Modestly introducing Tallis Steelyard (Now nominated!) Showing 201-250 of 1,740

[Jim]

so I have been reliably informed

[Patti (baconater)]

You know I was a cook before I became a teacher, don't you?

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Proves the point...

nuff said ;-)

[Patti (baconater)]

My insanity has been required to perform both jobs well.

[Jim]

required or acquired?

[Will]

Whatever did you cook besides bacon?

[Jim]

what else needs cooking?

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Pork chops, roast pork, gammon steaks....

[Will]

A pean of praise to the mushroom needs writing.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Hail to the mushroom
Earthy fungussy goodness
Essential in the Full Irish Breakfast
Or The Mushroom Double Swissburger
Touched by dancing midnight fairies
Glittering with invisible pixie dust
Oh no, wait, thats magic mushrooms....

[Jim]

mushrooms taste best fried with bacon :-)

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Jim wrote: "mushrooms taste best fried with bacon :-)"

They certainly do.

[Patti (baconater)]

Yes, if you omit the mushrooms.

[Jim]

so I've served up chops instead

[Patti (baconater)]

And ale.

Can't say I'm thirsty, though.

[Will]

Patti is unwell! Call for a doctor!

[Patti (baconater)]

Even I don't fancy beer at 6am.

It's lunchtime now.

At university I did have beer with my breakfast.
Drunk out of a metal tea pot

[Patti (baconater)]

How very middle class of you.

[Patti (baconater)]

I think. I'm not really sure what actions constitute middle class.

Upper class would be beer from a porcelain teapot, yes?

[Will]

Provided it was Wade porcelain, possibly.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Or a chamber pot.

[Jim]

certainly not from the bottle.

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

Middle class? More like Middle Ages when people only drank small beer, all day. The water wasn't safe

[Will]

How things have changed, eh?

Spot on, GL. You're obviously one of 'them'.

I've just read a few books set in Universities.

[Jim]

I bet she's even got the fancy waistcoat ;-)

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

[Anna]

See, if I fish for long enough, I get a nice new outfit for Karl when he finally makes it back to his estate. Not sure about the colour though - might suit me better.

Anyone got a name for that colour?

[Patti (baconater)]

'Embarrassed Damson'

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Languid Lackey

[Jim]

doesn't go with my eyes

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

Ah - 'Indelible Mustard'.

[Patti (baconater)]

Baby shit green

[Jim]

I've seen my working denim jeans go that colour.
In spring, just after cows are turned out onto new grass

[Patti (baconater)]

Cow shit green

Howling with laughter, here!

And for the others too. Great way to start a stressful day ahead.

I was chuckling away as I typed 'purple'.

Heck, I spend most of my time chuckling as type in our group. :D
