    I feel slightly embarrassed

    Just wandered around Debenhams picking up a couple of Maine T-Shirts, Jeff Bank's shirts and noticed a delightful slim fit jean. Tried it on and was very happy that I can now get into size 34"s although 32"s are still a little too tight.

    Got home and had a look at the recipe and to my horror discovered that I picked up these from Red Herring.

    If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

    You want to be careful with those tight jeans hD, they're likely to give you a yeast infection in your lady parts.

      I'm sitting here wearing the wife's bra and panties, that was all a mistake too, must have looked in the wrong drawer when I was half asleep.

          Recipe for red herrings - in Kenelm Digby’s 1669 Closet, or Excellent Directions for Cookery, which promises to satisfy ‘the curiosities of the Nicest palate’.

          My Lord d’ Aubigny eats Red-herrings thus broiled. After they are opened and prepared for the Gridiron, soak them (both sides) in Oyl and Vinegar beaten together in pretty quantity in a little Dish. Then broil them, till they are hot through, but not dry. Then soak them again in the same Liquor as before, and broil them a second time. You may soak and broil them again a third time; but twice may serve. They will be then very short and crisp and savoury. Lay them upon your Sallet, and you may also put upon it, the Oyl and Vinegar, you soaked the Herrings in.

          Confusion is a natural state of being

            Receipt! Receipt! Receipt! Curse my fangled brain today!

            Thanks Diver, may just cook these in a faint hope of absolving my shame in my shopping faux pas!

                  Why be obtuse about a normal biological function? Why not just ask directly if Arsenal are playing at home?
