🎂 Sotonians milestones

A Sotonian’s wife’s milestone. Pat (Mrs S) has her delayed birthday party on Sunday. Because of Covid, the first time all of our grandchildren will ever have been together, and for the youngest ones, first encounter with their cousins!

A suitable cake! :grinning::birthday:

Being with awful internet has left me at the mercy of Polish TV on 1st September.

You should ALL instantly know the importance of this date.

I’ll wait…

Yes, it was the day the Nazis invaded Poland & started WW2.

So Polish TV is full on sombre mode. Except TV Plus who have decided to run the biographical movie Zenek.

More of that in Annoyances later IF the new router works.

Anyway happy WW2 Day

YoungAdult#1 presented her summer research project earlier and her time studying for her MSc is done.

She’s worked hard and me and Mrs C_S are sooo proud of her.

Just had a stonking celebratory Deliveroo’d Thai from The Giggling Squid ( @Bucks :+1:)

(Not implying @Bucks is a Deliveroo driver btw :wink:)

You’ve clearly never met the right squid.

I had a Green Curry and Jasmine rice as a main and have to say it was right up there among the best I’ve had in a long time.

Maybe after a Babycham or two?

I had the Royal Fishing Boat Curry with Coconut rice. Just on the limit of spicy for me.

Don’t remember reading that on the menu, but when YoungAdult#2 mispronounced Phucket Muscles I chuckled :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Tomorrow (7th) will be 25 years since Mrs MoT decided this young man would do. Some have asked what happened to him, to which one could suggest I have eaten him. We have been through a load of scary health stuff from Leukaemia to Breast Cancer but some how managed to come through it without me getting kicked out :crazy_face:

I was 26 with cheesy grin😊

Suits you sir? which side do you ‘hang’ sir? Or am I missing something ‘ampshirian’?

Please congratulate your wife on her singular achievement :smiley:

I believe he was asking whether you were on the left or the right of that photo!!
