	You know, the one about inviting my friend round for tea. We are having spaghetti.

	'Sic transit Gloria mundi' Are you having sauce with the spaghetti? :-D :-D

	Well,yes. Spaghetti would be very dull without a sauce. Because I am a vegetarian, I make bognaise sauce with Quorn mimce, onions, garlic, red wine, green Oxos and a bit of Worcester. Sometimes, if I am really being extravagant or there are some that need using up, I will put sliced mushrooms in as well. Now, there's contention if ever I saw it!

	That actually sounds very nice, Sharron :-)

	Oh I take offence at the mushrooms sorry Sharron !!

	How can you take offence at the mushrooms? They are real fun guys :-D :-D

	Hey like the RR and Genes I don't need to justify my stance :)

	Sounds very tasty :-D
	Researching: I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday

	I will make the sauce nice and sloppy, the better to enjoy watching our odd friend eat it. AND I WILL USE MUSHROOMS IF I WANT TO I might even go and buy some different ones just out of defiance!

	Caroline :-D :-D :-D :-D

	I trust your guest is in on the joke and puts on a good show for you?

	Well, no, but he puts on a good show anyway! It just enhances the show of talking while he has his mouth full and discussing his and his cats bowel movements over dinner. He will go anywhere and do anything for free food so we feel it is worth using him as free cabaret.

	Oh okay then if you insist Sharron, just don't pick your mushrooms in the New Forest
Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 16,020 Send Message	Sharron	Report	1 Sep 2016 12:50
	Oh alright then, I'll get them down the Co-op! I suppose, if I was a bit energetic, I could go out round the back field and see what I could see.
Member Since: September 2003 Posts: 15,964 Send Message	Island	Report	1 Sep 2016 12:52
	I feel sick now :-(

	We usually do as well.

	Yes but you call it entertainment :-0

	No, we call it exploitation. He has made me a new window sill, cleared my shed, built numerous flat-pack items for us, painted, varnished, made things. He has also told people my house is infested with rats but nobody takes any notice of his bullshine anyway. Did I try at any point to give the impression that he was in any way normal.

	In that case he deserves mushrooms !
