    I know this will be a massive disappointment Gilliatt but the thought of more warm wild turkey has caused a certain amount of green gills in my shackhold, so we will have to decline your kind offer forever. Mick where's the roast beef and Yorkshire pudding ?

    Good job too.

    Boycott is a scumbag of the lowest kind. Anyone who sees fit to give his wife a bash should be put down, in my opinion.

    The last time any of you Reivers came looking for beef was during the reign of Good Queen Bess, but we have long memories round here !

    That is a blatant falsehood, as your ancestor Baron Prendrelemick of the Dales well knew. We were only recovering our prized Aberdeen Angus cattle which he had half inched. Besides, the Virgin Queen, a misnomer if ever there was one, was quite partial to our Reivers. After a long private meeting with the Bold Buccleugh, she emerged from his tent with her face all flushed and stated " With ten thousand such men James V1 could shake any throne in Europe. "

    Funnily enough - considering our bun thread - they are large loaves of bread.

    We are definitely freezing our bloomers, baps and buns down here. I haven't opened the windows or turned on the a/c for 2 weeks. It's okay though, Jocky, I'm asking Atheist and his family to fly in to work the grill and Gilliatt to come also, before his breakfast eats him.

    Thank you, Atheist, I wonder if the birth rate went down when ladies wore bloomers; they're not at all fetching. I thought a bloomer was some bread with alot of yeast...

    So, do you think your family can come up to feed the guests; The last time I made Yorkshire pudding, it was all flat and greasy.

    No problem.

    Kill the steer, cut off a bolar and I'll be there with my Bisto and Yorkie pud mix.

    Split crotch bloomers, hum, I assume it was a matter of practicality...

    Gilliatt will bring the steer (wearing a polka dot dress and bloomers) on the plane with him; the airline was going to charge extra for her size, but we stuck her in a wheelchair and protested that her size was due to hormone therapy

    I hope Paulclem will come, maybe he'll bring some good English breads.

    I have to confess that the best bread I've had are the rolls you get in Austria. Superb!

    And now Ladies and Gentlemen, for the sake of the uneducated, I ask that you all sit down, finish what is left in your glass and kindly direct your attention to the silver screen. Lights please.

    Sounds like you got quite a chill down there. I will bring the frozen orange juice to serve with that breakfast.

    no quotes or capitals here. OMG! Intenational translator here. When the bloomers come off, birth rate has a chance of arising. I only want pliable buns, though even frozen ones stand the possiblity of being warmed by large cold hands. Benefits of friction was probably documented by Newton. Wild Turkey is nectar of Kentuckian fathers. If it turns gills green, not even a pickle/peanut butter sandwich could help. Heart to Haiti.
    I prefer my hot bread pudding served with thick cream as the conveyor.

    sometimes loaned computer works, sometime not. Son did good first semester of law school.

    Leaving 1,150 acres of corn in the field, a brother-in-law left to harvest some hogs in Texas, and stopped off in Colorado to drop off a few pounds of pork. It's not unbelievable, but I won't broach the subject with the man (talked to my sister-that's enough-not even she is foolish enough to broach the subject). Supposed to hit 50F here today, then the pineapple express begins (el nino?).
