Was that an intentional double 'L', Oron? Whether it was or not it really made my day. Merry Christmas from Lancashire.
I hope your doughnuts didn't come from a recipe by Mrs Craddock Maggi, because you know what they turned out like!
Anthony,
I can picture you glued to the screen watching the progress of Santa ever westwards until he reached bonny Scotland. Get to bed early and be good!

Vesele Vianoce a stastny novy rokAH! A charming Slovak Greeting... thank goodness for that, I thought you'd had some early Christmas pud, found a sixpence and busted a tooth and couldn't speak....... :P :-X :-\ ;D
We should have carp with the Slovak potato salad to be properly traditional, but I draw the line at eating fish that tastes of mud
I thought they bred them in the pondsYes, that's right , but then I thought they had special tanks to cleanse the fish.... like feeding your edible snails on best lettuce for a few days to clean out their digestive tract.......oh crikey, what a conversation to start a day !??!!

the first foot should be male, dark ... and should bring symbolic coal, shortbread, salt, black bun and whisky.

Out of interest do you know the name for February 29th :)
As good as the fire work displays are I hate them because of the damage they must do to wildlife. All those birds that must die of fright in the trees below Edinburgh Castle and in cities around the world. The huge starling roost, 100s of 1000s, in Belfast under Queen's Bridge abandoned it after NYE 1999/2000. They have never returned.I would think the fair folk of Belfast would regard that as a result Mark? The noise and mess when they used to roost in the trees in George Square in Glasgow was horrendous, but no more.

When do you sleep? :)
I'm not sure whether I am an insomniac or one of the undead.... I don't sleep as much as I'd like to, that's for sure!
