I'm sure Blue Peter used to tell us it could be fatal to disturb your tortoise

while it was hibernating. How come it's alright for the hare to booby-trap the bear's winter sleep with an alarm clock?

I worry for the bear.

Had a great kebab in Shepherd's Bush yesterday. Not shawarma, but a proper doner with proper bread and everything. Delicious.

Shepherd's Bush, was it? Golly. Well jell.

We had lunch in a chain place during the summer - The Real Greek, I believe it was called. Anyway, their flatbreads were amazing. I need to find the recipe for The Real Greek's flatbreads. (The rest of it was ****, naturally.)

I am sure at the time I thought I was eating genuine Greek cuisine. I am sure it would have Nicosia turning in his grave though.

thick or doughy. It mopped up lamb grease beautifully. This thing was only a fiver as well. Place called Woody's near Shepherds Bush market.

And yes. Well, Greek food... :-( ...isn't it? All a bit...well...y'know?

[Berni]

never had a good Greek meal.

Yes, you created modern civilisation but you'd been resting on your Laurels for about three and a half thousand years now, costas

Think the Sumerians and Babylonians et al might have an argument there.

I jokingly put it as my religion on my facebook profile and they a) believed me and b) claim to be practicing it.

I mean, we all love a bit of retro but f**ksake

[Berni]

Sadly for you, though, it's in civilisation. :-(

Also, probably the first one on the path to monotheism really

But yes, interesting. And any religion that involves getting tanked up as part of its liturgy is OK by me.
