"Ooh, that's nice Bom, very Miami Vice. How much do you reckon?"

"Dunno, about a quarter of a mil at a guess. Maybe more"

"Sh*t the futtin bed. Maybe you could think about an inflatable dinghy, they might do a Buzz Lightyear or Captain America one. It'd go with your onesies"

It's a lovely old thing pequod, I wouldn't be too sure about what to do with those sail / sheet things though whatever they're called.

I can just about manage a sailboard alright, when it comes to a full size boat I really need an engine of some description.

Tis easy enough to fit an iron tops'l and many already have 'em!

I would recommend it Bomma, old chap, if you is moving to that there Nofolk?

Maybe give this a go, from where I borrowed the photo, for a taste of the adventure?

Calm down. I'm sure this was a miss planing/plening/pfennig and any reference to depraved practices, will shortly be corrected...

Whilst I've nibbled the breasts of many local peasants, I don't think cooking them is allowed smile

I gave up plucking pheasants many years ago.
Far too labour intensive: far easier and quicker to just skin 'em.

Call me a Philistine if you like, but it's all the same in the casserole pot, jointed up with diced onion, garlic, swede, potato, carrots, bay leaves, mixdurbs, stock and a generous glug of red wine ( screw top of course ).

Come to think of it, I haven't had a brace for a bloody long time now.
I must have a word with Phil the Poacher next time I see him down at the Earl of Trivton's Arms.
I reckon the way things are going with empty supermarket shelves, we'll all need to start dining on local wildlife, which is hard if you live in the concrete jungle, where the menu choice is mostly pigeon or vagrant.
Whatever, the key to survival is keeping a broad view of what is palatable and what is best left beside the road for the crows and maggots to clear up.

FTFY

However, you are quite correct Glenners, and with panic buying imminent a sharpening up of ones survival course might be quite prudent, dear!

Currently watching The One Show, and Natalie Imbruglia telling of her search for a sperm donor for her IVF baby.

She only had to ask....
I could have saved her a fortune on all that expensive laboratory procedure... sperm
. And I might even have offered her a special reduced hourly rate.

Pie was good as usual and I'm being offered ice cream as I type.
The peasant bit was a nod towards my peasant neighbour that has now identified himself to me and Eric our mayor that he his a bit st crazy full on racist.
Life has been hell here this last 48 hours and Eric is going to the police!

When I went on Thesday they said it not serious enough! Since then Eric has had words with him and his mrs and has come to the same conclusion as me.

I never new I had so much restraint but it's our life here in question and I'm not giving the peasant a chance to bleat victim which he has done before.
