This one is really something else. I suppose if you're just basically opposed to the meat sauce concept, there's no real helping you. I am probably biased in that I love me a good ragu. This one isn't much work, either - most of the cooking time is just leaving it to simmer.

I cannot recommend this or this enough - both are fantastically delicious and pretty easy. The home-made gnocchi are a really nice touch, too - not too difficult, but it shows you care :)

Fentiman's isn't really fizzy pop though, is it? I mean, yeah, it's fizzy and sweet but it's a bit too grown up. I don't think it counts unless it comes in a can or an undersized plastic bottle.

Their tonic water is bloody marvellous, though.

Not all tea is white or green.

Do you have a single picture of that? That is why one refers to each style of dress as 'white tie' and 'black tie'.

monkihed · 12 days

No, it's white tie, and that's a tailcoat. Nobody with a shred of self-respect would wear a white tie with a dinner jacket. Ugh.

A dirty stop-out is British (and possibly Australian) slang for one who has stayed out so long that they failed to make it back to their own bed, with the implied cause being alcohol or sex. Cf. the "walk of shame". Often meant in a rather tongue-in-cheek fashion.

Do you have really terrible bladder control? I usually drink a pint of water before going to bed when I'm not drinking; if booze has been involved it's more likely to be two. I just wake up if I need to pee.

Raves are usually illegal parties usually in found spaces - warehouses, unused bulidings, farmland, that sort of thing. Organised by the people who loved doing it, publicised by word of mouth and often free - and drugs were a very big part of it. It was basically the counter culture of the 90s.

Clubs might play the same sort of music, and even have similar people going - but it's a very different feel. Some clubs straddle the line - where I'm from, in the UK, for example, there are some club nights run by the same sort of people who ran raves back in the day.

It takes me exactly one minute and forty-two seconds to get from my front door to the bar in Pivni. Mwahahaa.

chromiselda · 16 days

I have the good fortune to live down St Andrewgate, so one (or several) of them is always on my way home no matter which direction I'm coming from :D

Everything he's saying is technically accurate, it just seems irrelevant to you ~~uncivilized plebs~~ fine people.

Sorry, but unless the one in Warsaw is positioned in front of exactly the same trees, lamp and fence, then you're wrong. Source: I live about 150 yards away from this statue. You can just about see them in this picture.

Actually, I'm almost certain that this is in York, just outside the Minster. Constantine, innit. It's common practice for local yooves to put sunglasses on him.

I know some people who do showing in them - I don't really care for that sort of thing, being more of a hunting person. Is it a requirement in the US that one wear field boots for shows? I believe that, short of splurging on custom made, you essentially have a choice between elastic panels which allow for wide calves, or the "field boot look". There are some European brands - Petrie and Konig, iirc - which have very customisable sizes, but you're getting north of £400 a pair with them.

Cream tea is £8.50 - which I suspect might be two or three quid more than other tea rooms. There's also the fact that it's big - much bigger than any of the other places I can think of, and if there's a lot of us it might be worth ringing ahead to book a table. I suppose you could put it to the multitude sometime before the event and see what people think?

chromiselda · 18 days

No worries! Also, can I suggest that if we want to do the proper tea & scones thing, we should really go to Betty's? I mean, it is the tea rooms to which all others aspire. And everybody loves Fat Rascals :)

Tall boots all the way. I am also short with wide calves, and Mountain Horse High Riders are absolutely fantastic, and they come in short & wide sizes. My last pair set me back about £130 and they usually last three years (for me, riding 3-6 hours/week and yard stuff maybe 12-20 hours per week). And they don't take much breaking in - a week or so of wearing them for everyday stuff and they're dandy.

There is no greater welly in existence than the Ariat Mudbuster. I work outdoors and believe me, I have been through my share of wellies and the mudbusters are warm, comfortable and smart (for a welly). I find I go through about one pair a year but I wear them for 40 hours a week. If you want something a bit jauntier, Joules do really cute wellies.

Ooh, I can recommend pubs. Assuming we're all real people who drink proper beer, anyway.

If the weather is nice, we should absolutely go to the Lamb & Lion on High Petergate, as it has the best beer garden in York. It has a small, but good selection of guest ales. Just over the road, there's also the Three-Legged Mare, owned by York Breweries. Around the corner on Stonegate, I'd recommend the House of the Trembling Madness (fantastic medieval building with a substantial beer menu and a small but good selection of food) or the Old Starre Inn, which is York's oldest licensed pub. The Guy Fawkes is famous for being the birthplace of same, and does food. On Goodramgate there's a few to choose from; Snickleway, the Royal Oak, the Golden Slipper and the Old White Swan are all pretty decent, and the latter does typical pub food. On King's Square there's the Last Drop Inn (another York Brewery place), and around the corner on Patrick Pool there's my personal favourite, Pivni (large beer menu, interesting guest beers). The Golden Fleece, on Pavement, purports to be York's "most haunted pub", make of that what you will however it does have a nice little beer garden and is another contender for being one of the oldest pubs in York. A bit further out, there's also the Rook & Gaskill at the bottom of Lawrence Street (has won CAMRA awards) or the Slip Inn on Clementhorpe. Honourable mention goes to the Maltings on Tanner's Moat, which I've personally never been to but has a good reputation.

I think that's most of the ones worth visiting, certainly in the city centre.

He looks like a friggin' ken doll. I think it is fair to assume that he has similar anatomy. There's nothing down there but featureless disappointment.

You are absolutely right. If women insist on wearing clothes cut tightly enough to show off their figures, then they have no grounds to complain when they get stared at, or if people make comments. They are dressing sexily, so they clearly want attention. Realistically, if they didn't want to be noticed, then they would wear modest clothes, something that hides the figure. Close-fitting clothes are basically like being naked in different colours, right? So really, they want to wear something baggy and shapeless, covering up everything from say around the neck to the ankle. And of course, plenty of men find pretty faces very sexy, so they should cover them up too.

Yeah, hahaha, girls are too stupid to know how to use their feet. No man worth his salt would ever be caught dead on one of those!

(note: this is SARCASM. DrFuzzyBalls is being a sexist fuckwit, not that that is unique in this thread, apparently.)
