Pete's back to sort out your problems

Postby motoman » Tue Apr 07, 2009 10:37 am

Six months away and you seem to have fallen apart without my sage advice............. Just a few gentle observations to bring you back on track.

Some of you are Dexter fans. What a bunch of sick, moronic losers. It's good to be back with my friends.

Cornflakes in the grinder. It is a drinking problem, drink more and you will never know the difference.

Grinding a home roast. The finer you grind it the more you can charge the carbon paper makers.

Wok roasting. Not a good idea as you will want another five minutes later.

Somerfield sells Starbucks coffee. Thank god for Sainsbury's.

Please do not reply telling me my remarks are totally pointless, I don't care.

It's good to be green.

Pete man... you really gotta get up to speed. The thing to do nowadays is to buy cornflakes from Somerfield, then soak cornflakes in blood, then roast it dry in a wok, then grind it super fine, dump the grinds over carbon copy paper, and pour body-temp blood over it. Of course, you should use really fresh blood or it just won't be half as good. Anything else would just be pointless :roll: :shock:

Pete! Thank Herman your back! We have fallen apart without your sage advice.

I presume you mean that being green is good if you're a bean. Better than being a corn flake, in any case.

Oh yes, and: Image

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!

Things will get better too:

I plan to teach Steve that roasting beans without two veg and gravy is a big mistake.

The secret of how Tisri reaches 5th crack is close to breaking.

Scrapping most of Cakey's kit would solve the world shortage of metals.

Beanie worries me, can someone ensure he goes on a strict vegitarian diet.



There are only three rules for making perfect coffee, unfortunately no one knows them.

Oxprissamutec lives in the Land of Zee, famed for it's vowel transposition. I can offer a translation service.

What is wrong with this place? a poor innocent elderly gentleman makes a little typo error and gets life threatening treatment from a bully. As you all know, I am an easy going person with nothing but respect for his fellow man (and the wo.... version). How is it possible to be rude to someone who wears a beanie cap with a propeller spinning on the top of her head. Lay one finger on me Leech and the 'Help the Aged hit squad' will be round to ensure you never get a pension.

I must warn you that I am a master of Tai Chai, the ancient art of throwing used tea bags and stirring it.

It'll take 'em a while to get there though, the bus doesn't stop where it used to... and there's never any space for their zimmer frames when they get on... :roll:

Welcome back Pete :D
This week, I are mainly juggling too many balls...

Far too much kit!!

That's OK, I know how to deal with the hit squad, give them a nice cuppa and a muffin and they're like putty in your hands! 8) :lol:
