Pickled eggs have to go down as one of the most disgusting things on this earth.

- I didn't know how to add a pic but didn't dare ask as found an old thread slagging folks off for not knowing. How long before you are no longer a newbie though- some folks have 4000 posts :scared:
But notice they have a lot of one word stuff must randomly post to build up my count even though have not alot to say instead of just reading and watching. :D

With pickled walnuts a close second. My FIL loves them with his Boxing Day cold cuts. Bleurgh.

I don't know anyone who would eat pickled eggs. Not even for a double dog dare.

The $10 per day is the protection money that Ray demands of all Newbies. For that, he'll take afternoon naps on your behalf and protect you from rabid squirrels. He's f-all use protecting you from the other BE members, sadly.

Seriously, didn't know for sure whether I still qualified as an UTTER newbie as I've been hanging around on here for a couple of years since I first found out I might be moving to the states. Used the site initially just to post a few random questions (and eternal thanks to those who answered). Didn't fully appreciate the social aspect of BE for a while. I'm one of the unlucky sods whose work doesn't allow them near a computer that much... :)

I have you beat by nearly a year with less posts, which I guess makes me an older newbie :confused:. I never post unless I have anything of vital importance to add to the conversation, hence the low post count. :D
