To err is human. To really foul things up requires a computer and the BOFH.

And for launch, puvpxra & zhfuebbz cvr (zzzzz! cvr!) with sugar-snap
peas (all gorn, now) green beans, parsnip, On!on & celery, fried in
EVOO, with Rusty's unpatented gravy - melt a dollop of butter in a
sospan fach, add mixed peppercorns and thyme pounded and ground with a
pestle and mortar, a modicum of ground dried garlic, plain flour and
half a lamb-stock cube, more than just a pinch of ground mace, stir
together over heat, stirring the while, add hot leek-water (not leak
water) until the correct consistency is attained
(stick-to-your-ribs-thickness), serve.

Bop! Bop!
Bop!
Bop!
OUT!
Bop!

Wot, two hot meals in one day? I'd be utterly rotund if I did that.

It is the most efficient harvest known. I've never seen a ghoti
that still has its fingers.

I've been a skinny abstrad all my life - I was once 6' 0½" and weighed
11 stone 7lbs. Now (perhaps) bits are falling-off or shrinking and I
weigh more like 10 stone. Need medicinal compounds like Brother Tony, innit.

Nice glass of cod-liver-oil? Skaal!

Nice glass of castor oil? Nah, put it in yer petrol, makes a fine UCL
and smells divine!
