[15:24] <BluesKaj> hiyas folks
[16:12] <bregma> snow day here, schools are open but the buses are not running
[16:56] <BobJonkman> genii-around is here!  Quick, hide the tea and crumpets!  Bring out the coffee and donuts!
[16:57] <genii-around> Mmmm crumpets!
[16:57] <genii-around> Your tea is safe though, don't worry... ;)
[16:58] <BobJonkman> I was thinking you wouldn't want to associate with those tea-drinking types...
[16:59] <genii-around> I actually drink tea sometimes too, it's not *all* coffee and donuts...
[17:00] <BobJonkman> So, coffee or tea for lunch?
[17:01] <genii-around> Actually V8 today, and a $5 Subway submarine sandwich...
[17:02] <genii-around> But of course I have a pot of decent coffee on in my office too
[17:02] <BobJonkman> I've got leftovers.  Gotta go, before there's a lineup at the microwave.
[17:02] <genii-around> Run!
[18:56]  * genii-around makes some tea for a change
[19:42] <dscassel> I'll take an Irish Breakfast, milk, two sugars.
[19:44] <bregma> mmm, Irish breakfast: bacon, eggs, sausage, black pudding, white pudding, toast, maybe a broiled tomato, juice and coffee
[19:44]  * genii-around slides dscassel a nicely steeped tea with just the right amount of milk and sugar
[19:45] <bregma> can't get black pudding like that here
[19:46] <bregma> we make Irish breakfast tea here the old-fashioned way when we get the cookstove fired up and can leave the pot brewing over night
[19:47] <bregma> thick and rich and still black even when you've added lots of milk
[19:49] <bregma> it's so strong you could leave a spoon standing up in it if it didn't dissolve first
[19:54] <willwh> bregma: yum
[19:55] <willwh> http://www.orrsbutchers.com/
[19:55] <willwh> ^ from Milngavie
[19:55] <dscassel> Mm, nice.
[19:55] <willwh> they have 3 locations on the island now I think
[19:55] <willwh> there haggis [19:55] <willwh> their*
[19:55] <willwh> scotch eggs, black pudding, square (lorne) suasage etc
[19:55] <willwh> yum yum yum
[20:10] <bregma> we can get blood sausage here but it's not the same, distinctly different texture
[20:13] <genii-around> A lot of people don't like the idea of blood sausage, haggis, etc. But I'll eat anything.
[20:18] <bregma> if only then knew what went into a hot dog....
