      Not sausages...but a beer, a curry and Empire Strikes Back.

  8. has a demijohn of ginger wine bubbling away. Looks, and smells, a little suspect at the moment, however should pull through okay...one hopes!

      Sounds good, do you remember where the recipe came from?

    2. Claude_Dreyfus

      Claude_Dreyfus

      It comes from an ancient Good Housekeeping book; sadly long out of print...

  9. has a great evening lined up. Beer, Cheese Doritos and Jonathan Meades...

      You also seem to have kept your eyesight which means you made the right choice.

      Claude_Dreyfus

      Enjoyable,but none if us are very effective sailors. Being overtaken by swans and mocked by dragon flies...

      Remember 45yrs ago rowing on The Serpentine with 2 mates, and finding we had a broken rollock. Got back to the hard in ever decreasing circles

  17. has been offered a new job... Turns out it's the same company my boss is moving to as well!

    1. Claude_Dreyfus

      Claude_Dreyfus

      It was a complete coincidence and we are both quite happy about it. I won't be reporting to him any longer though..and no, it isn't a role reversal!

  18. has been spending an enjoyable evening watching our fish; Neon Tetras are most inquisitive and endearing little animals.

      I agree, my favourites too.

      For a moment, I was visualising glowing Czech-built trams!

  19. has been sugar soaping walls...

  20. has been very naughty.

      It hasn't arrived as yet... When it does, we'll see!

      As my mate explained to me when he had brought his 5th pile of rust home, sorry classic car project, 'It is easier to seek forgiveness than it is permission!'

      Next you'll be telling us that the bedroom's got a red carpet.

  22. Has discovered he is a ferroequinologist. Someone who 'studies the Iron Horse'. Sounds posher than railway enthusiast!

      How do the cavies show their appreciation? Or is it more distressed squeaks at the music they don't like?

      Barry Ten

      He's been looking at their recent Amazon purchases

      They happily sit there purring as the likes of Sidney Bechet and Sammy Davis Jnr play - we even get some 'popcorning', but the moment you get a bit of Firebird or Autobahn they start grumbling and swearing...

       

  24. has discovered that the Bachmann NYC liveried ALCO RS3 is the hardest model in the world to get hold of! I'm on my 3rd attempt following two previous "I'm sorry, we have discovered it is out of stock" emails! Fingers crossed!

  25. Has discovered two new words today; concretisation and processial... I'll give you a hint; they come from a business consultant from one of the "big four". Answers on a postcard please!

      At least you learned something from a Consulant! There has to be a first for every thing!

      Was the concretisation a product of cementation and aggregation?

    4. Claude_Dreyfus

      Claude_Dreyfus

      Do consultants know how to mix concrete?
