Yesterday I Ate

I just take a plain scone ("sconn") and eat it like a sandwich or a burger, but with nothing in it. Even I got bored typing that.

It bloody did! Twice in fact: we gave you the ranking, then reorganised them (for other reasons - who wanted to be an Orne? Who even remembers what an Orne is!?) so you were the Sausage again for a bit.

So everyone says 'sconn' then, apart from Muss when he feels like it. That does seem like an awfully dull way to eat 'em Cappa, but at the same time sometimes I just want to eat a lump of bread and I guess it's a similar thing.

I remember when I played the cello as a kid I used to have to go to an orchestra group in Perth and there was a conductor who was 100 years old who always used to joke about the kids who came from Scone (not me) and pronounce it like 'sconn' even though the place is pronounced 'skoon' and it was very tedious but that's the humour you develop when you're 100 years old I guess

Dammit - I was trying to find a GIF of that bit in The Animaniacs where Christopher Walken is eating a Peanut Butter sandwich. Just everyone go away and imagine it.

That cream tea setup looked ace Balla - you're a lucky guy!

Thanks Jim, I was. Also: did you see about the new Animaniacs series?

Yay, school string orchestra buddies! I played the violin - well enough to plug through the grades, but too shakily to do anything beyond that. Horrible stage fright.
