Just a glimpse of dawns crack, total absence of
atmospheric movement, quite a lot of lack of warm and molecules of skywater at
the castle this Crimbo eve morn.
Went to Tesco yestermorn on the stale bread, gruel
and His Maj’s food run, as it is apparently yet another Crimbo I thought I
would get dahn there early-6.30 of the AM, what a bloody mistake that was, the
place was heaving, had to park the Peugeot miles from the entrance there were
hardly any trolleys left and it was even worse inside.
What is it that prompts “us” to totally lose control
of our minds at this time of the year? There were umpteen pairs of “shoppers”
staggering around with a trolley each piled to the gunnels with stuff that will
not be consumed, screaming snot nosed brats demanding this, that and anything
within reach of their podgy little arms, and the checkouts- all ten out of
thirty were backed up to the dairy section with the flash of credit cards
blinding those in the queues..
Could “we” not be a little more sensible?
The Manopause is still in motion, had two “treatments”
so far, the first was a massive jab in the right buttock which managed to sting
for two weeks and wore orf after a week, the second was half a massive jab in
each arse cheek (because apparently the dose is too high for one jab) four
weeks later which hasn’t even kicked in yet but has managed to raise my blood
sugar levels to stratospheric numerals.
The next treatment is on the 16th
January, really looking forward to that.....
Meanwhile the new Prime Monster Terry leather legs
Maybe has issued her first Crimbo speech, and has urged Britain to "unite and move forward" after the Brexit vote.
Methinks Maybe is holding orf until the EU
Elections are sorted because it “maybe” that many more countries are just
as pissed orf at the EU as we are.
Time will tell......
I know that times are hard in Russia but Moscow's latest food craze appears to have scurried straight from the river bed onto diners' plates. It's a burger made of rodent meat.
A chef at a Russian bistro said the burger is simple, tasty and full of nutrients.
It is made from the meat of a "nutria", or river rat.
Burgers made from its meat look like most hamburgers.
They have become the latest must-have dish in the Russian capital.
The chef said the rodent's meat has nutritional benefits that have recently been discovered.
He insists the river rodent is not actually a rat.
The U.S. Agriculture Department describes the nutria as a two-foot long, invasive rodent.
The nutria burger sells at the Moscow restaurant for the equivalent of about $8.50 in U.S. dollars.
Rather them than me......
An armed
robber walked into the Lotions & Lace store in
San Bernadino with a covered face and what appeared to be a gun, shortly before
closing time on Wednesday.
Store manager Amy said she wasn’t
scared, and was convinced the gun was a fake – and she was having none of it.
CCTV captured the moment the armed
robber was hit with a hail of dildos:
‘But then I saw the gun and it was
like, really? I don’t have time for this.’
What a dick....
A cat in Russia will
be counting her lucky stars after being rescued from a freezing puddle.
The fluffy feline somehow
managed to trap her paws in an icy puddle and panicked when she could not
escape.
Luckily for her, a passing couple
came to her aid – although her frozen fur suggests she had been stuck in the
puddle for quite some time.
The lucky moggy was probably grateful she was rescued in
time and didn’t have to give up one of her precious nine lives.
Why are cats so daft?
And finally:
As its Crimbo here is a festive puzzle.
The answer is in the link.
And today’s thought: Happy thingamy to all and
sundryJ and a much
better 2017....
