Pasta, chicken, and mashed spuds? I made a chicken pasta thing with green veg in the Wok on Wednesday and made too much as usual, so I used the rest in a tin and put some butter fried onions in and creamed mashed potato on top, then black pepper over it. 35 - 40 mins in the Halogen. Bootiful.

Double carbing. What's the issue? Should have on a buttered roll for the carb triptych. Garlic roll?

Did you know Argos is Greek for gullible? I wouldn't know. Apparently the word 'gullible' isn't in the dictionary. That's amazing, I never knew that. Splendid work there from Crank. I read somewhere that the word originated onboard ships when coming into Port, due to the amount of Gulls and other seabirds following them.

I think it was in relation to the terms Goys, Goyble and Gobs, because they were always fighting over food scraps. (Old Websters Dictionary 19-20th cent. I believe).

Hi
My neighbours are celebrating Eid today. Well, I assume they are as I'm sure it's Eid, I haven't seen them. I'm really really hoping they bring me some food round. They have done sometimes in the past. It is remarkable food - they are Kuwaiti - a great bunch of lads, erm, a family, actually. It's delicately spiced and different to anything I usually eat. One treat was a lamb and rice dish, which looked like a biryani, but tasted totally different and amazing, different spices or spice combos. The chap suggested I tried fasting for one of the days this year, just to try it. Then he told me the rules. Ouch! Not for this bap!
Anyway, I'm waiting with hope and marking the occasion with BDT. Hopefully I'll get to watch the rearranged Liverpool v Man Utd match shortly, unless RedNev has orchestrated his comrades to invade the pitch again.
BDT!

As much as I love walkers smokey bacon on a chit, mixing with real bacon seems foolhardy. The rest sounds amazing though.
OTTM. Priti Patel your boys took a hell of a beating today.
But to paraphrase Arnie, unfortunately they'll be back.

Shouldn't you be taking them something as it's them who are celebrating? I can justly throw that in your face as our only Muslim neighbours moved away. Nothing to do with me taking them booze to celebrate Eid or anything like that.

If they have recut that bit with Miranda is it now M effect? Priti can't get the people she doesn't like, Dave has been caught trying to get a dodgy mate free money and the courts are after Boris, maybe they'll get him for child support next?

I feel like the Muslims have missed a trick not doing Eid in the middle of winter.

Nothing to do with me taking them booze to celebrate Eid or anything like that. My PM took them a citrus tree house plant with some weird mini oranges growing on it. Looked quite cool actually. Like it belonged in a sort of bonsai orchard. That must be worth at least a rice dish over the next few days.

I don't like bacon, it's on the list along with mushrooms and mild cheese.
I did explain to a work colleague once, apropos the bacon thing. "There's something wrong with you", was the response.
I don't doubt it.

That's a first. Especially as I didn't do anything.
It's the childs 9th birthday tomorrow. She's climbing the walls with excitement. An early start tomorrow I fear. Best start drinking.

I don't doubt it. Don't dig on swine? You can get posh bacon now that doesn't give you cancer. If I was 'ard I'd see you outside about your mushrooms and cheese comments.
Games: Still no PS5, yes, I've been trying since November. No, not that hard obviously. Although I missed Asda's drop today by about ten minutes it seems. Or whoever's drop it was, by about a picosecond. Fucking scalpers. Oh, you mean games I've actually played, looked at, watched YouTube videos of etc. Control. Did that. Much fun. Erm. FFVII remake naturally. Erm.
Filums: A lot. I mean A LOT. Ask me about films. You won't (might) regret it. TV: No, I've not fucking watched Line of 'fucking' Duty. But I do have Disney+ OTTM: I have a new job. I had a new dog but she was mental so had to go. Pics on my insta for those interested. OTTRM: Had my first covid jab. Felt just as chipper as I did when I had covid last May. Roll on Monday and indoor restaurant / pub drinking and dining (fuck al fresco)

Too drunk to click on the buy button?
Crank's 8 year old will help assuming she's not been on the turbo shandies early.

You like mild cheese? That is just washing-up liquid that they couldn't sell, so it has solidified and been rebranded as cheese.
Still got the Bimmer, or have you gone all amipal and bought an upmarket milk-float?

Mozzarrella is a mild cheese and it’s very nice.
