Wait. Didn't we ban on topic posts?

I thought we got as far as trying to figure out what the topic was, before,
er, we went off topic and started talking about jaffa cakes.

Did we agree to all abrr type people presenting RR with a packet of the
official newsgroup biscuit?

The only problem I can see with this is that RR may be so overwelemd
with jaffa Cakes that he decides to write a book about them with the
obvious side effect of making them very much *on topic*.

I don't care who it is - they're not having my jaffa cakes. And don't
start the whole 'biscuit' thing again...

I think I should have cut those events off... They are official
Sproutlore type stuff and involve memberships and cover charges and
the like (and you'll hear about them if you are a member of sproutlore
soon enough, not that I am but I know a man who is Smile).

As for giving RR a jaffa cake, he'd probably accept it and then hint
you should buy him a beer to wash it down with.

Hmm - how about presenting him with a packet of 'own-brand' jaffa cakes?
That should be just as confusing for him, while keeping more of the good
stuff for us.

Ah, yes. So they are, well I feel a bit better about not being able to
make them now...

I really must get around to sending off my seven quid (or whatever it is
now) to join the club.

cheers,
Dave

Me too. If only they'd take PayPal or something else that doesn't involve me
moving from this spot...

Last time I joined, I collared James in a pub when he was over here for
something. That worked quite nicely Smile

Prompted by this I've finally got round to sending a cheque off today Smile
I quite fancy the picnic actually, it's a long way for a pint and a
sarnie but god willing picnicers will be feasting on Jaffas, just hope
they don't make the Large taste funny.
