Two phrases (or descriptions, before any of you pedants jump on me) floated into my head this morning - 'Brilliant Cut' for diamonds, and 'Herding Cats' for what I will be doing as Project Manager for the next round of improvements to our pub.
I have two jobs to finish this week before I can get down to the serious work of icing the cake.
Herding cats - never heard that before but brilliant. Talk about a totally impossible task. As for diamonds - as far as I am concerned they are certainly a girl's best friend.
ReplyDeleteNever heard it, and 20 years older than me?
DeleteWhy not make a large, solid block of royal icing and sculpt it into something impressive (Jesus on a unicorn?), then hollow the base and fill it with a rich fruit cake?
ReplyDeleteI will be doing something like that, albeit in reverse order and with secular subject matter.
DeleteI had to do a double take on 'cut'. I then stopped reading due to disappointment.
ReplyDeleteSorry. Next time I will make it one paragraph.
DeleteIf I am disappointed in the first paragraph it makes no difference.
DeleteWell fuck off then and leave me alone! (I am taking the piss out of you with this comment, I don't really mean it, just incase you are feeling a bit sensitive tonight)
DeleteAs if I care by now.
DeleteWell, just a bit.
DeleteIs 'Rachel' a pseudonym used by your brother?
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but it might explain the lengthy conversations I have to go through to make up lost time.
DeleteYou're doing pretty well so far bruv.
