Ahhh Patsycat, you always worry about the small things in life, green what?

ps: Ive always worried about the Red, Yellow & black gangs here in LOS. Never heard of any Green ones yet.

The Wally Lewis . One stroke, two strokes, change hands, one stroke, two strokes.

Ozzie, this thread isnt about you.

The best cure for gangreen is the Ice lander treat of a baby seal stuffed full of little sparrows and buried in the frozen wastes for a year or two before being dug up and devoured.

I think you got me. I don't have a photo of one of those.

I've got some good LIVE seal photos, though.

You see !!!!

This is why they are Mods...........................Simply brilliant.

I'm not joking.

Recipe for one super-delicious traditional Christmas meal from Greenland: take one beheaded seal carcass and stuff it with a dead, de-feathered seagull. Bury it under the permafrost and allow the flavors of fermenting bird to mingle with those of the seal’s intestines for seven months. Dig it up, bite off the bird’s head, suck out all those pungent juices and have a very happy holiday.

Has anyone tried eating that famous Scottish recipe... tripe? Sounds like something similar.

I think you mean Haggis.

Tripe is cooked in a number of ways, and like all offal is part of many ethnic peasant cuisines.

When offered it I comment that it's like anal sex, I must have tried it in a previous incarnation and didn't like it so there's no need to bother with it in this one.

Tripe and onions - aaahhhh!

Haggis is a bit different - rather than just cooking strips of intestine, all other odds and ends not normally served up intact are minced and stuffed into the intestine. Very nice on a cold winters day. Especially with a wee dram or several to accompany the repast.

What's this got to do with bent fingers?

I haven't used that term for years, it was quite common in the 60s then seemed to lose popularity.

Shaking hands with the wife's best friend was another you rarely hear now.

Mate,considering the longevity rates of most marriages i think the saying has changed to "shaking hands with the unemployed"

BUT, Considering poor old ND's condition:

We should ask what hand the affliction is on??..seeing how you have posted occcasionally of your daily use of the "wally lewis" handshake on little ND:whistling:

Look on the bright side.. maybe a good time for dishing out long service leave to missus Palmer...after all the years of hard labour and years of abuse, overworking of the wrists,ect,

Im sure this sort of hands off approach will be gladly appreciated and then said hand will serve you better in the future..

And If not, you could always do as i do and change hands

A change of hand every now and then is great. You can't get the rythm right so it seems like it's someone else.

I have a trapped Ulna nerve in my left arm. Whole hand can go to sleep at any time. Fantastic.............................

Well some say there is a lot a lot of tripe on this forum. And a lot of guts in haggis. It takes guts to go to a doctor but not much

There's a Chinese restaurant near me that is so authentic, it doesn't have a menu in English, just pictures. I asked what one dish was and I was told "beef belly". Thinking it may be something like pork belly (yum), I ordered it. Turns out it was beef tripe. Once over the mental aspect, I quite enjoyed it. I also ordered tarotaro there once....beef omasum. Again, getting over the mental thing, it was ok.

In Nong Bua Lum Phu, I had chicken intestines (very different from chicken stomach which I will cook on occassion). Nice taste, but I was not sure if the "stuffing" was stuffing or actual intestinal contents....quite grainy....I guess actual intestinal contents would have been not so grainy.

Mullet and giant trevally provide good stomachs for eating.

You're on to it....I find sitting on your hand for a few minutes makes it numb enough to seem like someone else's too.

There's always a silver lining to most orthopaedic injuries

hope the finger is better now.

^The finger is getting stronger and the pain is less.

On the weekend I went to sit at my desk & I had accidently knocked the recline function on the side of the chair, so when ive sad down my weights gone backwards against the backrest and then the chairs shot back into the recline position (giving me the sensation that the chair is tipping over backwards), ANYWAY, with the shock of it all Ive extended my finger into the full open position (opposite to clenched) & this caused me pain again. Mee and my fekking toys, who buys a tilting blooddddy chair.

Chortle!!!

Very biatchy pc. very very unkind.

An airbag sounds needed for the next desk and chir with you driving.

^Mate that chair has increased my heart rate on more than one occassion. The tilte release comes out every now and then and gets me everytime.

My general computer chair is my power wheelchair. It has nearly cut me in half with the desk lots of times if I forget to swith it off. about 400 watts fowering into the wall...Great accelleration when you do not expect it.
