1. Assiette de Charcuterie, chez Le Chaudron.
The last night before a guest leaves for home, and the following day Martin will be off too.  Celebratory meal with the celebrity chef!

  3. Film: V for Vendetta

    Quoting a friend, Rain:

    that film — with its dubious quasi fascistic weirdly sexist ideology — has a great deal to answer for

    Verily.

  6. Film: Bienvenue Chez les Ch’tis

    Bought it; saw it again.

    My language skills were better this time around and I could understand some of the jokes in the original French. Maybe the intervening eight months of watching lots of foreign films got some neurons firing again?

  11. Right! I went down to Start yesterday, bought 150 blank CD… dragged it to the bus-stop to go to Manchester… got off the bus… dragged it half-way across Manchester to get to another bus-stop to go home… got off the bus… dragged it home, all the way from the bus-stop…
    You must be thinking, “How difficult can it be? It’s only a measly 150 CD”… but when you realise that each CD comes in one of those plastic case thingies and that a box of 10 has a substantial volume…
    Meep! And I haven’t even figured how to get it to you yet… Do I send it as a parcel (ie CDs with their cases - and it has a substantial weight) or do I send it in a jiffy-bag (CDs without their cases…)

    So guys, what's this 'cooking' malarkey?
    S:
    bwahahahahaha...
    S:
    Not going to tell ya! Muahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!
    S:
    Actually, it's dead easy - it just involves mixing some bleach and rat poison and putting in the oven at gasmark 3 for an hour... serve with a lettuce garnish.... it's really that easy... I dunno why people make such a fuss.... >;-)
