Pigeons Finally Are of Some Use
Pigeons are a singularly useless creature, lest you are a flat capped pigeon fancier I suppose.
Personally I walk a mile barefoot over hot coals to avoid these feathered rats.
Doing nothing but carry germs and crap everywhere these flying Petri dishes should be wiped off the face of the earth.
Having thought them to be useless, they can at least provide amusement, well for me anyway, though some distress for children in Hyde Park the other day.
A pelican eats a pigeon in Hyde Park !
Spookily, on the same day I built a page on OMITK’s website and this picture he took accompanied it, thanks to Gourmet Food Source for the pic
Pigeon with Salsify & Nettle a la Our Man in the Kitchen
Looks good enough to eat !
Possibly then, they get a reprieve - surely there are stranger things out there people have eaten?

Rod,
My lawyers are on to you for content theft!
Must agree with your comments about them, as a living bird they are truly annoying and why anyone would want to breed them is beyond me.
Everytime I cook one I think ‘there’s one less’!

OMITK,
no only have I stolen your content but also hotlinked the image, every time someone sees the picture you are supplying the bandwidth,
Cheers!
PS, keep pigeon on the menu, every little helps

Rod,
Re bandwidth, just tried finding it in your glossary of terms to no avail, should I be annoyed about supplying it?!

Always be annoyed OMITK when someone takes something from you!
Hacking in to someone elses files, Mr Collins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As to the ‘Flying rats’ i must agree with your contempt of them. The plate of food does indeed look appetizing, although finding lead-shot in my meal is not!
I dare say Mr Chapman of Lincoln, would turn his nose up at this plate, as there is normally more meat in one quater of his ‘legendary bacon
sandwich’.

Hacking in to someone elses files, Mr Collins
Since I put every one of them there I feel I can take liberties, if he ever finds out about another site I have (red-hot-honeyz.net) which uses his server and bandwidth he’ll be furious
Re SC
The Chapman empire wasn’t built by eating all that fancy foreign crap, nor would it sustain his also legendary reproductive abilities

Witches,
I am avaliable for kidnap but if you are wanting a ransom from my family you may be waiting a while. I have been told that I am talented in other areas, the lovely Ursula tells me that I am very good with my hands-”soft and gentle, yet so very strong” whatever that means.
As for the pigeon dish, when I cooked it Master Chapman of Lincoln told me in no uncertain terms that Mr Chapman of Lincoln’s Cabillaud Frit Pane avec Salad et Frittes (oven fish and chips with a bit of tomato and cucumber sans vinaigrette) quote: “urinated all over my efforts” He did say, however that he was concerned about Mr Chapman’s wish to be addressed as ‘Chef’ in future.

Re: Cabillaud Frit Pane avec Salad et Frittes! Jeez!! Get a life OMITK !!
Mr SC. One would not fire quips at your vast flank if it wasnt so vast. Us ladies of the RC site have to keep ourselves fit and trim, so the men of the site should do likewise!
Friv RC. Been spending again??!! The price of petrol, is that in your budget?
Jordan said,

PS. Where is the ‘Wintertime Rod’ pic? Or the ‘Halloween Rod’ pic? I am sure WoE would like the latter.
Rod said,

Jordan,
yes indeed, spending again, £48 on petrol alone yesterday morning
Thanks for the reminder about the picture, I need to sort that out.
For Hallowe’en I will just get a close up shot of me - that’s scarier than any costume or disguise.
I shall make a selection from my scarve collection in order to sort out a seasonally adjusted picture - will go out and buy some more rechargeable batteries ! More messing about and expense
Enjoy the weekend Jordan

SC: I think you should give the, Cabillaud Frit Pane avec Salad et Frittes and half pig sandwiches a miss!! How do you expect a Katie or a Pammie lookey-likey to come knocking at your door, indeed Mr Collins stands more of a chance!

Reply - Dear Jordan ,
Sadly I have to confess my experiences with Pammie look alikes … etc . have
been very costly over the years ! .
As such it would possibly be more viable to write her a cheque and send her on her way !
On a serious note i have always thought the blond babe look a bit false !
Possibly a bit to Avon and Top Girl !
The make up etc .. always seems to hide something more underneath !.
And with all things, time and age will tell .
( as such Mr Collins is very welcome )

How did you manage to escape? Vacancy on board, one head chef/sports masseur required ……. malheureusement ….. Urs

Ursula,
Bonjour mon petit framboise! I escaped with Gunga Din through the laundry shaft after giving everyone the screamers in Port Said, I told Gunga the pigeon pastilla’s smelt a bit funny and just as he said something about feathers and rats Porsche the beauty therapist blew the Captain’s horn and the noise drowned him out!

Re Avon and Top Girl, I’ve really no idea what that look is.
