Evening folks!!
How are we all today?? I'm having a fab time here in Engerland. Today I went to the seaside and just about froze my tits off. I also dropped my bag in the mud when I slipped which was clever of me. But I've had a grand day. :)

If you haven't had a good day, why not??

Which seaside did you go to and why?
It's not seaside weather - even us Brits know that.

Just went to see it. :P

Did you paddle?
Or have candyfloss? or a stick of rock?
(Colonel Santiago Introduced surprised kitty to the world., Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:02, Reply)

nope, nope and nope.
went for a good walk instead.

Well, you've still got those things to tick off in that case.
And, like Chompy said down vthere somewhere, you need to have a fry-up, and fish & chips, and a roast dinner too.
(Colonel Santiago Introduced surprised kitty to the world., Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:06, Reply)

also rock pooling

I have a roast dinner every sunday at home. but without yorkies.

Been there
But not often. There's only so long you can spend looking at cliffs.
( Hdjejjwsjdjjf LOOK, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:05, Reply)

I've had a nice enough day.
Did you have fish and chips at the sea-side?

What else have you done in the 36 hours you've been in England? Noticed any amusing cultural differences?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:51, Reply)

were you wearing a cagoule at the same time
if so, you totally had the England experience.

I have a meh day, I'm off with poorliness

You still feeling rough Crunchy?
Have you managed to eat anything yet?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:52, Reply)

yeah, for some reason
the only things that i can face are protien based. Going for a bacon butty now - hopefully I can handle the bread, now.
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:54, Reply)

Have you been well enough to do any marking?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:54, Reply)

nah, it's all reports I need to do
they've sorted it so i can do them when I get back
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:56, Reply)

Well you might as well milk this for a few more days then!
Get the illness out of the way, then treat yourself to an extra day off so you can do something fun.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:57, Reply)

nah, stuff will just pile up
I'll probably go in tomorrow
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:58, Reply)

Well make sure you are well enough, nothing worse than being off sick and rushing back to work only to be ill again.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:59, Reply)

my problem is if I don't declare myself well
I'll have to concede and go to the doctors and I don't like going to the doctors. Thus I will be fine. (also just managed to eat the bacon butty, so that is proof)
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:00, Reply)

No one likes going to the doctors
As generally, having to go to see the dr means you are ill.

But if you are poorly, then maybe they are the best person to see?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:02, Reply)

no, I'm fine
I ate a bacon butty. Proof if proof be need be

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:12, Reply)

Whole-meal or granary?

Snow is probably all the more fun if you live somewhere hot and rarely get to see it too!

The day is improving
I've managed to sort out 2 big problems that I had, and I'm taking the day off sick tomorrow and then travelling to Madrid.

Are you in London on Sunday? I'm in Worthing on Sunday :) Have you seen Brighton yet? Do you want to meet there and have a nice coffee (or beer)?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 17:58, Reply)

I'm not throwing it
I've got JeffAids and despite that, I've been coming to work and done 10h/day; but now I'm almost dying, and I don't want to be all fucked up for the interview, so I'm taking it easy tomorrow.

Get yourself some soup have a hot bath and keep yourself hydrated.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:03, Reply)

I had a meatball soup for lunch today
mmmmm

Drinking around 3l of liquid/day.

I don't do baths, sorry, just showers. I feel too bad about wasting water. But I put the heating up in my room 30min before going to bed (and then switch it off) and I've been treating myself using the electric blanket for a bit longer than usual :)

Hot and spicy food can really help shift a cold.
Why not have a dead hot curry?

I wish I was closer to that one Indian place I went to that one time.

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:40, Reply)

Do you ever cook curries if local Indian restaurants are hard to find?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:41, Reply)

I bought a kit once, chicken korma
was pretty spicy

bogus official was all "we raise our babies on korma, man up" or something I don't know
but it was hawt
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:47, Reply)

This is a fairly easy curry recipe

will deffo have to try it out

If some of the ingredients are hard to source
I'll find you a different recipe to try with 'easier to find' stuff!
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 19:06, Reply)

I think the madras would be easier to make than the korma, tbh
it just gives me an excuse to visit the world foods market at the weekend!!
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 19:08, Reply)

It'll be quite a hot dish, so careful if you decide to add any extra spice!
Also, coconut milk is your friend and will cool down the sauce, as long as you don't add it when the sauce is boiling, as it'll curdle.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 19:11, Reply)

oh cool, ta

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 19:16, Reply)

Hahaha!
Korma is one of the mildest currys there is.
( girlinthehole, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 18:56, Reply)

to be fair I did add extra cayenne
but it was still hot

I never used to eat anything spicy, not used to it. Don't laugh at me :((((
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 17 Nov 2010, 19:00, Reply)

You do get more tolerant the more often you eat spicy food.
If you ate a curry every week, you'd soon find the Korma a bit bland want to to try something hotter.

God, I really fancy having a curry this evening, I could stuff myself silly with a hot curry, nann bread, popadums, rice, dhal and pickles.

Curses for deciding to have salmon, a jacket spud and salad.

I could eat curry every night.

haha I totally had salad for lunch
I think dinner tonight is more deer steak
which was fucking awesome last night

wonder if I could make a curry out of that? is it illegal?

Basically it's my roommates ex and her sister doing a bunch of name calling, whore, etc.
Then when the person defends themselves it's "don't assume I'm talking about you I didn't write a name on here"

it's very ridiculous, lots of "don't be immature" running around but really, isn't calling someone a whore immature?
if you can follow, it goes like this
x dated y off and on for a couple of years, then x got with z and stayed with z for three years
z breaks up with x and is calling y a whore [for the past three years] although y had nothing to do with it
