The Hornet's Nest

thanks for the caramel latte Ak...and big hugs!

 

wow watch the AB`s go!

 

even for a non rugby person, that's quite an impressive score lol

 

right, soup done, chocolate mousse done...on for pear pie

 

Does anyone else find bananas make you cough?! A similar feeling when consuming large quantities of pear drops?

 

i have to admit, bananas don't make me cough, nor do pear drops, though i get where you're coming from with pear drops...but cough drops do make me cough, what's that about?

 

I tell you what makes me cough is finding out that it costs 13 Euros for a bottle of Heineken just round the corner from where my wife works in Paris that was the cheapest drink!!!!

 

good grief! That's madness!

 

The cheapest cocktail was 19 Euro I know it is the expensive part of Paris but it makes you think how can people afford to get drunk, or maybe that is the point, make them stay sober by using high pricing?

 

it's not just the alcohol though, coffee is a crazy price too!

 

H, is it the cooking or the big crowd you're hoping to be tasty? I always hope my visitors will be tasty but since Sophia Loren stopped dropping by they haven't all been quite up to scratch

 

lol...actually i was hoping the big crowd would be tasty, but since i know the guest list, that's a very vain hope, so i'll stick to hoping the cooking is tasty! Sophia Loren..how does she do that!?

 

Afternoon all. Parcels done, now eating lunch. Just a simple cheese roll, but very tasty!!! If only i could try some of your cooking H, judging by the number of times you host it must be good!!

 

maybe i'll bring some to the Notts Forest game for the big Tee shirt handover

 

hehe. we could have a big ceremony with flags and everything!!

What have the lucky ladies and gents got on the menu tonight?

 

lol..that'd be funny!

cold meat platter to start (that's a cop out on my part, but there's a lot of them lol)...chicken soup (nice and traditional), roast chicken, roast potatoes, bean and coconut, and salad..followed by chocolate mousse, pear pie and melon and pineapple salad in mint dressing.

 

Hon are you a vampire?

 

WOW!!! That lot sounds amazing!!! Who needs Delia!! We've got Hornette!!

 

Friday night is Pasta night - preceeded by a few Bloody Mary's, then White Wine and then Red Wine...then some fat tunes on the gramaphone.

Right, I had enough of corporate madeness today, so off to Tesco to stock up of some essential vitals and supplies...

 

Laced with rohypnol, no doubt...
