    Oooh Yes, I'd love to contribute!
    I am talking to EE tomorrow, so hopefully it won't be much longer before I am back online properly.

    Once I do, I'll put my scribing hat on and come up with some ideas. :)
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?

    :D That's good news! We've had a lot of fun and I think that our Shakespeare versions of LTK and TSWLM are the best we've done yet.
    Next, I believe we might be raking a moon or two... Number 24 and I have been making a few plans!

    Has anyone noticed that our Shakespearian plays have much of the same tone as the "Scripts" on the last page of Total Film magazine?
    Oh ..... one Coke Zero, please -{

    This may sound strange, but if you go on Colin Firth's Wikipedia page, the photo they have of him isn't Colin Firth at all.

    Unless they've changed it since you posted- yes, that's him.

    I didn't realise it was Pancake Day! Will have some later but lemon and sugar for me -{
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,793MI6 Agent
    Pancakes! Do you put syrup on them, or do you use suggar or blueberry jam like civilized people?

    Yesterday was also 'Global Scouse Day' ... The dish from which Scousers get their nickname ... All thanks to our Norwegian friends and their lobscouse :)

    Much prefer a bowl of scouse to pancakes, especially with some crusty bread and a load of butter :v

    Never actually had scouse but I'm having something similar tonight, but with dumplings and jacket potatoes smothered in butter. Cooked all day in the slow cooker I call it " slow Yorkshire"
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    Scouse is very similar to an Irish stew these days but it started off as the sailors throwing all their left over edible food into a stew ...

    Now it's mainly meat and root vegetables ...

    Obviously I'm not going to argue with you about the Norwegian word :)) but we see both spellings used here and I don't know why ... lobscouse being the most used ..

    Anyway,i'll stop going on about it ... I sound obsessed :)) :))
  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,793MI6 Agent
    It's clearly written both lapskaus and lobscouse in the article, but I've never seen the latter spelling before.
    I think we both should obsess about this, quarrel for days and become mortal enemies because of this.

    Scottish equivalent: stovies.

    My late Mother used to make a stew, which was so thick, it was almost solid, but knowing
    My love for spicy food. She'd mix a little curry powder in it :D , it did turn it a slight green
    Colour, but tasted wonderful.
    My Dad, on the "once in a blue moon " times he had to cook, used to make "Bully Beef Stew"
    With Corned Beef as the meat in it. I think it was made during the war, but I too really liked it.

    Hooray! This evening, anyone who wants either a scotch, glass of prosseco, a G&T a Vodka Martini with a dash of vanilla, a Hinekin or a Ginger Raspberry neat, can have one on the house.

    My broadband is up and running. Thunderbird 2 is GO again! Cheers! -{

    Thanks Pussy!

    That was not funny. The world's dependency on the Internet has spiked in the last ten years. What a way to find out!
    Its good to be home.

    Yes, it is amazing how much we depend on it. As I said before on switching suppliers not long
    Ago. I was without it for four days ! :))

    Water, Gas, Electricity, Broadband. The four necessities of modern life. :D

    By the way, How do you know so much about the sexual experience of the " Media man" ? :))
