Post by Douglas Wilson »

I did this one before and it went quite well.

Tonight I'm having a Prawn Curry with Boiled Rice.

Over to you?

M&S individual steak pie + mixed veg and a couple of small potatoes. Right now am having a cup of their 'Christmas' coffee - black, no sugar. Was given Warre's Otima 10 port for Xmas, so later will be enjoying a glass with a chunk of Stilton. :)

I can see why! Just imagine if, while you're making your rice, one of your eggs has a double yolk!! You'll probably have a fucking coronary.

Me, I had chicken in a crispy hot & spicy coating with (thin) chips and peas.

I had a chicken club sandwich with lovely tangy mayonnaise. I also had some of my mates starter which was a cube of crusty cheese with melty cheese on the inside. It was unbelievable. Although he was dipping it it in cranberry sauce which I didn't do because then it would have been awful.

M&S were doing 2 packs of sausages for £3, and a special offer on a caramelised onion sauce for sausages, so I've put some in a casserole and am waiting to see how they turn out, while the new potatoes cook.
P.S. I've now had a look at the instructions on the jar of sauce, and see that I should have browned the sausages first so hope the result will be OK :?

Later: the sausages are done and are pretty tasty. The texture could be better, so I must try browning them next time. ;)

I had a four hour drive home and still the missus (who was at home all day) was too selfish to rustle something up, so I ended up with poached eggs on toast.

I didn't wash up out of protest.

Haha! There is absolutely no way I would call anyone fat and mean it, not with my belly. Link please? It was probably part of a failed joke.

I think it was in-game so no link. I think basically I was saying that I wasn't sure if Travelodges do breakfast like Premier Inns and I said that this was a big deal and you said something like "Are you really fat then?" Bastard!

Travelodges do a shit 'breakfast in a bag' that you can order I think.

This is an irrelevance though, as there is a Little Chef on the same site.

Don't even remember it to be honest! If I was being blunt with you I obviously consider you a friend, albeit a weird fat one.
And in case you were wondering, this joke was purely because I am a vegetarian myself.

Benzydamine? Really? It sounds like you swallowed it! AFAIK it is still only available in the UK as a mouthwash, throat spray and cream, none of which should be ingested (it is available as a lozenge but you wouldn't 'swill' something down with a lozenge). I know as I used to work on the product!

No. That's OK. The dose is so tiny that you don't really swallow much. You can hardly 'swill' your dinner down with a throat spray though. But, it IS much better than most other products because it does, at least, have an active ingredient.
But you don't want to be swallowing the mouthwash (or, indeed, the cream).

This is an excellent comment. The irony is that I just shaved my pubes for the first time in ages earlier. Trudat. Also, Heather says I only have a base.

Haha, I've recently become excited in the other direction (?) having bought some conchiglioni (like conchigli, but huge). They're lovely stuffed with minced pork and onions, covered in bechamel sauce and parmesan, and baked on a bed of tomato and basil sauce.

Er, tonight though I did fishcakes.
