not a single word from anyone that tuesday was pancake day. I missed it, so yesterday i made pancakes with banana, strawberries,blueberries with toffee sauce and ice-cream- so i`m over it now. love you all again
We can now eat anything anyday, so I like to keep some things for special days, for example turkey at Xmas. However, as I've missed Pancake Day I am owed a pancake or two or three.
Why do that? admittedly I only have roast turkey at xmas but have turkey sandwiches and the like the rest of the year. But I will regularly pick up a crepe in the morning for breakfast, that or a bagel usually.
Damn..! I read this thread too late. I missed Pancake Day too. Usually the old antennae is up for this sort of thing. Didn't miss Burn's Night, for example. But Pancake Day came and went without even a whimper. I shall just have to have a Pancake Un-day instead.
Don't pass through a park, I do walk down by the harbour side though. This could be changing however as I am in the process of completing a job application for a management consultancy firm, banking in 5 years will not be what it is now because of the proletariat (scum) getting all ****ty.
I knew it was Pancake Day but cheated a bit with one of those make it in a bottle by adding milk and shaking it up jobs, got six pancakes out of it and justed added lemon and sultanas, yum yum.
If you do instant pancakes...the best are M and S...come liquid in a bottle...just pour into frying pan. Taste home-made, but they only sell them just before Pancake Day for a couple of days. That's why I am annoyed to miss them.
Well if RBS keep paying out bonuses to investment bankers who's only plus is the keep the losses down to £2B, then the wind of change can't come soon enough. Usually, just keeping a job is the bonus for doing it well. As for rewarding staff for appearing to do something badly... it's as if they were Premier League footballers. And they don't even have the excuse of entertaining us.
They bring a ****load of money into the country, that's why they get the bonuses. Without the banking sector this country would have folded a long time ago. Take away the bonuses the best bankers will just leave. If I get this job, I will have another year in banking before leaving, if not then I will stay with it for 2/3 years whilst actively seeking consultancy work.
translation- will take the job if work gloves are included, if not will keep on cleaning windscreens at the traffic lights outside the general
