Eating a frozen pizza as it snows outside.
Home Run Inn, from the South Side of Chicago.
Very much like in-house, sausage the size of meatballs.
-7C with snow, fog, and mist, roads are a bit grumpy.

They taste better if you warm them before eating. Although they're not as crunchy.

The advert at the top of the Cyclechat homepage is currently offering me 12 metric tonnes of frozen rabbit meat, all the way from China, courtesy of AliBaba. Unfortunately, our freezer is too full of turkey leftovers and the odd sprout.

I'll take a ton or so. Well maybe 5 dressed rabbits. Used to get that Chinese frozen rabbit down south, when in school, circa 1981.

Now you tell me!

Hmmm, the adverts I'm getting are for men's work shoes and ambulance driver training...

Helal meat and guided tours for me.

I liked the bit where the advert insisted that twelve metric tonnes was the minimum order of frozen, skinned bunnies. Lord knows how many racy knickers you have to take.

You're not thinking about placing an order!

I have two small drawers for that sort of stuff and they are full of hankies, tatty boxers and socks with holes in them. Much as I'm tempted, the logistics are unfavourable.

Besides, I don't know who I would tempt them with.

I'm not getting any adverts at all on my CC page, that ad blocker someone on here recommended must be working.

 

[Reynard]

Oh, a new ad... One for a bike shop this time.

 

[Reynard]

Ah, and the ambulance training is at Snetterton... Well, that's a half right thing for me, as that's a race circuit.

Good morning. A sudden and hopefully one-off bout of insomnia had advantages this morning when I was able to scare the life out of Middle Son when he was sneaking into the apartment during the small hours after attending a party.

Now you tell me!

"@classic33's household tips" would be a great book and would possibly sell tens of copies.

Today is the day to check the 'use by' dates on stuff in the fridge and eat it in the correct order..
It could make for some interesting menus 😂

Mmmmm, I'm sort of hankering after something with an exhibition back. One of these days... But I have a little ladies' tank with broken hands in a clamshell case - the movement still works though, and I admit to taking it out of the case and just sit there with a loup and watch all the bits moving. It's fascinating in a nerdy way.

I find it fascinating how they work. The power held up in a coiled up spring bring slowly released through a system of gears so that the hands move at different rates. I have a watch which is puzzling me . It is automatic and functions in that respect , the second hand sweeps round as it should but the other hands don't move . Something must be slipping somewhere !
