    Cider and Quality Street....not a good combination, rising, so I think I'll stick to Igor's reindeer punch. At least I know what's in that. I think.

    It's the one drink I know that has true amnesiac properties - you have the hangover form hell, then you pass out and when you wake up again you have forgotten all about it. Last batch he made was a bit off, though, probably because he didn't scrape the antlers out properly.

    Ok, we have Quality Street, BigMumma's chillied sprout thing, reindeer punch.......who's bringing the Pringles and the cheesy pineapples?

    Sprouts Mexy Kane? That must be Brussels Sprouts with chilli, garlic and beans galore.....won't need any petroleum for the Tardis tonight then.
    Thought we'd better start experimenting with Green Transport--make it cheaper getting around with all the celebrations coming up in the next 12 months. Liz's 60th crowning, a few sports days & the like, & especially the farmers singalongs.

    I hope you won't think us suvenas 'strange' when I tell you that a lot of parents must admire the work of that fella who's in "4 Weddings" & "Knotting Hill"; they watch his films most weekends because as you pass by the windows, you can hear them calling 'Hu-yyyyewwwwwwwww-eeee'.

    Pity there's low cloud--I fancied seeing the Taj Mahal by moonlight. *sigh* Another time then, hopefully when the kazbah is open & I can pick up some lovely sari.
    Where to next Navigator, & pass me a Pony with two cherries on a green sword please! It may be a Bank Holiday, but I still want to keep up my 5-a-day.

    Olives stuffed with garlic? Home made pate with port in it? I promise you I did not let Igor anywhere near it. What else can I get rid of.....left over mini sausages with bacon round them? Home made Christmas cake? Home cooked ham? All washed down with liquorice vodka and limoncello? I am determined not to go shopping again, we should be able to have a good party with all our leftovers.....and with Big Mumma's Sprouts Mexy Kane the Tardis will be self propelling so no fuel costs......Where's the DJ? Music, Maestro.....something suitable for the occasion if you please....

    Cheese straws....yum. Did you say Pony?????That was the first alcofrolic drink I had (well, five of them) when I was 14. I circumnavigated my way home and had to have a little lie down.....ah, happy days!
