I am currently sitting in front of my computer, which is in my kitchen, waiting for something to finish cooking in my microwave.
As I will be eating shortly, one might well wonder why I chose to sign in, or why I feel compelled to share this uninteresting news with you.
Well, I did not know that within 5 minutes of me signing in, my son was going to ask if I fancied something to eat, which I do... because I'm hungry. So, now I'm sitting here thinking, "Don't get too involved with the forum discussions, or at least not until after I've eaten."
"That's all well and good", you might think, "but why are you telling us all this?"
Um, I have no idea. None whatsoever.

Very cool collection to have. I only have one umbrella but it’s a good one. It has a red question mark handle
Concise and beautifully timed
Crackers? Oh, sometimes
I must apologise. You should have told me BEFORE that you were hoping for a doggie bag. Too late now because I wolfed the whole lot down.
My thoughts never go anywhere, as is evident on an hourly basis. I'm just grateful that an aristocrat like yourself binned her pie and mash in order to address the likes of me.
No 2. Sounds worse than it was
Ok I can’t see those brands without thinking of 1. Laughing robots 2. Cartoon children smelling brown vapour and levitating from its effects. An 80s childhood will do that to you
Interesting!

Just what are you implying here? Just where are you going with this?
Yum
Umbrella Studies might be interesting. I have a small collection of antique/vintage parasols and umbrellas.
Welcome back.
*hides*
No, you are not subjects. Subjects are what one does at school, don't you know. An umbrella term if you like for the likes of Maths, English, etc.
Wrong! Whilst the microwave has its uses, I do not consider it stimulating and enjoyable company.
Elitist behaviour? [Shakes head and tuts]
Thank you, Your Majesty. I appreciate you explaining this. I would not have got a wink of sleep tonight had you not as I would have been awake tossing and turning all night wondering. I trust you enjoyed your feast and that it was glorious. Any leftovers please leave out back and I will collect in due course.
Yes, important that you do eat something.
You might regret asking the 'Question of the hour'. I commenced eating at 20:42 (according to the clock on my PC). I had pie and mash (Smash), with gravy (Bisto).
Additional info (aren't you lucky?) - The microwave (combination microwave) had been pre-heated to 200°C as per the cooking instructions for the pie.
I once met David Bellamy on a train. Neither of us was driving it. It was a long time ago.
