Take it easy, James Martin, formerly of Saturday Kitchen…

Do you know any of these?

Might be of @Mistersteve’s interest too.

watched that series on someone’s recommendation from here, might have been you?

Work Xmas meal wasn’t it. Bit shit really. Home now, got some tea. Mr Plastic is doing some painting so I’m literally twiddling my thumbs waiting for bed which again is a bit shit really innit.

So his elbow has healed enough for painting!?

By the way, what’s the status on that leaky situation?

keith · 2017-12-06T21:24:35.708Z

I think they might be more productive than some of my Mechanical Engineers…

I’ve also had three emails since 4.30 from students in my Thursday classes (all Access To HE) with pathetic reasons they can’t come to class tomorrow.

keith · 2017-12-06T21:24:56.926Z

It’s a series?

Not me.

@meowington is mincemeat generally vegan? I know you can buy readymade pastry that is. Thinking in for a penny, in for a pound and making some with class next week…but got a few egg and lactose issues…

Thanks!!

like a documentary about 80s/90s japanese videogame composers

meowington · 2017-12-06T21:27:52.210Z

Mince meat is fine as far as I know! And yeah the just rol stuff is all vegan

I use this recipe (minus the egg and butter) and it’s soooo nice and everyone loves them. Crispy pastry and normal pasty

meowington · 2017-12-06T21:28:48.635Z

Oh yeah and the recipe is easy/fun cause you’re just rolling out a big sheet of pastry and they can just chuck any old shit in and make a mess

Found it odd in PGCE the amount of daft reasons some.kf the young ones had for not turning up…there would be all thr keen mature students where we’ve been up, put the washing in, tidied up, made lunches, kids up, off to school etc and you’re saying you’re not in as you’re tired from doing one assessment. JFC etc

plasticniki · 2017-12-06T21:30:45.090Z

Hah! Yeah apparently it has. No idea though, no amount of me telling him to rest it helps.

Leak update:

Tuesday Evening Thread Social

Feel slightly better. About to have a cup of tea and a mince pie. Just had our plasterer round who said the leak from last week was just condensation Dunno what to do with the rest of my evening. Either: plan bike rides for over Christmas, or read.

Your life is an adventure!

plasticniki · 2017-12-06T21:33:50.222Z

Tell me about it!!!

sips tea

keith · 2017-12-06T21:52:58.531Z

These are all mature students, although the excuses have come from the younger ones in the cohort.

One of them emailed to say he was modelling for his girlfriend’s online business at 2.30 and might only be able to attend for an hour.

Evening all. I’m enjoying a pint in Liverpool after the game tonight, so not even the amorous drunks - she’s squeaking and thrown up a bit on her shoes, he’s talking like an itty-bitty baby - can dent my Wednesday.
