    On a Friday morning soon :( Eight days to go on this contract and we always have bacon butties on a Friday morning (other sandwiches are available) Need to find another similar contract very soon otherwise I'll be at home with the "ah seeing as you're here there's this list of jobs to do" wife - eek!

    He took it all too far, but boy could he play guitar!

      Yikes! You had me worried for a moment - I thought you'd died, or worse gone veggie! Phew. A job you can live without, but bacon butties (with a little brown sauce, perhaps) are a staple food group all on their own. They should be provided free on the NHS, damnit!

      Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

        I'm there, right now. Amongst other delightful chores I had to steam clean the carpets yesterday. Oh joy. Still, today I get to play golf. Funny, though, how things have changed over the last few years. It seems to take forever to sort anything out: you get the phone interview (thanks to whomever told me to stand up and smile: worked a treat) then you have to wait to get the face-to-face then the bugger goes on holiday... Still, it does seem busier than it has been for years; just everything takes longer to get done.

                    I would suggerst you come here to Munich and have Weißwurst (http://www.food-from-bavaria.de/de/reg_spez/einzelprodukt.php?an=62[^]) and some Weißbier (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weissbier[^])

                    A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'. I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

                      A bacon and fried egg sandwich. With soft runny Yolk. You bite into it, and the egg drips onto your chest. You hold the sandwich out to the side with one hand as you rub the yolk away with the other. It looks like you are playing an invisible banjo.

                          Agreed, and you will find Weißwurst tastier (with sweet mustard) than Weißer Riese (alaundry detergent)

                              It's a fight to the death then. With knives. Ketchup is for burgers, fish fingers and sausage sandwiches. Brown sauce for bacon butties! We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in Bistros, we shall fight on the streets and plazas, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Butty, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight in the kitchens, we shall fight in the cafes, we shall fight in the burger vans and in the street markets, we shall fight in the resturants; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Brown Sauce Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation from the tomato.
