'Left overs' omelette for dinner, made with cold chicken, chorizo, a selection of cooked veg and flavoured with a little smoked paprika.

Certainly beats walking or cycling on the M25....

There been a chicken slow roasting in the oven for over 2 hours now and the smell is divine. In an hour or so I shall stop working and tuck in. The joys of working from home. -_-

We made pigeon and rabbit stew at one scout camp, it was pleasant enough. Pigeon and rabbit roasted over an open fire on the other hand was not particularly pleasant, far too dried out and chewy. In Spain last year I tried sheep brain, which to be honest didn't taste of an awful lot and the texture wasn't very appealing, the rest of the tapas was superb.

I am stuck at work feeling rubbish

I think I may be developing Man Flu.

Surely you have a reception after a wedding and a wake after a funeral....?

Accurate

still waiting for our new recycling one

In Moscow we have grey snow....and very angry taxi drivers who throw a strop when you fail to be ripped off by them.

Would a Dyson not do the trick?

Our roses have been flowering almost continually for the last 16 months, we are down south, but we did get snow last year and still they soldiered on. We have a lovely display of red roses in our front garden at the moment. Our ornamental fig tree has just started to bud, it too is very confused.

Perhpas you need to change the time and date........assuming you are not in possesion of a time machine.

All the best mate, our second is now 6 months old, his sister loves him and he is in awe of her. Sleep now while you can....

I thought Big Brother finished ages ago. Just shows how out of touch I am

Official breakfast of the BNP.

Egyptian cotton?

Fun times ahead for you mate. All the best. Our second is now almost six months old and we just started him on solid food a few days ago. He is just past the stage of looking as if we are trying to poison him every time we put food in his mouth. Now we just need to convince him not to talk with food in his mouth as it falls out.

Will somebody from the Irish RFU be standing in for you on the Cross Code forum?

I remember those, good grief that seems like a very long time ago.

Good grief, I didn't know you worked here too....

I will be politely advising where they can stick their carrot.

Last week I was told by my boss that she hoped to be able to give me some good news in a couple of days regarding promotions. It's turns out the 'good' news is that I am not being promoted!!! Somtimes I just wish the stupid cow would keep her trap shut rather than getting my hopes up. Still, they did manage to fit in the 'keep up the hard work, and looking good for next time' speech.

Can you post it?
