Tea? (Part 2)

* Hands out tea to those that want some *

 

[TheDoctor]

Well, I've been helping out at one of Hilldodgers cycle events all day, hence my quietness.

I have had further goes on penny-farthings and wobblebikes, and also a bizarre one where you have to pedal backwards to go forwards...

I take it you had a good break, Speicher?

 

[Speicher]

Yes thank you, a very quiet week. Lots of sunshine, walks on the beach, etc.
Went to see a play written by Agatha Christie "Spider's Web".

Cats are a bit more settled now, will see what happens when I go to bed.

 

[TheDoctor]

"Spiders Web"?????
*hides behind sofa*

That sounds delightful. Not!

 

[Speicher]

Morning Tea?

Spiders? wot is there to be frightened of?
How many million times (approximately) are you bigger than it. We do not have bitey poisonous spiders in this country. When I got home, a lovely big stripey spider had made a ginormous web across the frame of the kitchen window, and he was busy repairing it. (the web that is, not the window frame). Fascinating.

Then again I am not afraid of mice or frogs etc. Wasps however,

 

[TheDoctor]

Spiders have waaaaaaaaaaaaay too many legs for my liking!
Mice and frogs I'm fine with, and I like rats and squiggles.
Just not spiders. Or wasps. *shudder*

 

[Speicher]

Squiggles, is that your hand-writing or skirrels? Lots of squirrels in the park near here, grey ones tho, not red ones. Lots of bees in the garden, but they just bumble along nicely, well comparatively nicely.

 

[TheDoctor]

Well, squiggle describes thier motion perfectly IMHO. We have black ones round here too, although they're just a darker variation of the grey sort IIRC.

Melanistic, is the word, if you want to show off...

Afternoon all, apologies for the slight whiff, I've been recycling all day. I have an interview for the job on Friday - well, I'd have been a bit miffed not to even get an interview.

I have my roast chicken for dinner yesterday, with roast spuds, three veg, stuffing and gravy! And there's meat and stock for a risotto tonight, plus 5 more portions of cooked meat in the frezzer, thus just getting it in on budget.

And I did a 50 miler yesterday, only meant to do a short trip, but it was so nice I just stayed out!

 

[TheDoctor]

Nah, they're not melanistics, they're definitely squirrels.

MrWC has been working on his huge erection in the garden today. The garden shed is coming along nicely. So he's got homemade pizza with salad and fermented juice of grape for dinner this evening. The salad consists of homegrown lettuce & radishes from my lovely neighbour Bill, tomatoes I've grown, and beansprouts I've sprouted on the kitchen window. Quite yummy.

 

[TheDoctor]

I have some sausages under the grill. That's not a euphamism, BTW!!!!

 

[Speicher]

How does a sausage sandwich go with a glass of Russian Champagne. It's very schnice, end sez 12% on the label, ist sthat schtrong?

Might be time for me to think of sumthink to put on the fred about "My Father". (Which some very kind person drew my attenshun to).

 

[Shaun]

Time to split the tea thread off into a small chunk and start again / carry on.

 

[Chuffy]

Oooh, a sausage sandwich....
