Blather, Waffle and Poppycock!

I played a joke on Mrs Sunjester, and Orcs almost go the blame.

Which I object to, because if I'm going to do something insanely suicidal, I want to claim the glory.

Yep, I nearly got a clip round the ear!

I was looking at clip boards with storage on Amazon.

The Genie M800 is described as "Gummies at the clamp prevent a slipping of the papers while making notes or wind".

Can anyone explain?

Obvious clerical error for "breaking notes or wind". Clear now?

[Last Hussar]

You probably deserved it.

[Orcs]

You probably deserved it.

Yes, even  if not for that particular event. 

[Orcs]

Single is much overrated. I don't just mean hot and cold sex on tap,

Cold Sex? I did not think that you were interested Necrophilia

As you grow older, you get adventurous, you know....

My daughter went to Wetherspoons (a well known pub chain in the UK) and ordered a vegetarian breakfast with grilled tomato. Some time later, out came a vegetarian breakfast with black pudding (a type of blood sausage).    You have to wonder what goes through some people's minds. Why would someone order a vegetarian breakfast with meat?

Her partner went for the full English and asked for poached eggs but was informed they had run out of poached eggs.

That makes me wonder....Could you poach an egg and then 'fast freeze it'....So it only needs to be microwaved ? (and that's why they'd 'run out' ?)

'Lunch' at Techno Towers, for the past few weeks (plus) has been home grown poached eggs.

'Home grown' eggs are SO better in taste compared to shop bought ones.

(I just wish the sodding chickens wouldn't follow me around and try and get under my feet !......OIKS !)

I knew someone would ask (I wondered myself). According to this guy (see link), you can pre-poach them and store them in the fridge for up to 5 days 'without any loss in quality' when you re-heat them. If you freeze them, apparently the white of the egg will be rubbery and not taste so good. The yolk is unlikely to be runny and will be more like a hard boiled egg.  Somehow, I don't think Gordon Ramsay in Kitchen Nightmares would approve and makes you wonder how fresh the food is at Wetherspoons.

You grow poached eggs?  

Doesn't everybody ? 

(Von still won't let me put an egg (in the shell) in the microwave and give it full power for a minute.......Or do the experiment where you get a ball of 'plasma'  zipping around the inside of the microwave....I'm not allowed to have any fun.  )

How Mean !  I think you should stand up for yourself and explain that not are you a grown man but the head of the household and you will do as you please.......afterall you have plently of straw in the stable to bed down in.

  Ooooh! I've never tried that.         

[Techno]

I wasn't even allowed to do that with a really old/kn*ckered microwave (that still 'worked') in the yard.......Far enough from the house so as not to cause a worry (Probably).

I AM doing that one day.......The next time we have an old microwave that's due to go to 'the tip'......And Von's not around to stop me. 

It's the plasma ball that I really want to try and achieve.

Cheers - Phil.

[Westmarcher]

Won't you have to build a bunker and a fall-out shelter first? 

[Techno]

Got one/both already.

(I really have.....Though it would be rather than a teeny bit wiffy....YUK ! )

Phil in your case can we blame Von, you'd electrocute or cook yourself !
