It's been grey and wet all day here. Not much to report - Mrs CB has a stinking cold and the CovKids have been crazy all day after a breakfast of Maltesers. Thankfully the planned (partial) cleaning of their bedroom happened enough to make it functional, but in return they've trashed the front room.
Faster than usual, if anything. The only delay was due to the cook being so busy texting on her phone that she hadn’t noticed that an order had come in until the front-of-house lady went in the back and loudly castigated her (a mode of communication for which whatever Chinese language they speak seems extremely well suited)
Tea this evening is chili con carne (big pan of currently cooking on the stove) with rice and one of those nice little Xmas puds from Morrisons to follow, with custard.
All to be rounded off with 1.05 pints of Good Glengettie Tea.
And so it transpired, though I was a little heavier on the chili powder than usual.
I've always wondered - how does one make precisely 1.05 pints of Good Glengettie Tea?
The 1.05 pints of Good Glengettie Tea is achieved by filling the little stainless steel teapot to a given mark which achieves the desired result of two mugs of tea.
The evening's televisual entertainment was predicated on S5 E20, 21, & 22, plus the special bits & pieces of Angel.
E20 may be regarded as filler, it advanced nothing and supposedly had Buffy knocking off The Immortal in Italy.
SMG did not appear.
E21 & 22 finished the series off reasonably well.
I'd forgotten an amazing amount of it all.
Very sad that Andy Hallett (Lorne the green demon) popped his clogs 5 years later due to a heart infection he acquired due to ignoring a missing dental filling during E22.

To be followed by an unfortunate effect on the StrangeloveDigestionSystem?
I wouldn't expect one but over the next few weeks the remaining portions will fester in the freezer and by the 3rd week of Jan should be up to ring stinging strength.
