they appeared, as it were, while I was posting. Must be the live thread effect.
I know. I inserted them, so to speak, latterly. I thought the post needed some balls in it. I'm a perfectionist like that.
-
The balls were an afterthought were they?
stares

Hardly worth inventing a new word for is it? Especially when there's another that sounds so similar.... What was your Phd in again? (insert smiley face as appropriate)
Oh balls
Damn you, wigwam, damn you to hell.

+0.5 I think you have a bit of a point. What would you call it then? My 'assembly'?
"Check out my bitchin' concanetation"

I'm only metaphorically knitting. I actually have a team of crack knitters on hand at all hours to meet my knitting needs.

tl;dr
in 10 words or less please.
I really have no idea what you're trying to communicate here.
goes back to knitting

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnegans_Wake#Anna_Livia_Plurabelle_.28ALP.29
Patrick McCarthy describes HCE's wife ALP as "the river-woman whose presence is implied in the "riverrun" with which Finnegans Wake opens and whose monologue closes the book. For over six hundred pages, however, Joyce presents Anna Livia to us almost exclusively through other characters, much as in Ulysses we hear what Molly Bloom has to say about herself only in the last chapter."[143] The most extensive discussion of ALP comes in chapter I.8, in which hundreds of names of rivers are woven into the tale of ALP's life. Similarly hundreds of city names are woven into "Haveth Childers Everywhere", the corresponding passage at the end of III.3 which focuses on HCE. As a result it is generally contended that HCE personifies the Viking-founded city of Dublin, and his wife ALP personifies the river Liffey, on whose banks the city was built.
That's the sausage.

Anna Livia Plurabelle, from Joyce's Finnegans Wake.

You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way…
And this. One of my favourite songs of all time.

I made cashew nut cookies the other day, which were quite magnificent, if you like that sort of thing. They were from a Nigel Slater recipe, and as such were impossible to eat more than a mouthful of without feeling faintly nauseous. If you like eating food with a thousand calories per gram, though, they were very nice, and are googleable. I swapped the butter for vegan margarine so presumably in their unadulterated form they are even richer.
Plain digestives are self-evidently king, btw.

I knew a girl who swore blind that her cat was an eighth generation part Bengal tiger.
Now, I might be wrong, but doesn't this mean that, somewhere back in the mists of time, a tiger fucked a tabby?

Aberdeen. I love Glasgow and would move, but my GF is from an hour south of Glasgow and doesn't wanna go back!
She prefers Aberdeen? Weirdo.
Just kidding.
Sort of :D -
That apparently there are more Irish cyclists in London =P
:D
-
That I just got a job which I thought I had no hope of getting. And that it means I can move back to London, where most of my friends are.
Slainte!
-
Yup. The scourge of the internet.

But, but...is chalk vegan? :(

I'm English living in Scotland. There are a few arseholes for sure, but to be honest it's easier being English in Scotland than it is being English in England at times.....
Me too, and was just about to say the same thing. It gets well overstated – I've been up here for ages, often in fairly rough bits, and never had a second's bother. Are you in Glasgow? You should come out for a ride with us.
-
Always sounds so fucking great, that.
-
Oh, i don't think anyone's done this one yet. It's smashing.
-
I've read Underworld and I think it's extremely overrated.
Hope this helps!
-
any of the above. loVELOndon is the fave tho
I think that's pretty bad to be honest. Just sounds like any old marketing guff when said out loud. There's no way of pronouncing it to emphasise the bike bit.
Same with VEryLOndon. That's torturous.

English? Supporting Celtic?? :-$
Long story… :)
