National Identity Card

My old man said we should get one we had them during the war.

I explained I have 5 already
Passport 2 off
National insurance number.
Driving license
National Health service number
The Passports are linked to the driving license
The Driving license is linked to the National insurance number.
The National health service number is linked to the address as are all three other documents.

So 1 card to link them all 1 card to rule them all ?

“Her truth” or “His Truth”

The yanks can fuck right off with this bullshit - just because you call it “your truth” doesn’t mean it is “the truth” anymore that adding FACT to the end of a sentence means that it is factually correct.

and because princess Meghan used it, every other fucker is jumping on it

Did he drink it all (the brandy)?

They were empty when he got them but he filled them with cherries and some water which leached the brandy out of the wood and got a good few gallons of cherry brandy out of them. Hic.

Now, I’m a peaceful man. I dislike conflict, and never indulge in fisticuffs. However, on reading this emailed piece of promotional blurb I am seized by the urge to give it’s author a right punch up the bracket.

While in many ways I’ve enjoyed having our teenage children around during lockdown, it also must be admitted that they’ve given us a lot of headaches, in particular on the vexed subject of food.

The boys have developed an irritating habit of walking into the kitchen at noon, opening the fridge, staring at it for a while and then saying, “Why is there nothing to eat?”

We then point out that the fridge contains eggs, houmous, sausages, potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, garlic, onions, three different kinds of cheese, asparagus, and peppers and that in the cupboard there is pasta, rice, lentils, bulgar wheat, sourdough bread from Riverford, chick peas, noodles and a selection of nuts and dried fruits. The fruit bowl contains bananas, oranges, apples and a melon. The freezer moreover offers peas, pitta bread, salmon, berries and mince and anyway since when did they become such horribly spoilt brats ? JUST GET OUT!

The stuff in the fridge doesn’t count as food to them. It’s too complicated. You have to cook it. They tell us that all their friends’ parents’ fridges, which are not only bigger than ours but also always feature an ice-maker, positively groan with delicious snacks wrapped in several layers of brightly-coloured plastic, all of which can be eaten directly from the fridge without the need for cooking or any sort of preparation at all.

OK, so let’s get this straight: they want horrible over-advertised, over-processed pieces of rubbish like Peperami and Babybel. Oh what silly parents we have been, preparing home-cooked food made with organic vegetables and no plastic, and encouraging our offspring to cook!

Do we spoil our children in this country? I always imagine that French teenagers are adept at whipping up a quick soufflé for their tired, stressed out parents on a regular basis, to say thank you to their mothers for suckling them at their breast, feeding and clothing them for years and giving them unconditional love.

A tout à l’heure,

Tom

That fridge is not a fridge because why would it have Potatoes Cabbage Carrots Garlic and onions in it?
The cupboard has a full on load of pretentious food that only Rik from the young ones would eat.
Frozen Salmon why ruin it.

I would have divorced my parents if bulgar wheat and lentils were presented to me as a DIY culinary opportunity

Quite.

As for his fond imaginings regarding French teenagers, words fail me. He’s clearly never met one, they are practically feral.

Really sticky bogeys. Can’t wipe them off, can’t flick them off, think you’ve got rid off it but it’s just trans-warped to another finger/back of your hand/middle of forehead.

Also, people who wipe bogeys on public toilet cubicle walls, there is literally toilet paper 6 inches from where you adhered it to the wall.

Really sharp bogeys, you go to rub your nose and there’s a really sharp, crusty one in there, when pressure applied feels like you’ve just punctured your brain.
