  4. Apricot swiss roll

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Apricot jam as "glue" between a cake and marzipan is a necessary evil, but in a Swiss Roll, its an abomination!

    2. eastwestdivide

      eastwestdivide

      I'll have yours then. You can keep the marzipan.

    3. eastwestdivide

      eastwestdivide

      Wondering if the water levels are as bad as 1976. It was like boating in mud...

  9. Back from 2 weeks of Interrail. Photo backlog.

    1. locoholic

      locoholic

      They multiply exponentially, even if you try to eradicate them.

    2. Mallard60022

      Mallard60022

      I didn't enjoy being virtually imprisoned in my own home because of the road closures.

  13. Enough with the French abbreviations already!

  14. Website message: To transfer your online ISA into another online ISA, please ring this number and we'll send you a paper form in the post. Welcome to the 20th century.

  15. syncing contacts from an ancient flip phone via an old Blackberry, an old Mac and a USB stick and email to a 2nd-hand Android. I like a challenge. Please don't tell me there's an easier method

    1. NXEA!

      NXEA!

      Manually inputting the contacts to your Android?

    2. eastwestdivide

      eastwestdivide

      NXEA! - too many contacts to do it manually and retain any sanity

  16. Intermittent horizontal snow in S Yorks

    1. Hroth

      Hroth

      Whilst on Merseyside, the fall of an individual snowflake can be timed using a stopwatch!

    2. eastwestdivide

      eastwestdivide

      I don't think any of the horizontal snow actually touched the ground. At least there's none lying at the moment.

      There was a smidging in North Yorkshire this morning, but most of it has now disappeared.

  19. there's fifteen feet of snow in the East, and it's colder than a welldigger's ass

    1. PhilEakins

      PhilEakins

      Didn't realise welldiggers use asses - and how do they get then to go down the well?

      I could have translated from the American, but the profanity filter might not like it.

  20. Email from phone company "Go Roam even further". My response, "did I say something to upset you? "

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      All roads lead to, er, Roam?

  21. Email from phone company "Go Roam even further"

  22. After a tussle with the Government Gateway, which appears to be more of a rusty barbed wire fence, just paid the taxman the old-fashioned way (paper bill, online payment).

  23. Was watching Groundhog Day by channel hopping between Channel 5 and Channel 5+1. Even the adverts repeat.
