I've seen the future, well eaten it anyway


I like Chocolate Brownies


I like Mince Pies


I now like Mince Brownies


They look and taste just like a regular brownie, but the 'mince' bit hits you at the end. Very nice indeed and i'll probably be sick of them by the end of Xmas.


I've also eaten sprouts, prepared in a very pleasing manner. All the big leaves pulled off and steamed, then mixed in with little chunks of thick bacon, bacon fat and chopped chestnuts. Now they were very delicious and they'll be appearing at our Xmas lunch, as will roasted white sweet potatoes


And quince jelly

What do you eat instead


Greens, Cabbage or the dreaded boiled courgette


What will be on the table Foxy ?

No none of that...


I do cook roasts on occasion... Roast beef last Sunday, roast spuds, roast carrots home made yorkies.. Home made gravy..


That's about it..


Christmas Day .. Home Alone.. not sure if I can be bothered doing all that for one..


Not allowed Christmas Pudding, Mince Pies, Custard, Chocolates, Dates, Sweets..


So a small Oloroso at lunchtime and a couple of bottles of beer in the evening , perhaps a sneaky Drambuie..

Few Twigglets.. Some nuts...


Boxing Day.. off to see Millwall get stuffed...


Foxy..


P.S. Can't even eat Humbugs..

I like my veg steamed or roasted, unless it's bubble then it can be fried. I don't mind sprouts with poultry but I find them a little bland if over done. I personally would roast up some parsnips and carrots in honey and serve them with a nice homemade cranberry sauce. What does everyone think of yorkshires with a Crimbo lunch? Yay or nay?

    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
