I'm back now just so you know


One thing about france though, it's all a bit regional innit


There's only so much Foie Gras and duck based products I can handle, someone should open a Tandoori chain there


Oh and oh yeah, they love a pizza in SW France, fekkin cheese/bread based snacks everywhere

You should try the Arepas in Colombia.


(Yes, that was a shameless way to insert my recent destination. :) )

yeah, I bet you also had that pretentious dish they call... 'omelette'. Just a posh way of serving eggs. FFS.


Please don't say you had it with a glass of wine as well.

Lou hasn't really been to Skeggy, or eaten out of a dustbin


She just likes to be spiteful, yet we get to hear about her getting sh!tfaced and stuffing a kebab in her face on 'the lane'


Or some wondrous trip to a food warehouse on the Old Kent Road


Again

Yeah the realities of city life eh bags? Heaven forbid having to rough it!


Can't even rough it round here now without having a focaccia stuffed in your face for a fiver a pop. Anyway, keep pontificating about roughing it in the south of France. Hope the yacht wasn't too small and the champagne was kept ice cold at all times? 'Knob' syndrome appears to be catching.


Louisa.

France was fairly basic Lou, essentillay a wooden shed with a bedroom just big enough for a smallish double bed. The kitchen compromised of a work top and two ring burner, so not really room for the yacht here i'm afraid


It's on a camp site in a wood by the beach, and the wine is really cheap


So hardly 'knobbing' but as you will


Oh and, SW France isn't the 'south of France'

If you like ham, cheese and bread


Or that marvellous hot mix up version of the above 'pizza' then head to the French Alps


Not a day's gone by when I've not inserted some in one form or another into my face


Snow's pretty ok if you're thinking of an early one

I love the cheese-tastic parts of France like the Savoyard, but I have to draw the line at raclette. FFS - it's melted cheese and boiled potatoes. That's not a meal - it's the last contents of the fridge when you've forgotten to do the shopping.

You'll be happy to know that I got to the autoroute gate at 1-am only to go "Oh fekk" when the auto machine rejected my

Visa cards


And of course I had no cash whatsoever, Alan I thought of you then


Would they let me through, NON


But a man came along about an hour later, drove me to a cash machine 1/2 hour away to draw cash out and then pay ?20 to be on my way


Yes Al, I thought of you smiling at my plight. I'm coming back v soon, ? in pocket this time

This was my lunch today. Except I couldn't open the pickle jar and didn't wash it down with red wine. So apart from that...pretty similar.

I'll be cheese loading my VW transporter on Weds from U supermarket


The place has an altar of the stuff, it's fekkin mind (and heart valve) blowing


I'll happily roll a wheel of the stuff on for anyone who's in need for the festive break


Pm if you're in cheese mode

    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
    • yes I’ve spotted this too — it’s near me and I’m very intrigued to see what it’ll be 👀👀👀👀
