Safety first
Want to avoid getting run-over whilst crossing the road?

simply steal an owl egg and raise the baby owl to hoot once when it sees a car approaching and twice when it is clear to cross.

Then, fashion a klu klux klan-style hood out of leather and super glue the owls feet to the top of it. Make sure you put this on whenever you leave the house.

VOILA - you are now safe from becoming just another motoring statistic.

Genuine Top Tip
I used to work with a bloke who'd keep a bar of standard soap in the top of his tool-box. This was not for washing his hands.. This was for preventing the accumulation of dirt and grease under his fingernails as he worked.

Before starting the day, he'd sit and carefully scratch at the well-sorn grooves in the soap thus filling the under-fingernail-gap with solid soap.

At the end of the day's work, he'd wash his hands and wash the soap out.

His fingernails were always spotless...

Remeber that next time your'e about to scurry under the car, or to work in the garden: It works a treat, and a bar of soap with scratch marks in it is always a good conversation point.

South Pole
If you're stranded at the South Pole, don't hunt Polar Bears.

Go for Penguins instead. if you can get the wrappers off you might live.

if you have to assassinate a former Russian Spy:
remember to carefully leave a trail of radioactive toxins across England, as if you kept the stuff in a leaky fucking carrier bag, just so the good ol' gullible british Bobby can follow it and feel useful.

If you like, make a trail the whole way to the fucking Kremlin then sit back and watch hilarious incompetence ensue.

my top tips
suffering from the runs after a heavy night drinking and unable to control your bowel? - fashion a nappie out of a plastic carrier bag to wear in the shower in case you have an accident. This will make you avoid having to stand in your own watery-based turd.

Some drunken old cock shouting at you for "stealing my chair"? - punch him in the cock.

Hiccup Remedy
Breath in until your lungs feel relatively full, then without breathing out in between take a further short breath in until they feel like they are going to burst . Hold this breath for as long as you can, then release slowly.

This should flatten out your diaphragm and stop it from jumping which is what causes the hiccups in the first place.

Umm...
Ice AND a slice? Not me! What a waste of valuable quaffing time. Do what Mrs Mission does and freeze ickle bits of lemonny goodness within the icey cubes prior to a piss- up. They are so much of a talking point, that no-body minds that the gin is, in fact, the cheapest fucking rubbish that Lidl's sells. Having said that, the bottled pils lager stuff from there is fucking immense. Move over Wifebeater!

For tender, fragrant chicken breasts/legs/wings:
Marinate the meat in lemon juice for at least an hour. For delicious roast chicken: stick half an unwaxed lemon up its chuff (I also add half an onion, a large sprig of fresh thyme, two cloves of garlic, two chillis) and then coat the whole thing in olive oil, fresh ground black pepper, large crystal rock salt & ground herbs.

Yum

Up the choco alley everytime.
If you want to convice a woman to partake in anal sex with you and she will only take it up the normal'un. Take her in the 'doggy' position then lamp her over the back of the head with a heavy object.
No more objections.

Getting away with murder...
As an add on to Jonny Fatman's impecable advice on killing someone I thought I would add this tip.

Get about one pound, half a kilo, of tobacco and soak it in water for a few days until the water looks like the tea of the devil. Lift out the tobacco and strain hard into the "tea".

Put the container of water in either and oven on its LOWEST setting or leave it in a warm place to dry out. You will be left witha small amount of thick liquid like dark honey. This is almost pure nicotine. The stuff that gives you the buzz from ciggies.

Using a pippette or eye dropper, place about 5-8 drops into a cup of coffee for your victim and watch them keel over in a few minutes from heart failure.

This would work especially well if your victim smoked and drank heavily as the Doctors would simply assume natural death. Even if they did decide to test for toxins the raised levels of nicotine would most likely be attributed to the smoking over the years.

Not that I would do this of course. It's just a thought...

more culinary tips
- the fastest way to peel a lump of ginger is with a teaspoon (just scrape away with the end of the spoon and it'll all come off easily rather than losing half the lump by using a knife).

- fastest way to peel garlic is to put a clove under a flat blade, hit the blade with the base of your palm, chop the bottom off and the skin should pull straight off.

- whole punnet of cherry tomatoes + balsamic vinegar + salt + olive oil + roast in oven for an hour or so = easiest way to make you look like a genius in the kitchen. goes with everything pretty much.

- if you pay less than £5 for a chicken, it'll taste like shit (or nothing).
