Tv chefs who go on tour, discover a fabulous previously undiscovered chef in some country or the other and rather than showing that chef cooking so we can learn from them, the tv chef insists on cooking something mediocre for the said chef... Grrrrr the tv chefs have a whole program about them but I want to see more by the undiscovered chef
Posters that are so full of themselves that they have to post on every thread going. No matter what the subject they have to get in. They cannot shut up. Over 13000 posts! Non-stop. Give it a rest. Take a break like O did, be discerning. Know what I mean j?

I'd sooner read 13,000 of Jeremy's posts than 13 of yours, which are almost without exception simply spiteful and trollish. Do you get off on just being as unpleasant as you can to people? The evidence would certainly seem to point that way.

That's causing me irrational giggles. Especially since English-speakers often over-egg the "oo" sound, like when people intend to say merci beaucoup! but turn it into merci beau cul! (that's "thanks, nice arse!")


"So you see darling, I simply had to deliver the cul de gras!" - the good old 'arse of fat' :D

Finding, at last, good condition Mervyn Peake paperbacks to replace mine foolishly lent, years ago, in a charity shop, Titus Groan and Titus Alone, with a space in between them. sigh. Probably only ten minutes too late.

Hi Sue.

I've always got Popadoms in the cupboard.

I deep fry them in Sunflower oil. 190 deg c and they come out crisp and dry. Just stand upright for 20 seconds.

They tend to go hard not crisp in the micromave.


Do use Micro wave I'm in a hurry. but they do not swell up like they do when deep Fried.

Waiting in all day for something to arrive that you have ordered.


I'm waiting for a fence panel to arrive from Jewsons E.D. No time given.. Not even a.m / p.m

If it had arrived this morning I could of fitted it and then gone out.

Someone phones you. You answer to find that the caller isn't paying attention and engaged in a conversation with someone else while waiting for me to answer. Well I did answer and as you couldn't be arsed to listen I put the phone down on you. Timewasters.

    • Yep, of course I do - did you not read the bit from the survey about the noise having a negative impact on foraging bats? And like @Angelina I'm aware it affects other people, and if no one complains then it gives them an argument that's it's all ok.  The tree in question was a cherry that everyone loves, didn't need to be touched, and the council admitted was a mistake and shouldn't have happened.  The council and Gala use the 'local' narrative as a benefit, without any figures to back it up. It is used as an argument for the event to go ahead, when there's no basis of fact. The attendees are clearly not local as they've proved they don't give a **** about the area. The council do tell us where the money is spent - 100% on running the Events dept, and a myriad of unlisted free events. They just don't tell us how much, so that we can make an informed decision on whether the gain is with the pain.  Sorry, what was your point again?
    • Leon came this evening and did a small job.  He was able to fit me, which I’m grateful for.  He arrived when he said he would. Very professional & friendly guy, offered great advice and very reasonable prices.  Highly recommend Leon! 👍  
    • Thanks, that's quite big, isn't it?
    • Lots of people are concerned about the impact on the environment.  I’m not personally bothered by the noise but I know people are and I will therefore lend my support in challenging the management and location of the event.
