Tell us something really trivial about your life (vol 25)

[TheChampers]

It's half time in the FA cup semi-final. The last semi-final the Villa won was on the day of Princess Senior's christening in 2000. The party was "at home", so I rigged up a portable crt telly in the garage so that the menfolk could discreetly retreat at polite intervals to catch up on proceedings, one or two at a time, so I thought.

It went to a penalty shootout; there must have been 30 plus males in the garage

Of course you can. What was I thinking?

Shipham's are indeed still flogging jars of mystery meat paste in a bewildering array of 'flavours'.

Oh, I remember now, Mrs B serving bloater paste Toast Treats as the fish course almost caused a riot at the Members' Dinner back in '13.

Black tie dinner, bloater paste. It's a wonder anyone lived.

Today has been enlivened by the words Decrepitude, Improvident and Querulous.

[DickyC]

You wouldn't be taking the acronym out of me - Decrepitude, Improvident and Querulous - young elephant, now, would you?

[iva cosworth]

Those 3 aren't even real words.......are they ?

They seem horribly real to me.

[DickyC]

Not so much horribly. More ghastlyly.

[hidetheelephants]

Does your middle name begin with Q? I are intrigued.

[pad58]

Bit better now thanks.

Which is right up there with Sandwich Spread.

I wonder if you can still buy Sandwich Spread.

Ooh I used to love sandwich spread, havent had it in years

[iva cosworth]

Fairly certain Sandwich Spread is still on sale at your local food

emporium.

Always thought it quite pricey for a small jar.

ION.....I'm got indigestion due to gluttony.

[iva cosworth]

Grand prix the film is on BBC4 ,missed most of it........

[iva cosworth]

"Querulous".....complaining in a petulant or whining manner....

[iva cosworth]

Have a TT exclusive pic before I depart



An old relic and an old Abbey.

[DickyC]

Er, excuse me, but I got up, drove to Wales, opened up the office, made a cup of tea and I'm still first in here.

What's going on?

[hidetheelephants]

It's nearly bacon sandwich time. It's sunny and flat calm; most discombobulating.
