Secret Ingredients

November 9th, 2009 by Dave

Photo by Ben ChauCW hasn’t been very well and for once it isn’t something she got from me.  Oh, and for the dirty minded amongst you, I mean she has a cold…or swine flu, possibly..nothing else. I have been trying to do the caring boyfriend bit…you know guys, trying to persuade her to have a [...]

Discombobulatory ramblings

November 5th, 2009 by Dave

Photo by Xosé CastroI don’t know if I can say that I am completely suffering from writers block right now…writers malais possibly, writers half a job definitely…the problem I have is that I have ideas…see things, hear things that would normally dump me in front of my PC for a decent writing session.  Now, having [...]

Valentines Day

February 14th, 2009 by Dave

So this Saturday is the official made up day of lurve.  I say made up as it does seem to be a little too commercialised..looking into the whole “St Valentine” thing just results in admittance that there was nothing romantic in it at all. As Barry White once said “I’m gonna love you, love you; [...]

My first thanksgiving

December 2nd, 2008 by Dave

Sorry for not posting so regularly, my bloody social life is getting in the way. So after 35 years on this planet, most of them spent watching American films and TV shows…I finally got to my very first Thanksgiving dinner.  Ok, so it was in Germany..with 4 Germans, an Aussie and a Brit…but there were [...]

Hot stuff

November 14th, 2008 by Dave

So I was begging for inspiration, when IP delivered a recount of a story where two people were snogging each others faces off and Z put his finger in the girls mouth.  She enthusiastically started sucking on his finger, realising a little too late that Z had dipped his finger in Tabasco sauce…. Now, I [...]

Bambi Platter

November 7th, 2008 by Dave

So I went out last night for Hs birthday.  We went to an olde worlde German restaurant where a number of us were instantly of the opinion that we must eat Bambi. Now don’t get me wrong, I am not an emotionless vessel of hate (not right now anyway)….I can get upset at films, books, [...]

Cake or death….

October 16th, 2008 by Dave

So it looks like there is a possibility I will be in England for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my folks.  It goes without saying that I will do my damndest to get to see the kids at the same time, and I am sure I will manage to achieve it.  That said, it [...]

Bring on the heat

October 10th, 2008 by Dave

I was talking to the guys at work yesterday, as it would appear that some of them are missing the national food of Great Britain…namely Hot Curry (and yes, the capitalisation is necessary).  Apparently, a place has been located that understands the term “English Hot please”. Germans don’t do spicey food..they place a 3 chilli [...]

Tradition or slow suicide?

September 24th, 2008 by Dave

We have a tradition in our family…created I think by a series of drunken bets on behalf of my parents and their friends.  The tradition is that we will barbequeue on New Years Day…regardless of location and weather conditions.  It is something that I have tried to maintain over the years….it just seems like a [...]

Healthy?!?

August 24th, 2008 by Dave

OK, put the paramedics on alert….for soon….I shall run. I have visions of my athletic prowess from my youth springing to the fore and running a record time around Frankfurt, passing professionals with consumate ease and mocking them mercilessly….. Visions that are definitely suggesting that I am not entirely in my right mind.  There may [...]
