If you're doing requests, could we see a photo of MrBEVS sparko on the sofa with Woobie and/or BooBoo up there with him?

Pretty please?

;)

Can't sleep.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

When I have one of those nights, I just remind myself that lack of sleep isn't fatal and do something relaxing until I'm sleepy enough to fall asleep.

I was just checking my twitter feed and CBC's Nahlah Ayed had re-tweeted a Spectator Index piece titled
"BREAKING: Iran's parliament says it could designate the US military as a terrorist organisation"

I don't have my glasses on and was sort of skimming and read that as "Ireland's parliament".
doh

I nibbled on a bit of Castello Blue Cheese with a drop of whisky/sprite tonight. There was residue on my plate, as well as a few small sticky crumbs.

Our cat sniffed and then enthusiastically licked the plate all over.

I really liked that cheese, back in the day when I could eat real cheese

MrBEVS ate something rather too hot and spicy at the local Thai temple today. :p

We did not gate crash . Our Thai friends invited us to the Songkran Festival.

Me too - and Cambozola (I'm yearning for some of that creamy goodness!) :)

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

I also yearn for it .......... almost give way some times, but then realise what the result would be and resist the urge. :nod:

OH loves Camembert, and always has a rather nice one in the fridge. Luckily for me, that wasn't a favourite, and I've not be tempted, so far!

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

:nod:
I love Camembert and Brie too but have so far managed to resist. My 1 ounce of extra mature white cheddar a week is having to be sufficient for my cheese fix presently.. :(

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

I do love a bit of Cambozola. And it was only relatively recently that I learnt that it is so called because it is a mix of the production methods of Camembert and Gorgonzola. :o

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

That's a win for the marketing bods, who'd buy Gorgonbert? ;)

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

Barbeques, I naffing hate them. Also when did they replace picnics? Picnics take effort, you have to go somewhere, you serve little sandwiches, maybe a decent quiche, mini sausages rolls and lovely salad washed down with a nice Chablis or a bottle of Champagne if you’re pushing the boat out. But barbeques are just such lazy affairs (sun's out so round to ours at six and we’ll have a barbeque). You drink horrible supermarket beer and eat petit bourgeois sausages and dress as if you're cleaning out the garage. :frown:

And I thought that M87 was a motorway in Scotland. :o

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
 

Sandwiches, quiche, mini sausage rolls? What happened to the Foie Gras, lobster, smoked salmon, etc - to go with the Chablis / champagne?
