Re: The fry-up of correctness

I was out for a meal yesterday, I had fish and chips with mushy peas served in a separate pot, first thing I did was pour them out. They’re just making washing up for themselves .

Re: The fry-up of correctness

Nah, I'm currently sulking about your blantant pancakeist stance. Agreed they're not a fry up but your tone was offensive to those of us that are non-breakfast-binary. Pancakes & maple syrup are a regular weekend treat in this house and I won't hear a bad word against them. So there. Pancakes h...

Thought you sold that? Changed your mind or just not flogged it yet?
No interest but every time I drive it I don't want to part with it. I'll be saving money on the new commute at least.

I've only ever done 1 outdoor kart race - a 4hr team endurance event with twin-engined karts...erm... somewhere around North England. It was some time ago. Warm-up & quali were dry - by the end of that my neck and ribs were aching a bit from the lateral-G's. I was thinking "shit - I'm neve...
