The Absolutely Awesome August 'Silly Season' Holiday NSD Challenge!

Nargleblast

snow white - it is the little, wasteful incidental spends that we try to avoid, like buying expensive glossy mags full of adverts when you can read better stuff at your local library, or even online, like these forums! If you work out a weekly or monthly budget, depending on your finances, you can budget for things like work-related expenses, household repairs, presents fund, entertainment fund, whatever, and if you don't break the rules you have set then you have a NSD!

Also had to buy a new frying pan as I destroyed the other one by cutting up the chicken as it cooks as I hate squidgy raw chicken :eek:

I don't blame you! It really is the worst!

So, Inspector, any idea when you will catch the bounder? Oh do have a bit of Mrs Doyle's sultana cake, she'll be most upset if you don't...Igor, stop that! The Inspector does not need any more cream on his wounds!

You think it was the dastardly chap with the initials BS? (Being discreet here because...You didn't know? Well, the odd looking one there, with the dodgy leather shorts, the rucksack full of recipe books and the case of chefs knives, yes the one mooning at his knees....he was left standing at the altar last month because Mr S ran off with the bride...Yes, huge scandal it was....)

Well it makes sense, he was handyman here for a while so would know where we all keep our valuables.

Just a minute, where is Big Trudie, Igor's other sister? What's that, Hubert? A ransom note? Oh calamity! That rotter Scroggins has kidnapped Big Trudie!!

You won't have to worry about that now.We have two excellent chefs here:
Swedish Chef ie Cheffie,calm,handsome and cultured.Also impossible to understand.

And then there's Igor,our sous chef,general dogsbody and maker of the cocktails.He also has a chest wig and cookery book fixation.His latest 'must read' is 'The Naked,Hairy Bikers Big Book of BBQ'.

Mrs Doyle is a gem,constantly supplying us with tea and egg sandwiches,even when we don't want any.

This is excellent - handsome and impossible to understand is just how I like my men! I mean chefs. :rotfl: Where are those cocktails? Hopefully they haven't come too close to the chest wig...

Don't encourage him, belle -once Igor gets into cocktail mood there is no stopping him.....is that one or two anchovies with your Manhattan?

What?That lovely woman?!!!!

Here's a recent picture of her for the 'missing' poster.

Igor also does a wicked pilchard margharita,and his turnip vodka keeps us warm in the winter months and also is an effective anti freeze.

I see we have a connoisseur in our midst Nargle.

Now,where did I put last month's leftover ferret n onion mini quiches,we need some nibbles!

We haven't heard much from Hubert (our eager to please,incontinent,spanx wearing transvestite donkey) this evening....
