I love left over pizza for breakfast. This is a win win

The only thing I'd have to leave off is the egg - but that's cos I can't cut them so get them sliced (so, egg yolk all down me front!) and also, I have never understood egg on pizza, which they do a lot here!! (And I get stick for adding pineapple!! LOL)
But, bloody love the idea

Purchased back a car I used to own 10 years that I'd purchased new, now for one of the kids to use over summer.
Needed a couple of tyres on it - noted one of the tyres was original from when I owned the car, tyre had done 83000 miles! OK, it was a Michelin tyre and on the rear on a small hatchback but that's still some going!

Blimey, I'm lucky if mine manage 5k.

My Father's Day card (only got back today).

In it was a hand-drawn 'Beer token'.
The T&Cs on the back stipulated that it was to be my beer, from my beer machine, cooled by my electricity but it would be served by the Gremlinette at a time of my liking, if she's available.

Gremlinette does seem to be clever, funny and sharp witted.
Is she adopted?

Nope. Just takes after her mum, thankfully.

I suppose this could have gone in the BMP thread as well! Anyway, insurance renewal time and I was expecting to get hammered for the Velar and my 6 points as well, but despite some quotes being over £4k, I got my renewal with Admiral for the velar and wife's Mini Cooper SD down from £2300 to £1750 all with protected NCD and MLP etc. I could have shaved another £150 if i split the cars to single cover with other companies, but I couldn't be arsed frankly.

The french when they agree with me!
At a soirée on Saturday, we were discussing language difficulties and peculiarities.
'The worm goes towards the green glass' being one of my favourites.
Then we came to numbers, or more precisely 97!
A whole table of french people suddenly realised how stupid their numbers are after 69!
