F'nerr f'nerr! [emoji48]

Ahh, I've just treated myself to a medium sized bag of peanuts... [emoji4]

Whoops, sorry! Not my intention to put temptation into your mind. I'm a bad Phil. I'll go stand in the corner and keep schtuum for the rest of the day... :rolleyes::smug:

You can't beat a bit of rumpo... :happy:

Just finished soldering a 'new' humbucker into an Epiphone SG. I think I may have to redo it over the next few days as, I didn't make too good a job of it and burned a hole in my hand with the soldering iron while doing so. Prior to that, I found that Amazon are selling bargain-priced cat food...

It can have a big effect, yes.These days, I can manage cod and tuna steaks, but I'm ever wary about bones, especially with the cod. I'm ok with fish fingers though. In fact, my now wife and I had fish fingers sarnies on our first New Years Eve together, in 2011. :happy:

The Dawn French ones too: "It's not Terry's, it's MINE!" :joyful:

Weirdly, having said she won't eat peppers, on reflection, she will, if they are chopped up into very, very VERY small pieces in a dish. I think when they're like that, her brain & taste buds don't actually register them as peppers...

It was the bones (and skin) in fish that put me off fish generally. I'm from a generation that was pre-cafeteria for school dinners and usually had eight kids at a table, with a teacher per table The food was bought round and the teacher dished it out and also made sure every last bit was...

What, even Terry's Chocolate Orange?

I love 'em, especially those sweet red ones. My wife is a veggie and hates them too, so when she's eating a veg pizza, she always picks off the big slices of pepper and gives them to me. Result! [emoji1]

An Android phone (Alcatel A3, to be exact). My wife has an iPhone 5s, but I wouldn't touch one with a bargepole. Have you heard the old joke?: "The iPhone. Proof you *can* milk sheep!"

Whenever I get something like that in front of me, I will eat it, but at the same time, I can never resist thinking "I wish this was a kebab/pie, chips & mushy peas/vindaloo instead", or something similar... :)

I worked for the NHS for almost 33 years as a Med Physics tech (mostly radiotherapy planning & related stuff and also radiological protection) and I like to think I was as soft as butter too. :)

Diabetic considerations or associations aside, which items of food or drink do you loath and even shudder at the thought of? I actually have very few, but the main one for me is Brussel Sprouts. When I was a nipper, my mum said "eat your Brussels up, you'll love 'em when you're a big boy..."...

It's the only sensible things to do with those nasty things: smash 'em, preferably against a big hard wall. Vile, vile things. :spitoutdummy:

Good morning all, have a terrific day! Mine started off by being prodded awake by my wife asking me to phone in to her workplace for her, cos she's ill. It amused me how my role has reversed from what it was a dozen years ago, when my then wife - god rest her soul - rang in to my work for me...

If you stay clear of the former mining areas, it's pretty good. I say that from a background of being raised in those aforesaid mining areas. [emoji12]

Neither myself or my missus do any ironing, we don't even own an ironing board*. However, at the other end of the scale, I have a gay male contemporary who always used to iron every darned thing: socks, underwear, doilies, etc, included. I haven't seen him for years, but assume he still does...
