Relatively short walk completed and empty tins and bottles put in the bottle bank.😇

Why are some people so lazy that they just dump bags of tins beside the containers instead of spending a bit of time putting them in the right place.

Same reason that they dump their rubbish on the delivery entrance of our charity shop instead of taking it to the tip I suspect.

I do sirrah. What of it?

You don't reheat before eating!

Is this cold toast a German custom?

Not really, but German toast works well cold.

I'll take your word on it, and stick to the warm/hot toast I eat.

Fitting a monitor to a mount I found the fixing bolts too short, the mount being thicker than normal so a rummage through a collection of small bolts found four brass ones of exactly the right size.
Suspect they came out of some long forgotten electrical item proving it pays to disassemble items before disposing of them

I'd eat cold toast too. Give it a thick coating of butter

It needs lubricating so you can eat it then.

Back at work after the new year and it seems like I'm in the minority of not having had a cold or similar over the holiday period. Grey & breezy start with the weather going downhill from there ending in a wet commute home.

The major annoyance of the day was having to delay my second cuppa of the morning by a couple of hours when I got called out to help a couple of colleagues move some goods from one warehouse to more secure storage, but they only had a works car and needed a van due to the quantity. I was quite surprised to find out how quickly a Vauxhall MPV/Van type thing can shift, even when loaded with around 450kg of material.

My mother has always allowed her toast to cool and then give it a thick coating of butter. That's how I was fed toast growing up. I was probably about 8 or 10 before someone gave me hot toast.

I generally would eat it hot now but occasionally I would eat it cold with butter like I did growing up.

Toast, hot with butter only. Ever! ✌️

I'm with you on this one. There's a point where heat melts the butter perfectly. This, of course, means that the toast is not at maximum warmth but it should never be cold toast.

The backs look a bit battered.

It depends what you're putting ON the toast IMHO...

Cold thickly spread with butter, then a dabette of mustard and a slice of smoked ham on top is just bloody divine.

Whereas chocolate spread needs hot toast so that it reaches that perfect level of soft messiness...
