Prawn - cockroach of the sea
I've always liked brussel sprouts, have come to like broccoli, am on the fence about olives and don't care for cauliflower.

I HATE rhubarb.

I don't like rhubarb
But my landlady made rhubarb and ginger jam and it was beautiful.

My parents had a fruit cage
and extensive veg beds, as well as several apple and pear trees - I used to whinge about 'sour English fruits' as a boy but I am coming around to gooseberries, rhubarb etc. My mother had a whole separate chest freezer for her garden produce, fucking hundreds of Kilner jars full of pickled and preserved fruit and veg.....and then there was the pickles & jams cupboard, which without exaggeration would usually house 50+ jars of each.

It was a bit much, to be honest.

Apart from celery and the marzipan/licquorice family I like pretty much everything.

Did they have particularly vicious fruit?

Not really, although our garden did have a military theme of sorts
Our garage was originally stables, and there were arrowslits in the walls. It was pretty fucking ace now I come to think of it.

Is this an oblique way of calling me a shirter?
It had better not be old boy. I have swords, you know.

Swordssssssss
You can't just have one can you?

Anyway I have a battle axe. It just needs a handle.

I have the sword
worn by one of my antecedents to the coronation of George V. My father aoplogised to me when he gave it to me, because the blade is a little bent - from beating his younger brother round the head with it, he said.

I feel that if I ever met you
I should tug my forelock.

Except I don't have one. Will a curtsey do?

You sound posh Monty.
Will you knight me? Not in a shirty way obviously.
(, Thu 4 Feb 2010, 10:09, Reply)
The poshness has rather fizzled out, unfortunately.
My father was born into a minor stately home in the Scottish borders with servants etc, and his mother's family used to co-own Pringle - but all that has translated into precisely fuck all in real terms.

Did you get free Pringles then?
That would have been WIN.

I'm not!
Ask Barry Cryer.

I did find it amusing that Alan Partridge's 'peephole Pringle' was part of my family's legacy, I must admit.

I hate celery, marzipan and liquorice
And love jams and chutneys.
I reckon I'm the bastard kid your mum had when she had an affair with a commoner.

Marizpan is soooo good

Chutney is also good, chutney ferrets less so.

Are you my brother?

My Mum was exactly the same fruit cage, apple trees, peach tree, pears etc, they moved after 37 years in the same house, and some of the stuff at the bottom of the chest freezer was around 37 years old...we didn't eat it.

Do you have an obsession with Nazis and midgets
and Japanese horror?

If you do then yes, I am indeed your brother.

Nazi's and midgets yes

Japanese horror less so...

I hate cheese
except on pizzas and in toasted sandwiches, but only if I make the sandwich myself.

The stuff mostly just freaks me out. I've got real issues with it.

Wouldn't touch it as a kid
Came round to it as an adult. Apparently it's all to do with whether you can digest it properly and you don't develop all the relevant enzymes until later on. Try it every so often, you may find you like it of a sudden.

I couldn't live without cheese

I had some in little French restaurant near where I live, it was so soft it was acyually a liquid at room temperature, le nyoms!
