I left, went to U.S, ate some fried chicken that was served between two doughnuts as part of the breakfast menu in a diner in Georgia, realised my trip would never get better than that and so came home.
Missed this place so much might actually start posting gags again.
How are you all, you crazy diamonds? Has the deeply funny Dark Bill revealed themselves yet?

Yes it could. I came across double deep fried chicken at at truck stop in Texas at 3am. It looked like a way to get your lifetime supply of colesterol in one shot. The place also had the worst smelling toilets outside of a Bangkok railway station with more p*ss on the floor than a bog in a rural UK pub in the '80s, and that's going some. Quite a scary lack of aim from guys who were driving 40 tonne trucks in the dark.

Oh God biscuits, they are so freaking moreish. I wish we had them over here. No it was proper normally-has-jam-or-maple-syrup-or-a-hole in them doughnuts. God Bless America.
Not taking the piss there, I love that the food is so balls-out mad and there's none of that 'oh I musn't, ooh I'm being naughty' kind of thing that happens over here.
Also love the lack of health and safety. Went to a village with a train track running through it, lots of trains used it too, and there were no fences or signs or anything, you were simply trusted not to wander on to the tracks. The U.K could do with a bit more trust and a bit less safety I reckon.

Pancakes ... mmmm .... biscuits n gravy ... mmmm ... donuts ...MMMM ...
I was a size 10 (that's an 8 USA for you, Rikkor) before I lived in the States. Mind you, having two kids while I was there might not have helped with the lard-gain.
Great to see you back, Shitsu.
Bill's vanished again. All we get are hints and swirly mist - I think someone bought a cheap vat of dry ice.

What an image, Mr Hack.
I'm off today at long last, after what seems like weeks of almost full-time (covering for hols and swine flu). Unfortunately my co-manager has just resigned (she survived my humour for almost 2 years; can't complain. Though she does. Frequently.) so likely full time for a while once she departs in May. Meh.
36", 31" ... I doubt it* but will check next week, hon.
*One of the joys of charity shop work is receiving bundles of men's tousers: most are only fit for the rag bag. If a pair make it past an external examination (obvious dirt, fraying, missing button, broken zip) they generally fail a brave internal glance: stained gusset (due to the masculine dribbly willy tendancy).
Anyway, in our shop, only the pristine make it out onto the rail.
