Nah, you don’t want to do that. Dig a bit deeper so your body won’t be found for a bit longer.
The giant soulless Asda in Welwyn Garden City was where I got the snack foods for my settin’ fire to fings experiment.

A propos Yeller Sticker food: Tonight, Chez Carinthia, I will be eating the last of the pork burger, with creamed spinach wot was reduced to 20p in Tesco.
I also got 500g of prepared fresh pineapple (NOT for pizza) for 50p
Feeling Elfier already…

We have just had a steak-and-kidney pie which I bought ready-made in a farm-shop a couple of weeks ago. Very good it was too.

That is very true. I have to make sure that he doesn’t become too spare, while keeping an eye on my weight 
Having said that, I feel an awful lot ‘more the thing’ since commencing iodine supplements. Maybe it’s a touch of voodoo, but I’ll persist, nonetheless.
Lots of luvverly stuff being prepared in the Cellar! Happy sigh.

I’ve read the last few posts and tried to decide with whom I wish to dine this evening but the truth is I’ve spent a day at the races and am too full up with junk food (classy junk food but still…) to eat anything much.
I try to resist but I do admit I rather love the occasional indulgence in junk food.

I imagine that we all have a spare cyber stomach, TFM. Plus - there’s no competition regarding food (or anything else, insofar as I know) so should you land at the Fishly-Dunnock’s forra snake and pygmy pie, or Twellsy’s for BBQ pork, or at Chez Gus for yummy chicken, alles ist gut.
Tell us about posh junk?

Ooooh, yes. I get rare, but almost irresistible, kebab kravings.
Though why kebabs are classed as ‘junk food’ eludes me. Surely grilled meat, unleavened bread and (avert yer eyes, Fishy) lashings of salad is a pretty well balanced meal.
Garlic sauce and chilli sauce, obvs.

I had Manx Dragon sausages made from rare breed Tamworth pork in a big roll, and er, chips (nothing esp classy about those but I love chips), and stem ginger ice cream, and scrummy pizza (yes inc anchovies) from a clay oven in the back of a van.
Not all one after the other you understand, spread throughout the day.
Oh, and I had some rhubarb fizz, which was rather nice. And manx gin.

Me too. I’ve never understood why burgers are automatically classed as junk either - they can be, but they don’t have to be at all.

That sounds quite delicious. Mind if I tuck in?
I’m off to watch Montalbano with a bowl of melon and a G&t with which to distract myself.

Help yourself, I particularly recommend the sausages.

I am here to confirm that what I saw a couple of days ago was almost certainly a black squirrel, because on the valedictory walk this evening (sob sob) we saw not one but two of them; definitely squirrels, and definitely black, running across the path in front of us and then pausing for a quick boxing-match and a scurry among some fallen leaves before suddenly realising we were there and rushing off to hide up a tree.
DDD is the only dog I have ever met who would have stood on the path and watched them, with her stick in her mouth and her head on one side!

DDD is a wonder of mannerliness, and please accept a tissue annan 'ug. Or seversl. And please flurfle the dear girl from me.
Exotic squirrelry is small compensation.

Harking back to unkind squirrel-related German-teases, I now have - and yes, it does serve me right - a most persistent Ohrwurm.
'First you take yer German gently by the hand
Point him at the photie: he will not understand ’
Aye, I’m still working on the rest of it. A small prize, or possibly prayer, for the first to identify the tune.
