Are you deliberately being stupid?

It was advertised as steak and kidney pie. You had to actively chose it if that was what you wanted.

How could someone possibly be offended by kidney in something advertised as steak and kidney pie?

Because they appreciate the taste benefits but would rather not look at an animal's pi55 filter?

As I came up with the idea I would like you to eat a fresh tomato first.

I don't have one on me, but I will certainly try that when I get home.

To make it a credible test make sure some of the juices come into contact with the wound.

Didn't really work. The only fresh tomato I could find was a cherry one. Just pushed it past the lip and ate it.

Limited discomfort.

You haven't really made a decent effort in the name of research. You needed juice to come in contact with the wound. Used to send my old man up the wall in the months after his op.

I don't suppose they do vodka lemon sorbets in your canteen?

Riveting stuff.....

No, they don't.

It looks even worse this morning. I actually look a little like Leslie Ash.

@ TopHat; sean and I are enjoying ourselves. You don't have to join in. You could always carry on flirting with C_S if you're bored.

Did it require stitches or are you just sporting a fat lip?

No stitches, just a huge bottom lip. Think of Bubba in Forrest Gump and you're not far off.

You better tuck that in. Gonna get it caught on a tripwire......

Tina, stop giving TopHat some lip!

Very droll, Julius. Very droll.

I think we need to get a game of sheep going on these boards. I actually did some work yesterday which worried me greatly.

Definitely! Though don't get Tina to run or we'll be playing past Xmas....

I will do it I just need to look back and remember the rules

I had to cut short the Culture Cup or that would have been into 2014.

I am going to do a new music cup next year when I've had a rest. Not sure you will want to play though, TH. Meatloaf and Whitney Houston? I might just ban you from taking part instead....

Music quizzes are awesome and Union's participation pretty much guarantees none of us can come bottom of the league.

My vote will go to Love Will Tear Us Apart by TopHat & Tina

Love will tear us apart, Don't look back in anger and Hurt will all be banned from the get go.

As will TopHat if he gives me too much sh*t over the next few weeks.

Surely we would miss the Whitney nominations though

I can't believe no-one gave him any grief over that.

I would like to think he was tactically picking songs that guaranteed him votes but I actually think TopHat does listen to Meatloaf and Whitney Houston.

Genuinely flabbergasted at the dismissive attitude of ignorance towards one of the greatest R&B recording artists of the last 100 years..........

Flabbergasted enough to leave the board?

I could do a 10 round game of sheep but I can't replicate those bl00dy spreadsheets on the forum. Fine with excel. Was thinking 2 music, 2 film 2 sport 2 blah blah etc etc very much in paperbag's mould.

When shall i get it going? or not?

I know. You must be comforted by the fact that he (Peter Andre) has a new reality series though?

Michaels' last comment was almost enough to push me over the edge.........

Yes she may have been a d!ck, but she had more talent than any individual artist operating today.

Little Mix?

My old man has a nice lawnmower, does not mean his garden is any good.

Would you bang the pig? I'd probably do it for a tenna.

No firgging idea, I have a yard, as such lawnmowers are not particularly on my radar.

If gardens were measured on the quality of their associated apparatus then indeed his garden would be considered good.

Rather that than being graded on a nice pair of tulips.

Ah, happy days. You've made me all nostalgic for the North, Jeff.

Only northerners have 'yards'.

Whitney's first album was actually pretty good. You could hear the talent there. And see it on the back cover.

Heathen. The quality of the cut is definitely down to the quality of the mower. Not only that there are several very different types of mower. If you wanted a decent lawn you'd definitely be cutting it with a cylinder mower as opposed to a rotary.

I dream of ownign a Dennis mower.

Can't really be arsed to start a new thread, so Has Anyone Been To Jersey?  Going there next weekend and the first restaurant I've looked at doesn't have a menu available online.  The hotel looks like a sh1thole, especially the restaurant bit, so would be interested to hear any advice such as places to eat, go etc.

No.

My Mum's scottish neighbour used to run a hotel there until she retired to Bournemouth.

You really are a b'stard.

Thanks, michaels. That's just the sort of information I was looking for.

Hopefully Rowley can tell me about the time he saw Villa lose 3-1 to Jersey in the InterToto cup.

And my mate is currently living there.

Wrong.

He didn't ask if you'd been, he asked if 'anyone' had been. Therefore the answer is yes.....

I haven't been to Jersey either. Hope that helps.

Excellent. Cheers, Marx, and TopHat as well. My Guide To Jersey is really coming along.

Jersey Royals have been grown on Jersey for over 130 years. Today there are approximately 20 island farmers who grow Jersey Royals, many of whom grow potatoes and no other crops. The potatoes are grown on approximately 16,500 vergees (approx. 7,300 acres).
