:eek: :eek: omg!

Oh no he isn't!

Unfortunately, it appears that there are others. The correct question would have been something like "Would I risk joining the ranks of ignoratocenti by putting butter on my Pancakes?" (it is still a work in progress - I'll get there with it yet).

The answer to that would of course be yes. Don't do it Torn-Ado you still have hope!

Jaysus Wolfie you scared the life out of me there for a second - thought I'd missed it, but then I was thinking, wait a minute Easter ain't until April 4, so it couldn't have been two days ago

Same as Willy. I'm after shouting out in the office 'is it pancake day?' Queue much laughing and mocking my accent. I always tell them the story of my uncle Pancake. He's deceased now but he was born on Pancake Tuesday hence the name.

Yes I'm aware its Thursday. I remembered half we through my loud exclamation.

If there is yet another thing to learn from St. Pancake's life, as transcribed three or so generations later by the monks of Odlum's Abbey, it is that every day is pancake day. You would know you were in Godless Britain with a response from them like that.

Do you know what some of them over here think? That nutella is acceptable. Nutella! I was once fortunate enough to be allowed to see the page of Leabhair Pancóig, where the dark arts prohibited are listed, and you should see the artistry, and dark portent, that those monk poured into the "N" at the top of the page. You'd know before you read the rest of the word that naught but eternal damnation and a sticky roof of the mouth follows that transgression.

I never realised you were over here Bluebeard until the London interview request. Your a stone throw of a pint away so if your venturing to the Midlands anytime I'll find you the shelter of an ale house I know to pour decent pint.

We need to put together a collection of your finest 'tain's'.
