Happy Birthday Bryan!

The big 3-0 ! Fancy that!

When in The Czech Republic....hang on a minute!

One would have thought we were in the Czech Republic when one observed the festivities that occurred on Friday night. The long wooden table, the gently falling rain....actually I have no idea what the Czech republic is like so I'll cut the crap.

The SRF headed to Domo, the Czech beer cafe in Paddington. The food and beer were GREAT! Would have been better if we had all been working out in the fields pulling heavy ploughs and planting loads of wheat so as to work up the appropriate appetite for the mountains of food we were served, but we did our best anyway.

Noodle skipped all the fancy pancy salad/green stuff and went straight for a plate of meat (I'm not kidding either!), Evil went for the plate of deep fried brie (more commonly known as heart-attack on a plate) and a number of others had whole chickens battered and deep fried and passed off as a schnitzel!

The beer was GREAT! did I mention that? Especially the rasberry flavoured one, great to start on.

All other beers were of the usual variety (albeit the size of a small swimming pool)

After everyone was well and truly stuffed on beer and meat, we all thought a quiet sit down and small talk would prepare us for our journey home....NOT SO! Two intrepid eaters (read: Sarah and Flit) decided a spot of dessert was in order and asked for the largest, thickest, stodgiest strudel in the world...Little did they know that this strudel was full of cinnamon, so much so in fact that we could smell it from down the table when they spoke!

Ahhh! Good times and classic hits!

The monotony must continue!

I come to the members of the Stephen Roberts Foundation today for guidance. You see, over the summer I have been laboriously converting my CD collection into the digital format, in order to make full use of the ipod shuffle which Sarah gave me for my birthday (woohoo!). However, even as I type this very line my task is coming to a close, for the last track of the last cd is now being recorded. My quandry is this: I have two days off a week (Tues and Fri) until uni goes back, and I need a new monotonous and time-consuming task to keep me busy....
I'm throwing it open to you: suggestions?

The weekly Dad Joke... Only just on Wednesday!

This week's Dad Joke entries had all the hallmarks that we're looking for... Bad puns, rude bits, innapropriate language.....

Loved 'em all!

But the winner is......


A couple decided to go for a meal and after some deliberation settled for their local Chinese restaurant. They peruse the menu and finally agree to share the chef's special 'Chicken Surprise'. The waiter brings over the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot.
Just as the wife is about to start in on the meal, the lid of the pot rises by a tiny amount and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams back down.
'Good grief, did you see that?' she asks her husband.
He hasn't so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and he sees two beady little eyes looking around before it firmly slams back down. Rather perturbed he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening, and demands an explanation.
'Well sir', says the waiter, 'What did you order?'
'We both chose the same', he replies, 'the Chicken Surprise'
'Oh I do apologise, this is my fault' says the waiter...


'...I've brought you the Peeking duck.'






But this was a very close runner up!

A guy walks into his bedroom with a sheep under his arm and says:
"Darling, this is the pig I have sex with when you have a headache."
His wife is lying in bed and replies: "I think you'll find that's a sheep, you idiot."
The man says: " I think you'll find I wasn't talking to you."
