Insignificant Things That Make You Happy.

Garlic, rosemary and anchovies will see them legs done proper. Port and redcurrant gravy, too.

[Yorick]

Aha. Maybe Taipan has a bit of Yorkshire in him ?

[gremlin]

If he hasn't, and he asks nicely, will you let him have some

Popped in to grab some wine and cane out with a ton of steak mince and chicken breasts, again all massively reduced! The wifes assures me we wont need anything else until february!

I can never figure out why people pass up on things like that. Stick it in the freezer and save a few bob.

Remember when the BSE thing kicked off, and supermarkets were selling beef cheap?

TV news stopped a customer with a full trolley. They asked "Aren't you worried about the health concerns?"

"No," she replied "I'm going to keep it in the freezer until the scare is over."

Penny tricked me and had to admit I liked her red cabbage and sprouts.

Bloody lovely they were. Never thought of frying sprouts

Due to the vast amounts of Tramadol and Ibuprofen, I've been constipated 6 days.

10 minutes ago I hit the jackpot

Gassed up the ST at Costco this morning. I was at the first pump, BIG gal at the #2 pump & a little old lady (looked to be pushing 90) at the #3 pump.

BIG gal cuts loose a fart that would have done a Clydesdale proud... About 10 seconds later little old lady emits a small squeak followed by "jesus fucking christ!"

Thank fuck I was upwind

Got a rotisserie thing for my BBQ at Xmas and just tried a chook on it. Fooking aces!

The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures.

(They're on the Beeb)

Turds, farts, pints of spit, endoscopy of somebody chewing a tomato, a swallowable camera sending pics from the belly, a pig's stomach and a live goat.

It's not exactly gravitational wave theory but the target audience of children (and me) enjoyed the first one.

I used to have a bike (Druid's old VFR!) which ended in "RTA".

The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures.

Generally, they're getting better and betterer as each successive year tries to rise above the previous year's bar.

Although personal favourite was 2018, With Profs Alice Roberts and Aoife McLysaght

[Mr. Dazzle]

I was gonna mention that one. I learned loads about Genetics.

It's great when they're done by actual experts (they always are of course) because they understand the subject properly, thus they can "explain like I'm 5" but still go into depth.

Ah, I hadn't noticed what it was about
