Im so tired.
I can smell the weekend though.
Might be nice today but it's going to be pissing it down tomorrow.

I've ordered some party favours for next weekends "hen do" so that will set me back a bit. Might do a bit shopping for some new threads.

unless it has sheep in it is not a shepherd's pie

What if it was a cheese and onion pie owned by a person who tends and rears sheep?

then it's a shepherd's cheese and onion pie
but if he gives it to a non-shepherd it's just a cheese and onion pie.

You have to appreciate the distinction between ownership and nomenclature.

I can appreciate that, if you can appreciate the distinction between nomenclature and folk etymology.

Does folk etymology mean lentils?

(localboy purveyor of pisspoor puns, Fri 6 Jun 2014, 10:54, Reply)

It means that Shepherd's Pie having to contain mutton is a relatively recent definition.

This is quite interesting
it seems a version made with lentils would be known as a "shepherdless pie".
(localboy purveyor of pisspoor puns, Fri 6 Jun 2014, 11:03, Reply)

I'd probably just call it a lentil pie

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Fri 6 Jun 2014, 11:04, Reply)

Yup.

if it doesn't contain peasants it's not a cottage pie

( Kroney, Fri 6 Jun 2014, 10:37, Reply)

Peasants dont live in cottages these days.
