamper and take your pick. For example: https://www.finecheese.co.uk/collections/christmas-selections-hampers (only mentioning them as we had a gift hamper, much smaller than a big Christmas one, from them a while ago and it was very nice). I'm sure there are other excellent options.
