    My buffet technique improved over time.

    Should be on your CV as continuous improvement:

    personally led and refined processes relating to delivery of mission critical packages under tight deadlines and in high pressure environments. Continuously improved these approaches over a period of 6 years with tangible results for normally accepted metrics*

    *= I became a fat bastard

    That definition could be modified a litlle - breakfast buffets were generally 7 to 10am so definitely tight deadlines, and high presure if the bacon was running low. I perfected the buffet style over 20 years but 6 is probably enough, and yes the results were tangible and measurable- about 20 kilos I'd say.

    Oh and yes, but I skipped lunch to make me feel better.

    I must admit when I go to a kids party and there is a bowl of cheerios it is a magnet

    They are totally BBB but I'll hoover up a shitload of cheerios at kid's parties and still be dipping in long after they've run off to play

    I know it wasn't intentional, but this post comes across as decidedly dodgy....

    Bones brains and balls....

    Are those the ingredients of cherios?

    Probably. Like chicken nuggets it's all the scraps and shit isn't it?

    @canefan Yes.

    "Approximately, a mass produced chicken nugget has 50% meat and the rest is fat, ground bone, blood vessels and connective tissues.

    I don't have a problem with that.

    That is something that it is best not to think about. Like Donald Trump naked or Grey's Anatomy returning to TV.

    Me neither. I'll scoff a bowl full of cheerios with tom sauce or a 20 pack of nuggets easy as

    I'll take those odds anyway. 50% higher than expected.

    Movenpick Zurich

    Whole chain of them in Switzerland - used to frequent the one in Basel.

    They did a whole range of ice-cream too IIRC.

    Surprised no-on in the UK has mentioned Greggs. Freshly baked sausage rolls, baked bean and cheese melts, Bacon and cheese turnovers.

    Eat til your full and then some.

    Anything my mother-in-law makes; I blame her for my ever-expanding waistline. I am also very excited that we are watching the Test at her place on Sunday. It means I get to eat like a king and watch the AB at the same time. I can only think of one other thing that could top that.

    They did a steak & cheese roll that almost perfectly mimicked a dairy style pie - they then dropped it for a vegan roll so they're dead to me. That was similar to maccas cheeseburger for me - couldn't walk past without stopping in to grab a couple at 99p each.

    Whereas most of us shudder at that thought and get divorced instead

    I'm just intrigued as to how the conversation "your mum revs me up" goes with your other half.

    I can't begin to fathom how good the food would have to be to contemplate watching a test match at my MIL's place

    She's lovely actually, but fuck the interruptions and conversation!

    The funny thing is my MIL is passionate about the AB's and loves her rugby, I think we are the only 2 people in my postcode that even follow Rugby. We even went to an AB's game together 🙂

    @chimoaus treading a fine line fella! Also, seems you might be close to overtaking @mariner4life for the TSF Deviant award.
