Better check the odometer when you get it back.

Got my free jumbo jack for hamburger day, just had to buy a medium fry to qualify.
I feel like they gave me small vegetables out of spite, but it was still good. I slapped some bbq sauce on it to kick it up a notch.

I always wonder about these "days". Like apparently Taco Day is October 4th and burrito day is the first Thursday of April.

Pizza day is February 9th. Who decides this stuff?

I've been trying various canned refried beans.
La Sierra are Mexico's #1 canned beans.

Going by the taste, I don't think Mexicans much bother with canned beans, because La Sierra is BLAND. Do they taste like beans? Yup. But the dominant note on these beans is water.

Right now my winners for canned refried are surprisingly the kroger house brand. They taste good without being overpowering, but I suppose I'll have to branch out for others.

I suppose I should give my childhood staple rosarito another shot too.

A week in Cornwall was hectic, weather so so so abused the buses and trains.
Excellent

It's grim down south.

Day 5: still no unicorn, and no prospect until at least day 8 (Memorial Day weekend).

Stop sniggering at the back.

It must take them a while to strip out all those immaculate parts under the hood, and replace them with old tat they bought from eBay.

I took the unicorn* in to get the TVs fixed - "we will need it all day, sir".
Next day - "you had better plan for us to have it for today as well, sir"
Day three "it may not be ready until tomorrow, thank you for your patience ..."

I feel that I have betrayed the point of this thread ...

Yes, I laughed today
