ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS are my preference, you only *really* need:

a good Chef’s knife,
a good cleaver,
a good pairing knife,
a good boning knife,
a good bread knife,
two good “steel’s” (ceramic & steel)
a good chopping board,
a good peeler,
a microplane grater,
a good set of pliers,
a pestle & mortar,
a set of Peugeot pepper & salt mills,
a robot coupe processor,
a set of good whisks,
a set of metal bowls,
three large measuring jugs,
and a rolling pin.

add a set of pots & pans, a good even & rapidly adjustable temperature oven, a 4-6 ring stove and fryer and you can cook anything.

iDave, you sick sick man.

I put a couple of leek in the exhaust of a rather pleasant DB9 that was parked diagonally across the disabled spaces at sainsburys last summer.

The look of shear horror on the able bodied owners face as their pride and joy struggled and then died, only for the true horror of where they had parked to become apparent was glorious. I got to watch the whole thing play out whilst casually smoking a cigarette on an opposite bench.

I had been looking forward to those leeks for dinner but the absence of a disabled badge and an afternoon off, well the temptation was to great.

the fuxking olympics probably.

so would that warrant the follow outburst:

“bollocks I have to rebuild the whole **** thing again!”, “oh and dick around with the nameservers!”

wish I’d just watched that bloody youtube video, and why the merry hell aren’t they all floating around or at least partially weightless in the tedious snow level?

by the time you get home the shower will have exploded. expect the worst.

yep Sharki, thats the thing.

how is “the moment” not singular? I DEMAND AN EXPLANATION!

I’ve no idea Simon, care to give us the abridged synopsis?

roper – Member

to live “in the moment”, to not be thinking “what about that thing” or “that thing” and rather experience a kind of existentialist singularity.

Living in the moment is not singular. The only thing that can be is your perception of it.[/quote]

correct,

well you’d have difficulty perceiving said “existentialist singularity” if you weren’t on the inside looking out surely?

a Simon Amstell? he was a presenter on Nevermind the Buzzcocks, hang on, was he dropped from presenter duties due to his penchant for buzzing cock? 😀

I might also point out that aforementioned DVD does come in a sleeve that could potentially herald the return of album art for bands. that is all.

Actually this thread wasn’t brought to you by some drug induced state,

rather I watched Simon Anstell’s DVD and he goes on about this being “in the moment” thing a fair bit…

A Bank Machine Ltd spokeswoman said: “We are not going to pursue people. It is up to their conscience whether they return the money or not.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaha

any, just make sure you have a pool ball in a sock with you at any time.

You are aware that seemingly normal people can suddenly turn and attack people out of character as well, right? In that case you better not work in any situation where you might be in stabbing distance of another person.

exactly! add Dogs which cause cancer and you’ve just supersized the threat level up seven additional terror points what with your Obese psycho knife wielding cancer hound allergen rampage multiplier!

why not take the internal workings from the mitsubishi and use the body of it as a smoking shelter in your garden?

I had a moorhen that would continually study Nietzsche, miserable bastxrd. Needless to say it was also unwelcome within a productive office environment, still at least he didn’t give people cancer.

complete change in behaviour over the course of an evening, initiated by a random attack on a long-term family friend who had known and also loved the dog for many years. vets said possible tumor or something and with the new behaviour we were advised to have her put down.

the exact same thing happened to my Cousin, she was pinned down by a family’s lab which then tore her face apart. 100% out of character for the dog. The Vet said that it wasn’t uncommon for this to happen with dogs, esp labs.

still I’m not opposed to dogs, as long as they are kept outside and are treated AS DOGS, what possible benefit to the office working day could having dog inside afford?

oh and they can cause cancer remember.

oh yeah, dogs are safe and friendly

DOGS CAN CAUSE BREAST CANCER

and its from the Daily Mail so it MUST be true, on that basis I think we should tell the smokers to stop huddling up to each other for warmth and tell em to come back in and spark up, just don’t use the mutt as an ashtray?

Ode to underwear fastenings…

pants? I wear shorts,
which have a solitary button,
which is never ever fastened,
just in case…

Now trousers, well yes, Button fly, of course,
often opened, fastened, opened and forgotten
no problems and no fear of the zipper catch cut
just buttons, they’re safe…

Would you prefer hair entangled & matted velcro,
ripping and tearing at your crotch,
painful pubic hair pulling?
no thanks, not a lot…

Press studs are only friends of the impromptu exposer,
hook and eye, well that just too bizzare,
lace, toggle or ripcord?
just stick with buttons, you’ll go far…

taking dogs to work is as bad as sharing a desk with a colleague who smokes, that said, they do have to go and stand in their outdoor kennel should they wish to pet their carcinogen.

did you know that phrase comes from the fact that you can gain a reasonable idea of a horses age by looking at how much of their teeth are showing, you’ll probably also be familiar with the phrase “long in the tooth” and again that’s of a similar origin. So in essence, don’t look a gift horse in the mouth as you may find something a little disappointing if you peer too deep.

so there we go, there end the lesson.

dog’s have no place within an office, or inside the home for that matter. KENNEL heard that word? have one outside your place of work, leave the dog in there, stop trying to humanize your pet.

Still Woods was the biggest loss to bristol riding, that place was special 🙁

The timberland trail? its a bit dull, I can only imagine that the addition of hard packed sanitized trails will be erm, good for emptying the dog along?

will keep an eye out around Swindon/Marlborough neck of the woods, my mates Patriot was swiped from a “secure” bike lock up and its vanished, its fxcking infuriating, best of luck, oh and a dog basket? on a carbon nomad? love it!

any ideas on what the Bank of England’s punitive charges are? And how they are to be repaid?

I mean there’s all this talk of how unjust it all is, newscasters voicing “public concern” etc but very little of the actual punitive costs and when/how that is to be repaid?

ok, what if it was say a means start rate at 60k that doesn’t seem too unfair, plus the sooner they pay it back the sooner they can escape further charges & interest

ah!

yes http://www.oldghosts.co.uk appears to be redirecting to http://www.oldghosts.co.uk.php5-16.dfw1-1.websitetestlink.com

yet my laughing squid account says that: http://www.oldghosts.co.uk is clearly not, when I try to put in: http://www.oldghosts.co.uk/web/content/ to the UK2 domain redirect it fails as it won’t let me redirect to a sub directory on my own domain (kind a obvious I guess)

If I remove the entry for the diversion http://www.oldghosts.co.uk takes you to a UK2 parking space, so am I right in thinking I need to transfer the name servers to get this fixed?

WCA, Have you considered one of those apple things?

why does the UK Gov not implement Unplanned Borrowing & Quantitive Easing Charges against the financial institutions concerned that are taken directly for the salaries of those working within or proven responsible for said needs. To be deducted on and at a means tested (+20k) rate?

And then offer the same channel of support to the man / small business on the street?

hmm, I’m indeed confused, is there anyway that I can see where I have configured http://www.oldghosts.co.uk to direct to? the UK2’s site back end seems to be broken, it only displays in unformatted text and as such seems to be missing a fair amount of content! (such as the domain redirect page!!)

you wanna think yourself lucky you don’t smoke too!

a pox on their houses.

don’t you have any old carpet?

I have banana.

Deleted…by you.

I am indeed a fit ninja and I so could hurl your keys through a tree trunk, and I would, just for a laugh.

First They came for the Anti Semites.

First they came for the Anti Semites.
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Anti Semite.

Then they came for the Racists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Racist,

Then they came for the Perverts.
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Pervert.

Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
