  • 21:54 @ParrotKnight Are you saying you have a problem with bagpipe music? ;) #
  • 22:10 Not to mention up to skip=100 on the flist! #
  • 22:17 skip=60 even with the communities ifltered out (lots of people had a slow day at work? ;) ) #
  • 22:43 So the Overly Spontaneous Burns Night is happening, but I am still not clear how many people are actually coming. Sounds perfect... #
  • 23:23 @ParrotKnight I suspected it was the rugby songs, really... though I admit that piping is best enjoyed at a distance. (A German friend of #
  • 23:24 ...mine claims to think it would be romantic to have a piper in church at a wedding. Only if it's either a cathedral or has no roof, I feel! #

  • 23:32 And bring her bf (who I don't like, but that's by the way). I'd invited a two more people to make up numbers,& it begins to get unmanagable #
  • 23:33 Oh well, the more the merrier. Of course, we don't have enough chairs, but we'll cope some how. (Note to self: buy more haggis). #

  • 00:26 ... Take it back, it's under the special 'imagined worlds' rubric, with Narnia. I think the layout is ill adapted to a website... #

  • 10:34 @angevin2 Texture? Of course, some things just taste better cold... #
  • 14:43 Change of plan: not cranachan proper, but raspberries with toasted oatmeal and honey and whisky sauce (don't wish to give guests heartburn!) #
  • 14:44 ... er, and yoghurt. Would be a bit dry otherwise! #

  • 16:33 *is rather surprised to be told she's a far-left moderate libertarian* #
  • 16:45 Ack, I'm about to be late for Evening Prayer... #
  • 17:42 *g* Headline on front page of Church times, illustrated by man with camel: "Aunt Dot would be envious" #
