On a what is proving to be a day in which I have had a serious attack of blogorreah, I feel I have to balance the negatives with at least one positive - aren't pals the best thing in the world, ever!!!!
The other weekend I was bemoaning my lot in the pub, as is my custom, and droning on and on about how I absolutely adored steak and kidney pudding - note, PUDDING, not pie - but had not had one since I was a kid.
I have attempted to make them but my efforts to date have proved disastrous - suet pastry and muslin bags are tricky coves. So what happens today? Pals Phil and Sarah ring up to say that they have made me a PROPER pud! They have even printed off instructions on how to ensure it is steamed properly! This pair took up their Saturday morning making this magnificent creation for me and I shall be tucking into it tomorrow for lunch - heaven!
No empty "you're our friend" words - just actions which speak louder!! Pud-actions!!
Phil, Sarah and their little one, Hannah, are hereby granted lifetime immunity from deportation to Grantham, as are all my other pals.
