    As I will be a creature of the night tonight and for the next two nights (i.e. at work) I am checking in early to announce the arrival of NSD number 4!!!!!

    Quick, shove it in the Cauldron of Doom before some starving NSD gang member grabs it and sticks it in a kebab!

    Right, Swedish Chef, another day at sea tomorrow then on Friday we call in at Goteborg in Sweden, aren't you glad about that! A chance for you to catch up with the relatives whilst the intrepid NSD gang go shopping. So, tomorrow you will be holding Swedish-speaking classes so that we all will know how to go into a Swedish restaurant and say "Pud de chicky in de hurdy gurdy boom boom!" That will be lunch sorted for Friday, then.

    Rumour has it the kitchen crew are feeling a bit better, and have been 24 hours without "symptoms" - we could be another 24 hours closer to getting back to eating real food :T....must go and investigate....

    Oh, and Swedish Chef? Where's Igor? Untangling his skis from his longjohns - please do not explain further.....and please, one more thing...

    Tell Hubert to get rid of that reindeer.

    Why? It's actually quite tasty ;) But normally too pricey to be an everyday purchase in this household :(

    Darn it!!! 76 NSD-ers????? That means a reworking of the Pringles ration calculations........I am sorry, but one Pringle each per day is not enough to keep body and soul together. Cunning plan required.......

    Plan A - starve.
    Plan B - eat Igor's concoctions.
    Plan C - eat Igor.

    Any other suggestions for feeding us until the kitchen crew recover from food poisoning gratefully received. In the meantime it is time to go ashore, get our ski kit on and do some skiing up and down the fjords.

    I think you have Plans B & C the wrong way round. :rotfl:

    Well, NSD for me yesterday and also today as I'm having to stay late at work and heading straight home (my ACTUAL home rather than my 2nd home...BrewDog).

    You would all be most welcome in Aberdeen (except Hubert, the locals haven't forgotten his ill-advised nude marathon going up and down Union Street 26 times). Sun is at a premium...us Aberdonians are famed for our tight purse stings and we frequently forget to top up the Sun meter. Having said that, I'm lead to believe that statistically we are the driest (rain-wise) city in the UK. :eek:

    Never mind the locals, I'm still getting nightmares about it.......

    Yep! In the last few years I've tried loads of exotic meats (including reindeer), and not yet had one I didn't like.

    Declaring today as NSD #5
    Picked up a few grocery items (allowed) and paid postage on the PIF item (which I decided yesterday was allowed)
    Have been notified that the price of a couple of DVDs I'm watching has dropped to below my watch level, but I'm not desperate for them so will check to see if they're still at those prices tomorrow (spend day, in which case I may well order). If not, then I'll just wait for the price to drop again ;)
