    Morning, meant to run first thing, but heart rate is elevated at the moment so rest and longer walk instead.

    WFH then drinking in a pals garden 😎

    Ciao

    Have just sworn at them repeatedly and still nothing.

    Now just going to start throwing bins around.

    I presume we're all on here now then?

    Pedal pedalled.

    Now taking mrs SB out for lunch at a new steak place which opened on Monday. Expectations are for average food but it's 1/2 price so worth it.

    Salmon for supper.

    May do some measuring later as Mrs sb has also requested wooden planters as a gardening leave present.

    In the interests of mellow and fair play, this is the even-up post, even if it is Friday already.

    Thursday involved swearing at former owner (in absentia) for the workmanship of things he did round here. Late afternoon walk was a nice break.

    Got bought a pot of pork dripping by my eccentric father in law. I'm obsessed with it. Proper dripping with a clear jelly. It's amazing. Had it on toast, cooked a leftover meat, onion and diced potato hash with it. Lovely. I expect I shall snuff it shortly.

    I've put myself on a strict vegan diet until the New Year, to hopefully smash off the last excess lbs, so greens only ie brocolli, cabbage, spinach etc.
    I've never considered eating anything with pork dripping, or any other animal product for that matter, but the thought of eating something more exciting than rabbit food is extremely tempting.
    Shifted 7lbs since the weekend mind, so must be doing something right, but it's bl**dy hard work.

    Enjoy your pork dripping HB and I'll pray that it doesn't prematurely kill you :)
  • Charlie_CrokerCharlie_Croker Posts: 1,563
    brocolli, cabbage or especially spinach don’t particularly smell nice, or taste great either, that’s two of our inbuilt senses saying ‘not great’ but get a bit crusty bread and some real beef dripping, wow that really does taste great – why is that?

    enjoy the pork dripping HB, in moderation of course
    7lbs in a week CB, sure that's not water (hydration) loss

    No.
    More likely working every hour going while eating a calorie restricted diet.

    Obviously, now I'm a single bloke w*nking profusely also helps :lol:

    I did make a home made pork pie once. It was bloody lovely. Took ages though.
  • pinnopinno Posts: 48,536
    We used to sell home made Pork Pies at Keynsham stores way back in Naam, Cheltenham.

    Many, many years ago I had a temporary job making pork pies at the Pork Farms factory in Nottingham.
    I think it was after that that I decided to turn vegetarian as the smell of the stuff was nauseating.
    Apart from working on a turkey farm probably the worse job I've ever endured.
    Makes you appreciate doing something you really enjoy so much more.

    MF had a job at the sausage roll factory outside Crewe for a while. It was utterly, totally, completely shyyt.

    Hasn't touched one in 25 years. Vile horrible things.

    Greggs used to do utterly wonderful beef, cheese and jalapeno rolls that rocked. TDKBOMB of food.

    Could eat them all day.

    Sausage rolls? He'd rather beat himself with a steak tenderiser.

    I used to own a "massage parlour" in Crewe, just down the road from the train station.

    One of the owners of another parlour on the same road sent Manchester gangsters round as we were taking all the trade, as we were bringing in better girls from outside of the area as the internet was taking off and recruitment got easier, threatening to put me in a body bag.

    Having had a cleaning company on the Isle of Man that had attracted the attention of Liverpool gangsters who thought I was taking their profits there too, I opted to leave pronto.

    £1 each - you can't go wrong. They even do vegan sausage rolls if you like hugging trees and that sort of thing.

    No, but there is to Crewe, which MF mentioned.
    Seemed like an apt opportunity to mention my dirty, sordid past, that's all.
    I wouldn't want to get to 40,000 posts before these kind of revelations come out, you all might think I'm some kind of weirdo :lol:
