Or whether you end up with bad stomach ache.

Actually boiled herring would have to taste ten times better than rollmop.

'Boiled' Herring??? WHO ON EARTH WOULD EAT THAT? :o  Now, Herring fried in crumbs with New Potato's...'Tatties 'n Herrin'...has become an aquired fancy in my later years! Like the taste but hate the bones!  ;)

Rollmop looks like the jars of 'creatures' in a Sci-Fi film...ABSOLUTELY no way!  ;D

I used a spell when I was in a similar situation. The spell was to give me 'knowledge of warfare', oddly after doing the spell I started to win battles.

Now this could have been something to do with the spell...OR...something just clicked, or I changed my dice, or I'd just learnt all the tricks my regular wargames partner used.

They'd probably taste better.  :-& :-&

It was at a birthday party in Eindhoven, when I got dragged over there by Target/Heartbreaker to some European Games Fair.
I think the chap whose birthday it was, was Swedish....And rollmop was his favourite.

Living a sheltered life I was forced to look up rollmop. Oh my! Still I have never let looks dissuade me from trying a new dish (although smell is another issue).

Sorry about the gout, Kitty. Despite the the cartoons of Gillray, et. al, a flare up is no laughing matter. My sympathies.

It's under control, thanks. But I need to watch my diet a bit; bacon's off, mussels, spinach, and mackerel a rare treat. Thank Heavens I'm not a drinker. But it's true, it's no joke at all when a slight twitch of movement leaves you feeling as if your foot were strapped in a brazier.

Sorry to hear about the gout, Alexander !

Von's Mum had an attack of that, in her finger joints, caused by drinking far too much orange juice. (Apparently)....Not nice !

It's horrible, nearest thing to childbirth for men, my doc told me. I haven't shared that piece of wisdom with the Management... commiserations.

If you did share that with management I think it might hurt more than Gout. :)

There are effective meds, fortunately.

Hmmm, I wonder if they make me roll a lot of bad dice?

I see that you are wise in the ways of science.
