Originally posted by Bonoman I miss you too. I'll be around a lot more because I'm at my new job and things are going well, so I've got a little more time to visit. You turn up on the last day of my summer holidays to tell me that?!

Originally posted by Bonoman I'm an old-school HCBF poster who has been away for a while... We missed you buddy

Arfternoon chums. How are we all?

This time tomorrow I'll be somewhere over the Atlantic on my way to Philadelphia

Originally posted by Thumper Bet you eat tomato bap, too. A guy at work was born in Yorkshire. He waxes rhapsodic about chip butty, tomato bap, Oxo, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. He's taught half the staff to say 'Ta' in lieu of 'Thanks.' Great guy. Nope. I've never even heard of tomato bap and have no idea what he's talking about. I'm sure I wouldn't like it though - I hate tomatoes in any form. I also don't like Oxo and don't eat beef. Yorkshire pudding though - food of the Gods!

If you'd bothered to read the link... I don't eat beef anyway (doctor's orders - red meat, wine and caffeine are all banned), but traditionally the chip butty is supposed to be cheap. Adding meat to it would make it expensive.

Originally posted by Thumper You're not originally from Yorkshire, are you? Wakefield born and bred. What gave it away? Dad's a Yorkshireman, Mum's a true Cockney. Originally posted by Zamfir Hi Mel!! Long time no see!! ...you had a chipped butt for lunch? Yeah, HC is banned at work, but eBassist isn't. I only come here in the holidays now that I can't get on at work. Chip butty. Chipped and fried potatoes in bread - mine was a bread roll. Mmmm....

I had a chip butty for lunch

Hello

I am SO BORED!! I'm off timetable today because year 9 have an "enterprise day" and, as I teach two year 9 classes, I've been chosen to supervise one of the groups. I'm not allowed to help with their tasks, I'm just here as the legally required adult. I was going to write my reports, but they're done online and the system is down, so I'm sitting here doing sweet FA. Bored out of my brain!!

Originally posted by niomosy It's the eyes. Something's funky about them. I thought it might be the nose but I covered it up and there's definitely something odd about the eyes. Like, they're not quite aligned or something. It's not the eyes. It's the mouth.

[rant] I hate local councils. Rang mine earlier to ask about the removal van parking outside our new house when we move next week. The street we're moving to is a controlled parking zone, residents with parking permits only, so we needed to know the situation. So, this snooty woman at the council tells me we'll have to suspend the parking in the bay outside the house. I say OK, we go through all the details (my name, address, home and mobile numbers, date of last smear test- j/k, but it felt like it!) and then she announces it will cost £46 and I have to pay NOW by credit card. I'm shocked. A six month resident permit is £42 and she wants £46 for three hours!! Anyways, I call back later after discussing it with various people who agree that seems a touch over the top. I get a different person, a nice bloke this time, who tells me I don't need to suspend the parking, all I need to do is buy a one day tradesman's permit, which costs £5. So he cancelled the suspension for me. How much money must they be making off people who take what they're told at face value and don't question it? Shocking. [/rant]
