Re offer to bring Mike Wilson some sprouts from Brussels.

 

Sorry. I was served some sprouts but I ate them, so you probably wouldn't want them at this stage.

 

When out eating, I was tempted to have horse, but out of consideration for the vegaterian sitting beside me, I went for something smaller, a bunny rabbit, hoping that she wouldn't notice. I could have inadvertantly ended up with vegatarian, mind you, as I think that I requested La Pain instead of Lapin. Thankfully, the eatery seemed to understand that I didn't have bread in mind.

 

What else do they eat there? Oh yeah... eels.

 

Yesterday I had a good serving of raw minced beef.

Anyway – traffic. It's murder. Seems hilarious to me that at the heart of Eurobeaurocracy is some of the worst driving in the world. Where do you drive? Oh, anywhere. It was not unusual to find traffic going in opposite directions on the same side of the road. Not many white lines. Lots of holes and road deconstruction. No doubt some perceived chaos was due to the mysteries of Prioritie a Droite – and a misappreciation of the supernatural powers of mental telepathy that Belgian drivers have. ?

You are mistaking "minced" with "mincing".

 

Not the same thing at all, especially to cowboys and other butch folk, such as linemen, marines, native americans and so forth.

 

Uncooked meat is not something I would go out of my way for. The rarest thing I have eaten is European Bison. Doesn't taste like chicken.

That's Buffalo.

 

I'm talking about:

I could eat one of those.

Maybe two.

Preferably cooked.

Seems to be the same mistake as folk make when not differentiating between Tenni Guys and Scura Men.

Actually, on reconsideration, it's only a difference in tense

 

Mincing Americans ––––> Minced Americans

 

Same thing, different time

Who needs scriptwriters when there's stuff like that to work with? Wonder if Dubya plays the same game.

Wouldn't know. I'm a bit of a small block, myself.

"Mr Boyd is accused of stealing bras, knickers and stockings"

 

How funny. My passport and driving licence do indeed say Robert Boyd.

I must have been sleep walking.

 

Wouldn't know. I'm a bit of a small block, myself.

And last I heard, it wasn't firing.

 

bras, knickers and stockings

Perhaps he is merely preparing for a trip to Australia ...

You've seen John O'Sullivan's holiday snaps too?
