Once at a party we ran out of booze and the last thing we'd finished off was some sloe gin - we thought it would be a great idea to blend the sloes and make a smoothie - suffice to say it was disgusting!

But you are right, God bless Google, what the hell did I do for entertainment before it?? And where on earth do those pesky internuts come from anyway?? Usually best to keep the head down and wait for them to be distracted and wander off back to their burrows. Or to return to their raunchy conversation with the fat, hairy bloke in Newcastle ;-) LOL!

It was an Amontillado brand pale dry sherry that I keep for cooking purposes. They rasins were for the tequila chicken I posted a month or two ago. Feanor, we must remember he got an E in A-Level further maths. But, yes, that is painful, even more so now that I have quizzed him as to what that post was actually about, Apparently all that gibberish was meant to prove that if a<1 then a^2 < a. Yeek! To be honest compared to the blooper my father made (he teaches maths up to GSCE part time) it isn't that bad. Last Sunday Dad said "I read that the probability of a baby having a non white mother is 0.25. So if the probability of a baby having a non white father is 0.25 then the number of children with two non white parents is (0.25)^2." AAAAAAARGH! Forget Monty Hall, we need to start teaching common sense!
