CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Bought them back optomisitic, after selling yesterday. Ta for the coffee.

Oh it's like that is it. Bluelday can have a pickled onion but I get told how many there are.

You're so welcome and good luck again this time :-)

Hello K, I know someone who would eat a jar full, you may be the same, I guess that a lady would not have such a liking :-))
Have an onion and a pint of Guinness K......poured

Could I have a pickled onion sandwich with crisps in it as well please?

Why not Spacie, would you like tomato ketchup as well?

No ketchup thanks, a pint of Guinness would be good though...

I'm going to have two pints and a packet of crisps.
Putting lots of Guinness on the bar :-0)

Thanks opto, that sandwich was yummy.

Have you seen this one yet?

We start with hot news from Paris where friends of French rogue trader Jerome Kerviel last night blamed his $7 billion losses on unbearable levels of stress brought on by a punishing 30 hour week. Kerviel was known to start work as early as nine in the morning and still be at his desk at five or even five-thirty, often with just an hour and a half for lunch. One colleague said:



"He was, how you say, une workaholique. I have a family and a mistress so I would leave the office at around 2pm at the latest, if I wasn't on strike. But Jerome was tied to that desk. One day I came back to the office at 3pm because I had forgotten my stupid little hat, and there he was, fast asleep on the photocopier. At first I assumed he had been having sx with it, but then I remembered he'd been working for almost six hours. As the losses mounted, Kerviel tried to conceal his bad trades by covering them with an intense red wine sauce, later switching to delicate pastry horns. At one point he managed to dispose of dozens of transactions by hiding them inside vol-au-vent cases and staging a fake reception. Last night a spokesman for StGdenied that Kerviel was overworked, insisting he lost the money after betting that the French were about to stop being rude, lazy, arrogant b@stards."

It is all believeable except the bit about the the bet. No-one in France would take on such a bet, the odds would be far too long.

I think I'll get breakfast going, I'm a bit peckish.

Ahhhhh, that's better. Nothing quite like a nice FEB to get the day going right. Mind you, I don't usually start with six fried eggs but today I was hungrier than normal. Toast and marmadale to finish off, methinks.

Thick fog here today, how nice.

Morning all, it's a bit dark in here

Take the sunglasses off Keaydian, (sigh)!

Thanks Socs, that's much better.

Very quiet here today, Keaydian. Looks like its you and me against the world. Shall I make a pot of tea?

Morning all.

Is it dark in Sevenoaks

Morning Spacie.

JM try taking the sunglasses off. I tried it yesterdays with the help of Socs and I highly recommend it.

Morning all - tea's ready!
