R to @BootstrapCook: I mean, I don’t expect everyone (or even anyone) to like me nor agree with everything I say and do, but the blatant disregard for the safety and welfare of a LITERAL CHILD certainly raises some questions about the moral state of anyone choosing to go to such obscene lengths…

Anyone else having a Rather Renegade Christmas? I’m not cooking a traditional dinner this year - instead I’m planning a suet crust beef and onion pie, mash, jellied eels, proper bright green parsley liquor, and lashings of home made chilli vinegar. do all the daft rules.

R to @BootstrapCook: (I’ll take photos! Used to make a pork version when I worked in Blackfoot on Exmouth Mkt, so this isn’t my first rodeo. Very very excited for it. Especially SBs reaction to jellied eels 😂)

R to @David67016669: That’s tomorrows mission… hopefully the local cockle sheds will be open, if not there’s a place on the seafront that does them!

R to @Innerslutgoblin: Malt vinegar, couple of finely sliced fat red and green chillis, couple of cloves of garlic also finely sliced, few leaves of basil or a shake of mixed dried herbs, pop it all in a bottle, shake well, and refrigerate for a day or so. Then go wild with it.

R to @GriffAurora: Jellied eels are such a treat. First tried them when covering the fish counter at a supermarket as a teenager - my manager dared me to eat one and I’m a bit stubborn about that kind of thing - to her disgust I bloody LOVED it! 😁

R to @craigstone_: And it never occurs to them that in some of the hundreds of interviews I have given over the years, some of the journalists may have written bits up wrong!! No massive conspiracy here, just journalistic license, human error, and things changing over time. Terribly boring, I know.

RT by @BootstrapCook: You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Maya Angelou

PS, one thing I learned to protect my sobriety, mental health, and general status of staying alive, is if I happen to be trending on Twitter, no good can come of clicking on it to find out why. So talk/libel/lie amongst yourselves all damn day, I really don’t care to check it out

R to @BootstrapCook: Currently playing a 2D world building computer game with SB, pinned to the couch by a dog who is as large as I am, having just had a 2 hour phone call with a friend who is 30 years sober and an absolute HOOT. I’m not gonna spoil any of that by eavesdropping on conspiracy asshats.

R to @GarethWaugh: Just you wait til you’re trying to work out the unholy biology-chemistry-physics trinity of cleaning liquid s off their scalp and soles of their feet at the same time, wondering how exactly your life ended up HERE and why you’re so happy about it 🤯

R to @TropTropBurra: I’m not. I still have to actually eat. Take a day off, ye tedious git.
