[Phalanx]

Looks like the bread and butter pudding is sorted.
Just went out with Spal and bought a couple loaves of
light wholemeal with sultanas, eggs, and some strawberry conserve.
I'll make the custard myself (creme anglais anyways...:rolleyes: ), the rest
is pretty much a matter of adding the right spices and putting the rest of
the shit together.

and then the strangest thing...but it was great...on our way out of the shopping complex, as we were getting on our bikes, this guy comes out and says "it's coming" and runs the other way. The sky was pretty overcast, but the day has been sooooo hot...next set of lights, big fat drops start falling, then it went torrential within a minute...it absolutely BELTED down for the next 10 minutes. Just another example of our sometimes erratic weather here.
So, we pulled into a McD's and grabbed a couple of burgers, which we ate there, and they were actually fresh for once, so, that there's two peices of weirdness in one day. As we were heading off, the rain subsided, but we had a light downpour all the way home on our bikes...coolness...
Actually, there's been a bit more rain than usual here this time of year, could be for the first time in about 7-8 years we won't have a stinking hot christmas day. So, yeah...kinda off track there, but I had a story to tell...
