A bit wobbly

[caddyman]

So last evening, a little before I was aiming to leave the office, romney phoned to announce that he had potentially secured supplies of the fabled Mushroom Ketchup. In fact there they were on the shelf in front of him and should he buy them?

Well, yes, he should. Of course he should.

This all lead to me scuttling into the West End at short notice and and meeting up at The Angel for a pint and to take delivery of the ketchup. I may have still been there at closing time, and I may have got home just after midnight.

I am clearly not as used to BOOZE as once I was since there is mild squiffiness this morning...

(Not ideally, the automatic cross post from Dreamwidth failed, so good old fashioned cut and paste was employed. That it took three attempts to get past an error message before I typed this and who knows how many after, I think the problem remains with LJ...)

What does the Mushroom Ketchup bottle look like ? Sainsbur's stock a mushroom ketchup so if it's teh same one it shouldn't be tricky to get hold of.

They are shaped a little like half brandy bottles, but smaller and with long necks.

As far as I am aware, Geo. Watkins is the only brand available nowadays.

I do like how these social networks let one ketchup with old friends.

Squiffy also.

Dreamwidth have changed the frequency of the attempts to cross post (made them further apart) to hopefully have a better chance of success. If you want to persevere with the cross-posting where they try three times for you, all you have to do is go into the edit screen of your entry and recheck the crosspost box before saving.

Yes, I tried that - it worked once and not the second time. I reckon it depends on how wonky LJ's servers are at the time!

[mathcathy]

Exactly that - so trying through DW is trying three times spaced over 20 minutes. Or try yourself one attempt per try.

LJ does seem to be resurrecting now. At least for a while.

So you are on Dreamwidth? Canny lad...

And a great big thank you to ROmney! *big kiss*

I would be most sad if the second brand of MK failed on me. I have already mourned the loss of the better one, the Burgess and adjusted the taste buds to the lesser one, Geo Watkins. None at all would be a blow indeed! I NEEDS it!
