I wonder if anyone else's house is haunted
elethiomel replied to lozzy's topic in General Discussions
My gran believed in ghost writing and seeing the future in tea leaves. Mind you she was as mad as a bag of badgers (actually she wasn't she was lovely and the whole family grew up believing in that sort of stuff, it really upset me when she failed to come and visit after her death, thus proving perhaps that the dead don't rise and walk the Earth) -
I enjoy taking off and landing but the bit in between is purgatory

Yes I used to shave every day because I thought I should show a presentable clean shaven face to my customers......now I don't really give a toss. Unfortunately it means that when I do finally get round to shaving it takes five times as long as it would do if I'd done it daily

Please help - Stolen Shirehorse-----NOW FOUND FANTASTIC NEWS

Excellent news. Lets hope a few celebratory pints of the wonderful Bradfield beers are drunk tonight! -
Thats how I do my proper steaks, I usually render down a bit of the fat from the steak and fry it in that before sticking in the oven. The ones I have at the moment are too thin for that

My partner, the pub, eating, the toilet, a good book, Torchwood and The Colour of Magic this weekend.

Thanks for the suggestions, the baked beef olives was just the sort of thing I had in mind but might save that suggestion for another day when I have company. I have some oven roasted veggies that I need to use up so I think I might flash fry some thin strips of beef with red pesto then add the veggies and some pasta. I've had a look in the fridge and there is also a jar of harrisa open which would make a pretty powerful marinade if I wanted to spice things up a bit. No doubt I'll get another couple of idea wandering around Tescos later on.

I'm off and am taking the whole of next week off as well

It all depends on how the criticism is given. If it is meant kindly, as a developmental opportunity, by a trusted friend then its something to go away and think about. If its delivered in an aggressive manner by someone you have only just met then I'd be less likely to listen and take on board what they say. In fact I'd be more likely to punch them in the face

I have a couple of packs of frying steak that were reduced so I snaffled them and put them in my freezer thinking I would have them midweek with a bit of veg. It has now come to the weekend and I still have them but am now thinking of doing something a bit more inventive with them, maybe rolling them with some stuffing and frying them or something. Any inventive ideas out there? It seems a bit boring just to fry them

Olive stoners!

Does anyone have to ask their boss or work colleagues for permission to go to the loo? I ask because a friend of mine said that she had to and I just found it quite unbelievable in this day and age. I think if someone told me I had to ask permission before going to the loo I'd tell them to shove it. (Unless I was a co-pilot of a plane, I think it would then be reasonable to inform the captain that I was taking a leak )
