    Horace reporting - doing a good impersonation of a drenched rat:mad: ruddy weather, it started lashing it down the minute I stepped out of the stationery shop:mad:

    I know - I was called in to ASDA this morning - did my round in lashing rain and a near 'hurricane'. :mad: :mad:

    Now I'm back at home the sun is 'cracking the cobbles' :confused::confused:

    Bumpa rump steak isnt as nice as serlion.

    Rump steak is certainly the tastiest cut, but you do sacrifice 'tenderness' for taste. The French do a nice 'Pave de rumpsteak' which is nice and thick, but you need to cut it like 'Parma Ham' or you'll be chewing for a week. :rolleyes:

    All this talk of steaks - I don't know anything about steaks:confused: . I know about
    stakes (for driving into vampires hearts,
    stakes (for tying witches to before burning (no personal experince of this))
    stakes (for holding a fence up to keep the baby chicks safe)
    stakes (in a company - thats my job though) and
    stakes (in gambling and betting - but thats a bad idea too.)

    I'd like a 'Humvie' too, along with a nice little country mansion, six months holiday, twice a year and soft toilet paper. :rolleyes:

    Still - nice to dream. :rotfl: :rotfl:
