Welcome back sweet, I hope you had a lovely time! Did you miss the 40C in Blighty while you were in sunny Spain?
Good thing his missus wasn't there! She is kinda huggable thoughWelcome back sweet, I hope you had a lovely time! Did you miss the 40C in Blighty while you were in sunny Spain?
As mentioned, the biggest thing you missed was your fantastic ladies team booting us out of the Euros and the lovely William breaking protocol by hugging your team capital after their victory.
No one had started a nuclear war yet, so theres that I suppose too.
Hi to the rest of you lovely Tommies too
My apologies, Charles. I too am a southerner. And I've never eaten Doner Kebab. But I did used to work with a chap who, during his varsity days, worked part time at a certain Northern brewery. It had a lasting effect on him. Several years later, he still insisted that cod should only be eaten with curry sauce and a glass of Newkie Brown.
hard to get actual sausages here, too... the closest they have are 'brats' and they are limited in variety. hot days like these i do miss a nice chilled browse along the sausage aisle of Asda. god, loved me a kebab now and again, with garlic sauce and all the salad trimmings
Ok...but what biscuits do you miss?
I never knew there was sausage aisle in Asda..I'm fairly sure my local Co-op never had one.hard to get actual sausages here, too... the closest they have are 'brats' and they are limited in variety. hot days like these i do miss a nice chilled browse along the sausage aisle of Asda. god, loved me a kebab now and again, with garlic sauce and all the salad trimmings
the best curry sauce i had was from the local Chinese shop and was perfect to dip their chips into.
over here, 'fries' are most often covered with a ton of stuff... sauces, cheese, bits and bobs, which leads to soggy chips. blech. NEVER had anything like a proper chip shop chip in 5 years in the US
A man after my own heart... a doner kebab on a Saturday night. then the last bus home and the kebab crust on a Sunday morning before going to club at 11am for killer darts and pool.
Fig Rolls
Newkie Brown....aka a bottle of dog!My apologies, Charles. I too am a southerner. And I've never eaten Doner Kebab.

Someone here liked Garabaldi.

Yes they were quite thin without sugar on the outside. Easy to keep in a pocket for later in bed.Oh the chewy ones with the currants inside? I liked those too
I remember when I was little staying at a family friends house while my Mum was away and they gave me some kinda biscuit with currants in. I picked out the currants and dropped them over the bedhead. I wonder if they ever found them?!Oh the chewy ones with the currants inside? I liked those too

How can you not like Lemon puffs, my favourite, I buy them in bulk if I see them in the shops.
