Someone explained to me that telegrams came on wires, but with my own eyes I saw a man on horseback bring a telegram from Bobrinetz...

It really is an amazing vid - makes me proud to have someone like Madders at the club. Taking up a bit of the role model remit from Sonny, and in a similar way an example to young lads in particular that showing your emotions and caring about people are good things to do. Really top fella all round…

Oops, alt text: little carafe of amber coloured drink, with small glass showing cloves. Gooey pile of mixed sesame and honey in foreground. Tablecloth messy cos there was a plate with a big fish, potatoes and my greasy fingers on there earlier lol…

Made of raki with honey and spices, served hot… 😍

Sesame sweet thing not nec included…

Depends where you are, but get yourself a nice rakomelo if you can…

Same with beans

Might get blocked but it’s a price I’m willing to pay for a proper brekkie 😋

Yeah a fried slice is a slice of white bread, fried in oil with a pinch of salt. Cut diagonal and on the plate. Toast is separate, and buttered…

You’re just contaminating a beautiful fry up if you put beans on it - no idea where this disgusting habit originates…
tashldn.bsky.social
Also, beans are Wrong.

Fried egg (runny yolk important) bacon (soft, not frazzled), Cumberland sausage, black pudding, fried tomato (must not be tinned), fried mushroom slices, fried slice (yeah, diagonal lol), toast and butter, lots of tea (no milk thanks). If in Ireland, soda bread and potato bread. NO BEANS

Fried bread is really not like buttery toast though…

Ah good stuff. Get well soon to the patient…

Hope things are ok post-emergency…
tashldn.bsky.social
Tbh I have a feeling it might be better if I was a bit less good in emergencies and better at normal life!

I think what confused me was the idea of the sound of the pan. I can hear the contents of the pan - sizzling, simmering, full on boil or whatever. But the idea of mystically listening to the pan itself threw me a bit lol…
tashldn.bsky.social
You mean the sizzle of oil - which I can understand - or something about the actual pan? Are you giving it a ding with a spoon…?

I actually wonder if it’s learnable or if it’s another weird genetic quirk like tongue rolling…
tashldn.bsky.social
I can flare my nostrils and roll my tongue - but weirdly that’s genetic so I can’t claim it as a talent. No nose fluting here lol. We must have had parallel eight year old lives - we seem to have aimed at a very similar list of accomplishments. My mum can wiggle her ears!
tashldn.bsky.social
I’m actually good at dealing with emergencies. Much better than I am at day to day life lol…
tashldn.bsky.social
Cook by hearing? Please explain…
tashldn.bsky.social
I can do the coins thing, whistle without humming, wink with either eye and raise one eyebrow. Going to try the whistle-hum thing later because eight year old me would be really chuffed to be able to do this lol…

There really ought to be bluesky pilots though…
tashldn.bsky.social
To be fair, when I’m on a plane, I want to know the pilot can fly a plane, not whether they can write an A level essay…
