Mundane News

Scrambled egg & bacon, since it's Saturday. The egg is not beaten but scrambled in the pan.

I always wondered why people beat the egg up first. I never understood adding milk either. Or why they overcook it. But people are funny with their eggs.

Is it something to do with getting air into it and making it fluffy?????

Not mundane news, but a mundane question. What are the robots that are on the site and how can they view threads

I think the adding milk dates from the rationing in the 1950s. It is certainly not something I do!

I think that's only for cakes.

Neither is cooking judging by your lack of evidence.

Why would you want meringuelled eggs though?

@mybike - ah, it could be. You'd need to mix the powdered egg into something.

Diana Dors used to ride a Dawes, through the streets of Hawes, followed by a dog with silent paws and a butler on all fours.

I thought it was the butler who rode the bike.

Currently copying my music collection to my new MP3 Player, 5000 songs, its amazing how much something so tiny will hold, its smaller than my old one, I guess I'm going to be here for a while.

Are you done yet?

Today I am the Prince of Power Planers.

The two new bedroom doors have been sized to fit the door holes. The door frames have been doweled in the screw holes of the old hinges because the new hinges don't line up. I have to wait now for a couple of hours before the glue has gone off, then it's door hanging time.

Now that's mundane.

You're a Vogon aren't you?

Just read this on Wikipedia

Vogons are described as “one of the most unpleasant races in the galaxy—not actually evil, but bad-tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous", and having "as much sex appeal as a road accident" as well as being the authors of "the third worst poetry in the universe".

I hope it's the last point that you are referring to and not the other stuff

Remember:

DON'T PANIC

I'll be in Meanwood next week, I don't see you getting excited about that.

I must have missed that post.

I must have missed that post.

Thank you. Unfortunately I'm coming up for a funeral.

Yes, took just over an hour, the player is a Cowen iAUDIO 9+ and I'm impressed with it, drag and drop or copy and paste to load music on it, it works well on Linux, the sound quality is excellent, the control layout isn't the best but its easy enough to work out and use, I'm happy.

The first door is done. Just so you know, the screws supplied with B&Q 3" internal hinges are shite and you have to drive back to B&Q to buy some proper screws.

I'm still using an iPod & running Apple's software in a Win7 virtual machine on Linux. But then I mostly use it for podcasts.
