OK, so I've had a look at my portfolio and actually made some money whilst I was away! I think I'll go away again. On the strength of that I'll have a FEB, with extra bacon (and no snails).

Brown sauce on table is a bit on the messy side, isn't it K?

Fluffy eggs coming up, nice and hot too. Not like in my hotel in Lyon, their fluffy eggs were luke warm at best, and that's a 5* hotel too, Just goes to show...........
Good traffic jams in Lyon, 1H20 to go less than a mile (should that be in kilometres)?

Lyon's a permanent traffic nightmare imo, Old Socs. We give it a wide berth.
If we're going to the Alps, we turn left at Macon (it's also about the best place to stop and load up with Chablis) nowadays. Towards Bourg-en-Bresse, then Annecy and Albertville. If we're going to the Med, we go straight down the middle to Clermont-Ferrand. It's a much quieter road.

Morning from a pleasant Norwich no rain but no sun either at the moment.
Socs, I have also found my trading improves greatly when I am not involved in it, having realised this I stopped completely expecting the money to flood into my bank account, but it didnt!
I am not sure what fluffy eggs are but I use scrambled egg as a standard test for the quality of hotels, I like them to be fairly solid and yellowish, i hate the stuff thats white and creamy and also the stuff with a green tinge (what causes that).
Maybe we could get Delia into the Coffee shop to do a scrambled egg masterclass for us.
Socs, by the way did you translate from Kms to Miles? or was it just a guess ;-) sounjds like you should have walked.

Miles taken from the speedo. Walked it later, in a few minutes. The French don't have a clue about traffic management, but the cars can move surprisingly quickly when there is a tram bearing down on them.

Coming along? You've had your share already so I guess you're suffering from memory loss, senior moment? I'll make some more if you are still hungry.

Thanks K but not in the mood for eggs today, mind you that means more for you as that looks like a mega sized portion of scambled eggs! ;>)

Looks like scrambled eggs to me.

Quite right Hilary. The answer either comes to you immediately or you spend hours trying to work it out. I figured it immediately after a RAF colleague had spent all day wracking his brain over it. He went potty when I told him almost as soon as he showed it to me, saying it was an impossible clue. He didn't speak to me for a week after that.
Such is life.

Sorry Keaydian, we don't discuss politics on this thread.
