Another food choice of my mum's that I never liked - dripping on toast.

But, the dripping she ate was not from a nice pot bought at the butchers...

No, hers was from a bowl in the fridge that she constantly topped up with the fat from all the fried meals that she made us.

*makes barfing noises*
Image shows a tub of butchers pork fat (ie: dripping) some of which has been spread onto a piece of toast.

I won't do it, but I bet there's already some very obvious posts/comments doing the rounds for this...

In a similar vein, I got a message from the account shown below, which I did not open, so I dunno what it actually said.

But, I reported the account anyway, and I think that they have been suspended now.

Never mind all that...

Before Christmas there's a few weeks of "Fuck it, it's my birthday and I'm not dead" to use as an excuse! 🙂😁
Image shows the following text: I can't wait to start saying "Fuck it, it's Christmas" Fancy a drink tonight? "Fuck it, it's Christmas" Eat five packs of biscuits? "Fuck it, it's Christmas" Third night getting pissed in a row? "Fuck it, it's Christmas"

You're welcome to, tho! 🙂

Not sure I can stay up that late tonight tho, so fingers crossed it will be on i-player afterwards.

I don't think that Angel Delight is Butterscotch flavour...

In which case, the only other option here is the Arctic Roll!

Wasn't supposed to be drinking this weekend* but...I need to clear the decks, as I have bought a lot of fancy pants beers recently that I need to make room for!

So, I'm kicking things off with a little Cheeky V sour. 🙂🍺

Stourhead is one of my all-time favourite gardens to visit...

These days I like it for all the follies, but when I was young we always went at Rhodo time! 🌺 🙂
