Performing Tarts

A cherry bakewell, treacle and custard tart performong J.B. Priestly’s “An Inspector Calls”..

This could help you if you are trying to decide on a career path…

If this makes you want to get up and perform consider stage school.

If it makes you hungry consider catering school.

Probably The Ultimate Feeling

In my mind there is a bit of a fight,
Deciding the best of flavours that delight,
After a quick test,
I think that the best,
Is the combination of cheese and marmite.

The Equal Best Feeling In The World

An opportunity that I should always seize,
Is to taste a lovely cheddar cheese,
I think the best yet,
Comes from Somerset,
Its taste always will be able to please.

The Best Feeling In The World

Some pleasures on reflection are slight,
But there is one thing that causes delight,
And that is to lob,
Into my gob,
Some toast spread thickly with marmite.*

The Elephant Leg Contribution to UK Binge Drinking Culture

There once was a doner kebab,
A sort of huge gross greasy meaty slab,
Slices in pitta bread,
It has to be said,
Could make you vom when you get in the cab.

Some Enchanted Evening…




Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
And somehow you know,
You know even then
That somewhere you’ll see her
Again and again.
~
Some enchanted evening
Someone may be laughin’,
You may hear her laughin’
Across a crowded room
And night after night,
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams.
~
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try.
~
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love,
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room,
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own
Or all through your life you
May dream all alone.
~
Once you have found her
Take her out and feed her
Maybe for a kebab
But not of the elephant leg ones
Don’t forget to add
Tomato and lettuce
Please.

First Week of 6 Weeks of Lazy Summer Lessons (12th – 18th)

So I am having that 6 weeks off that those lucky teachers get. Have found I learn less when I am having a lazy time, but still something new every day…

Monday

The sound of the star wars doors opening was actually some paper being slid from an envelope.

Tuesday

it costs £10.40 for an off peak day return from Taunton to Bristol.

Wednesday

S4C sometimes show Glamorgan twenty20 cricket matches.

Thursday

Michael Jackson’s favourite song was “smile” by Charlie Chaplin

Friday

There is no butter in peanut butter. There are peanuts though.

Saturday

Pandas have a digestive tract more suitable for meat eating, and will actually eat meat if offered.

Sunday

Eric Cartman’s middle name is Theodore. Something I had not noticed until today, probably ignored it.

Harry the Grumpy Parrot

Harry is very pleased that the Somerset cricket team have qualified for the twenty20 quarter finals with a home tie, even though it is not really proper cricket.

He is however grumpy about litter, noisy children, checkout queues and general silliness.
