Np was typo. Royal baby.

Should I drink this and buy more on Friday?

Also......what would the perfect wife get her man and her man's friend to eat I'm wondering. Very late at night.....l.home made kebabs? (Think homemade curry might be just too much in this heat?).

The Boss isn't really a beery bloke, and when he meets the chaps its always in London for beer and curry. (Where he drinks staggeringly less than the others and worries about the food more than the others I think). I was even wondering if the perfect wife just buys some frozen pizza or something ....

Hamish is right. My mate worked at a brewery in Nikksterville and they used to automatically weigh the packs of cans as they came off the belt. If they were too lighht they were sonld off to staff the same day for virtually nothing as "underfills". The empty space would be air and the cans had to be drunk within a week or they would oxidise and become undrinkable. They were certain about the speed it went off.

Not eating curry at night time? on a hot day? Okay I know chewie said he didn't ike curry but in the evening a curry's a magnificent dish. Mind you reheated in the morning it's an even more magnificent dish.

If you're making it yourself, use theTakeaway Secret book, or cheat and use Patak's curry pastes. I saw crates of it being delivered to my favouritye takeaway once and you can't beat them.

Equal parts of Biryani paste and quick curry paste. I wouldn't trust myself to taste it before they arrive else I might just eat it all.:(

I just remembered another bit about that Heir Hunters story ... the two step-sons who didn't inherit as the step-mother died intestate.... she HAD made a will and they knew which solicitors it was at - but they'd closed down and there was no trace of her will.

So - even if you DO make a will, get copies and make sure everybody has copies ... and everybody to keep an eye on the solicitor in case they close down so they can get the original straight away

Its that it will be just before bed really( I expect them to be eating at tha hour in the early morning that they should know better than to eat at.

I'll also e jealous ( still cannot eat 'spice' or 'hot' stuff on my pills. In summer we usually have a lovely turnip curry. Bu not this year. ( and for mean with beer I 'd make meat)

It is extremely warm - windows and door wide open, hair up to avoid hot-ness, light cotton dress, and still it's very hot. 27 degrees inside, 26 outside. Phew!

Isaac just came upstairs complaining he can't sleep, and I have considerable sympathy.

It's been cool all day here. Not cold/cool, but not hot/sticky.

You need those wet towels round your head.... although the actual logistics of that means it's too hard to bother.

Men ... probably can't go wrong with some slabs of raw meat to chuck on a barbie. No point faffing about. Couple of lumps of meat, chuck them a spatula - they'll be happy as Larry.
