      No, but my neighbours do. Next year there's Purim, where the kids and adults go about in fancy dress. Quite surreal.

    thinks that whoever thought it was a good idea to put chicken into sushi (I'm looking at you, Waitrose) really needs to go back to first principles #sacrilege

      Chicken is not an endangered species like tuna, so chicken sushi is the future!

      Perhaps you should ask Megasquirt to speak more slowly?

      This is the design by Jeremy Suter, CK, and there are almost enough parts to build two motor bogies....

      Maybe DHL should rebrand themselves as ODC. Did you see what I did there?

    has come to the conclusion that the battery in the CX has well and truly had it. Looking at a 74Ah 680A replacement by Exide. Beer first, though.

  17. Horsetan

    3 measures gin, 1 measure vodka, 1/2 measure Lillet Blanc vermouth. Pour the gin, vodka and Lillet blanc into a cocktail shaker half-filled with cracked ice. Shake well, and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a large, thin slice of lemon peel, and serve.

      Losing was a good piece of strategy, rested players, extra day of prep, chance to give experience to the rest of the team and safely avoid all but 1 of the tournaments heavy weights before getting to the final. It could have been worse, it could have been Poland vs Japan. The script is clear, now it’s time to start delivery.
