to wonder why my posts are nearly always ignored on MN?

[brizzledrizzle]

Am I as invisible here as in real life?

Those cords could have been the cause of some discomfort in the summer of ‘76, @Purple. A condition that cannot be named here for copyright reasons.

No! No chicken in a basket, at a berni inn you have to have steak, pepper sauce (did they even do that?) and then BFG. Prawn cocktail to start is optional, I think I always had tomato soup.

I thought I was so posh having the coffee afterwards.

we won't mention the time I tilted my chair once too often and the diner behind ended up with his face in his dinner

orange juice for starters, we know how to live.

Oh - I quite fancied a prawn cocktail

I'd totally forgotten that a wineglass (svelte) of orange juice comprised a "first course'. Go on - I'll have the orange juice! Have to leave room for that after-dinner mint imperial , after all . . .

All welcome for babycham & prawn cocktail/ chicken in a basket & Black Forest gateau at the berni inn, we need to decide a dress code.

May I suggest that to get there, we "travel inter-city like the men do / inter-city, sitting pretty all the way / we'll travel inter-city like the men do / and we'll have a jolly holiday/ so up with women's rights / we're off to see the sights / and be lighter, brighter women for our men / away from it all and home again"

We can have a carton of Um-bongo (um-bongo, um-bongo, they drink it in the Congo) on the way down.

I feel a bottle of Mateus Rosé may be called for. And then we can use the empty one to cover with the drippings of a squillion candles.

Could I also raise my glass of babycham to brizzledrizzle to thank her for this finest of threads.

And as evidence of my sincerity, I hereby give everyone on this threat legal permission to use the word "chichi" and all it's forms FREE OF CHARGE . . . IN PERPETUITY!!!!!!

Oh catfleas . . . those candles . . .

I now have an overwhelming urge to heat up a Vesta curry. I might have it with the light one, the bright one - Martini . . .

hear hear! For she's a jolly good fellooooow....
...and so say all of us (hic)

*chichy, not chichi

Even the autocorrect fears the wrath of my legal team.

Any time, any place, anywhere...

I started an AMA and nobody asked me a single thing! so I must be really boring and invisible!

Invisibrizzle no longer!

I think you've had enough catfleas

Perhaps a little nap, and in the morning, a nice egg (with a little lion o it). How do you like your eggs - fired or boiled? And before you say anything, I'm not fannying about doing them en cocotte .

*fried, not fired - perhaps I've had enough

Time to go home / time to go home / Andy is waving goodbye, goodbye, goodbye....

    hic!!!!!

. Oh! Bugger! Neffer mind!

Where's ya mama gone?
Little baby Don?
Ooh we, chitchy, chitchy, cherp, cheep! Hic! Hic!

Hope none of you have babycham hangovers, I think the reason I can’t eat curry’s, is the trauma of a Vesta curry with sultanas 🤢
Have dgd today, weather predictions is 30deg so am going to see if I can whip up nice knitted cossie, for her to wear in the paddling pool just like Nana used them wear.

Also have ear worm now, of Dean Martin singing how do you your eggs😂

Ow my head....What the fuck happened here?...

Hmm raucous singing & dancing & lost slippers, were mentioned along with martini, I think a nice pot of tea kept warm with a tea cosy is needed.

Ooh lovely melen. PG Tips?

Thanks you lot. Ended up locked in the toilet and missed the night. Only a bottle of coty l'aimant and a copy of Jackie for company.

schaden have you dropped the 't'?! chitchy I believe is the word, the word that you heard. I mean, it's got groove it's got meaning...

Ah Vesta Meals (they deserve capitalisation). I used to love the Chow Mein with Crispy Noodles. It was my introduction to forrin food. Just the thought of those curly wurly noodles has me slavering. (Blooming difficult to get them just right - they either burnt or were as and hard as iron)

kitten - great user name. What was your AMA about?

"Little Baby Don"...now why would that be a good line to have in a song? Who is Don? why is a baby called Don? Just WHY?? (And don't tell me it is because it rhymed. So does John, which has wider appeal.

Lol @Kirta but did you slobber over the David Cassidy poster whilst you were drenching yourself in Coty L’aimant? Happy days stalking the newsagent waiting for the latest Jackie.
@Kitten hello, can we ask you questions please
