And I appreciate everyone pitch-hitting for Candace whilst we were 'cross the pond.<BR/><BR/>I started my second half-century at Canterbury Cathedral. I figure that has to count for some kind of good Anglican karma.<BR/><BR/>The comments about the oxy-moronic "British Cuisine" summed things up pretty well; with Thomas Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614776349573944795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19470423.post-1154231887982759832006-07-29T22:58:00.000-05:002006-07-29T22:58:00.000-05:00Thanks for the compliment OHTS.

Probably just another example of how great minds think alike, or else, we were both traumatized as children by a horse. I'm betting on the former.ronniebeegoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05556926328297072579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19470423.post-1154192957817287272006-07-29T12:09:00.000-05:002006-07-29T12:09:00.000-05:00Hale McKay is not innocent of anything.

Didn't mean to imply anything by that. Just goes to show my mind is not in gear at 2 in the morning (or, any other time for that matter).<BR/><BR/>Pooks, I have to admit that I had some excellent Brisket and Roast beef as well as fish and chips. As long as they didn't put those awful peas over them.

We're not overly fond of the mushy peas, and I've never seen them served OVER the fries.Patricia Burroughs aka Pookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13000770987295390045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19470423.post-1154132324761988012006-07-28T19:18:00.000-05:002006-07-28T19:18:00.000-05:00ronnie,I'm an English major. it's "effect."

Anyway, do you think I should delete them? Don't want to offend anyone, especially Tom or Candace when they get back. They just looked pretty cute to me. A nice gag gift for a guy.<BR/><BR/>We went to some pubs and had some full English breakfasts while we were there. The later was at the hotel though, so it probably doesn't count.ronniebeegoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05556926328297072579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19470423.post-1154108004704377832006-07-28T12:33:00.000-05:002006-07-28T12:33:00.000-05:00Where to begin?!?
