    I have a bit of a thing about eating out at Indian/Chinese ropy places...I always have to have the vegetable option as I can't stand the thought of what meat they put in it _pale_

    The fact it comes from an animal does not necessarily make it meat...

    I did snigger a bit when the learning mentor said 'What was I trying to learn you today Ryan', and Ryan looked at her completely horrified and said 'do you mean what were you trying to TEACH me today?'. :rotfl:

    Good on him. I'd have been horrified too...

    I'll give my mum a ring in a bit, I keep thinking each time he goes in that this will be his 'time' but he keeps coming back home but he is so poorly these days - glaucoma, mild diabetes, his sight is very poor and the lung problems on top. He was put down the mines in the war when apparently there was literally a 'lottery' of men chosen rather than sending them to fight.
