COLD DARK ROOM

[ZEROPILOT]

Good morning John!
So, apparently, you haven't tasted REAL Burger King?
You'll have to come to the 'States for some, then?

Omg! You had me fooled! Thought it was a vinyl! Was just thinking about bunch of my old favorites (LP's) that I had brought with me from my Old Country back in 1989.... Just couldn't part with them. They are boxed up somewhere up on the attic. I wonder if they are still any good after all those years of being stored in our summer heat... I love that look of your cd!

(@ZEROPILOT) Yes you're right! There are differences. There is often different menu items based on the country. While we get a limited time BBQ type sandwich, other places will have a limited time Fish offering. Last time I was overseas McDonalds even offered a limited time "Doner" (super yummy greek type food). Food will taste slightly different, because there will be slightly different seasonings and particularly dressings used. Many restaurants in Europe will be heavier on Mustard vs Ketchup and there is no such thing as Ranch Dressing in most places. Food is even served a tiny bit differently. For example, growing up in Germany they would give you these tiny kind of finger forks for your fries because Germans were accustomed to eating big yummy fries called Pommes Frites where you would often use a fork. Now, because fast food has invaded everywhere Pommes as well as Chips in the UK are often more like lame fast food French fries. -They are so disappointing in most restaurants now!! Also, when you eat in the fast food restaurant vs drive through, most fast food places in Europe hand you your drink open without a lid and straw. Europeans are far less wasteful than us garbage factories.

I'm glad you said 'doner' not 'donor' - I aways wondered what they put in those burgers!

No Burger king today. I ate two mummified cheese burgers from Wendys. I think they were made in advance for the lunch crowd. Not great.

coffee and bacon for this chap!

So... Are shirt and tie and polished shoes the norm for a football match? I'm afraid I didn't catch the names you dropped so I'ma leave them there for someone else to pick up. Looks like a grand time though!

Oh yes our football matches are very formal affairs!!
We have the best dressed supporters in the world!

I'm going to name my three yet un named tortoises. The male is now Romeo,(Formerly known as #1) but that leaves two females.(Now numbers 2 and 3)
Any ideas? They are unquestionably females.
