The revenge of the stripey socks - a DFW adventure

Gallygirl - NO food related issues - NONE?? Wow

Eggs and beans a big one here and anything soggy - can't bare soggy stuff - I think it why I don't like cake. ergh soggy central. I don't mind stuff that is naturally soggy (ie bread sauce) but can't bear stuff that has sogginess set upon it (e.g how the toast gets if someone puts scrambled eggs on it and it goes smushy) bleugh

Otherwise I am quite normal (runs away quickly to avoid a barrage of you're not normals) - *sighs* we all know I'm like many of us - thank you Karen for introducing me to the world of Edward Monkton:




I have to say Gallygirl - I laughed at the mechanical toy freeing - I guess that's only fair isnt it - they must get very fed up in corners.

No, none. Apart from compulsive over-eating. And egg whites being devil's snot, unless in a fried egg with crispy edges. (OK in meringues though, am not that daft )

Obviously that doesn't apply to the stupid drumming Beefeater soldier ones, if they can't work out how to turn round they deserve to march on the spot in a corner till they die.

*pops in to share weird food story*

i used to know someone who would eat his food by colour. he would start with a colour and everything of that colour had to go before he could move onto the next one. the problem came when he ordered something like fish in batter cos the fish and the batter are different colours :eek:

*waves to everyone and pops back out again*

well i'm at the start of a week off, so i need to get wriggling, got a couple of swimming sessions planned and need to finish covering the sofas, so far the one i'm thinking will be the hardest one has two new arm covers and the front bottom bit has been attached, next i think it's joining the front and back, and the arms to the front, think there's more tricky times ahead. I also need to sort some stuff out to take to charity/get rid off. (common theme in this life i guess is getting rid of stuff to make things less cluttered).
Just noticed that 4 squid is likely to be paid by quidco, just wish More than would move from validated to paid there's 150 squid sat there and i could really do with it this month.

Sorry to hear about quidco being slow - and you're a lovely friend.........
