You have to admire the sense of humour in a German Putin pissoir.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social zabaglione in Belgium is called Sabayon and often uses champagne instead of Marsala. A chef in Antwerp offered to make it for us even though it was off menu but only if we let him use Kriek ( sour cherry beer) instead. A taste revelation and heartily recommended.

Not sure the calm, sanity and downright pleasantness in here is going to sit well with your demeanour Nish πŸ˜‰

Fantastic levels of rage on display in Tunbridge Wells last night though Nish, especially given the length of the show, even funnier than the last time you came to town which was a high bar.

I can assure you that on my Erasmus year in Grenoble we played French the whole time to avoid running into holidaying Brits, especially on the ski slopes where the hooray Henry's would career into the start of queues urging the froggies to get out of their way. Overprivileged pricks and shit skiers.

Nowt wrong with geotechnical engineers on social media, I must pull you up on the amount of boring on geotechnical engineering courses. Barely saw a rig on my degree course but 30 years on and they're still getting bigger and better.

It doesn't get much better after the Liz truss reference. The whole paragraph reads like a student who has not revised that chapter throwing out a word salad in the hope they get a few marks.

Wasn't looking to have my head in the clouds but couldn't carry on banging it against a brick wall any more. Hoping to catch up with old friends in the new place and develop a fresh SM feed free of that odd musky smell.
