    Possibly the greatest of all sammiches Grem! Can't beat an aul ham, egg mayo and tomato number either! :D Mmmmm when's lunch?! :pac:

    BLT for me! Cant bate em :pac:

    Although back in my college days I remember a few of us used to have the place wrecked, typical students and the grill on the cooker went on fire so many times from fat in it that the entire cooker unit stopped working. So one night we got back from a drunken night out and I decided to make us all some BLT's.
    But then I remembered the grill/cooker weren't working so couldn't grill or fry the rashers.
    So I whipped out the deep fat fryer. Oh my sweet divine jaysus the state of rashers out of a deep fat fryer, it was pure cardboard!
    Still, we'd nothing else left so some slightly stale bread with rock hard deep fried rasher-cardboard and a thinly sliced 7 day old tomato - we didn't have lettuce or butter or ketchup.

    Did the trick! Everyone complained and called them vile and then proceeded to eat them anyway.
    Lovely jubbly! :D

    Loving the photos Dave. My old stomping ground so always have an affinity with the area.

    Mixed day. My best laid plans to take the afternoon off were thwarted as my boss called a meeting But My parents invited me to dinner tomorrow, I have a drink in hand and takeaway on the way, so things looking up.

    Can I go through that door? Went through one earlier and spent the afternoon in 'another world'. Migraine knocked me out but thankfully the sleep did the trick. Probably be awake for the rest of the night, though.

    Hope you have an easy shift, Grem. Not having it easy lately, are you?

    Town here is busy as well. I’m proper pissed off with the whole Covid thing. We were doing really well for a while but I see a good few and they are showing fcuk all compliance to guidance anymore.
    No wonder the numbers are going upwards again and the same few will be the ones giving out if our county is put under lockdown again.
    I just needed a rant, sorry guys :)

    Rambo - Last Blood? Well I can't recommend it enough if you are of a certain vintage. It's a bit like the movie, Taken, except it's on serious drugs.:D I grew up on Stallone movies, usually on VHS.:eek: Rambo. Rocky. All good! Going searching for more movies that inspire me to get beyond my literally two listings on IMDB! I have time on my hands at last, but need to move fast!:D

    That's it , thank you Sardi!
    Quite apt lyrics for Daves pic imo .

    Migraines are a b@stard, think everyone's are recurring more often lately it seems?

    Probably be glitched out again now too.

    Listening to some latin music waiting for covid test results to come back after doing the test today as I had mild symptoms. Hopefully get the all clear in the next couple of days. Might binge some netflix for the weekend in a small bit.
