We were looking for a multimeter at work the other day. No fruit at the
time but have since stumbled on it.

We've a new 'tidy' member of staff who because it had been left out had
put it in a drawer with some other completely unrelated items, somewhere
you'd never have thought to look.

It reminded me of when my tidy sister came to stay at my house some
years ago and the phone got cut off.
Thinking i'd no outstanding bills and certainly no reminder, a penny
dropped that i'd not seen any mail for a while so I enquired.
She'd been putting my mail under the stairs unhappy with the way I
didn't immediately deal with it.

I can't decide if we should all be be tidy, communicate better or just
leave each other's **** alone.

Totally agree. SWAMBO has a habit of putting things in so called €œsafe places€� then promptly forgets where they are resulting in hours spent looking for them only to find them weeks later in a totally unrelated place.

I'd go with the latter and it's a plan that generally works well here
[1]. ;-)

A non technical mate was asking me for help on some compressor hose /
connections and I asked him for a close-up picture of the fitting(s)
and some measurements with the vernier caliper I'd suggested he get a
while back and I'd see if I could help him sort something out.

It turns out the vernier had been 'Put away' in his lockup several
miles away, in spite of him having a massive empty house and
proportionally large and mostly empty (brick built) 'shed' with an
empty toolbox?

Wouldn't that sort of thing be in a 'man' / bits draw somewhere, if
not in a workshop? I have one in nearly every room (and the workshop),
that way I can always find one. ;-)

Cheers, T i m

[1] The Mrs wouldn't know what half of my stuff is / does so doesn't
even try to 'tidy it up'. Plus, why should she? ;-)

Oh, they all do that ;-)

I leave my own paperwork and letters out, until it has been completely
dealt with - that is my glue to deal with it, once it has been dealt
with it is filed, or destroyed.

What 'choices' are you giving the animals then?

With tidying up, rarely does someone have to suffer or die.

You really are desperate trying to justify your desire to cause

Crazy. I'll tip the remains of the tea out of a mug, fill it with
water from the cold tap and drink it. I guess this is why those sorts
of people don't go camping but demand a mint on their pillow.

It may not be just chance that brought my Mrs and I together as I
don't have to deal with any of that. She's certainly not 'SWMBO' and
the arrangement is mutual.

But I agree, I think it's sad we have gone from having homes where we
would do most things, inc service the motorbike in the kitchen if
required and now seem to be as obsessed with the 'demeriting' (or fear
thereof) from someone who isn't even connected or have any real status
over you.

If the Mrs couldn't get to the kitchen because I was working on
something in there (like a cycle, motorbike engine or the washing
machine), all she would ask is that I did the cooking for fear of her
moving or disturbing something. There is a good reason she's so
supportive, it could be her cycle or motorbike engine I'm working on.

Totally agree. SWAMBO has a habit of putting things in so called €œsafe places€� then promptly forgets where they are resulting in hours spent looking for them only to find them weeks later in a totally unrelated place.

The solution to that is to designate a couple of specific locations as
the safe places and put things there instead of random places that seem
sensible at the time. For small items we designated a ceramic kitchen
pot with a lid (about 8" diameter and 12" tall and standing on the
kitchen worktop) and literally referred to that as "A Safe Place".

As a blind person let me say that one has to be tidy ones self, but not
allow any others to use their form of tidy in your house as that means you
will never find anything whatsoever. One would think if we all share the

You picked a good one.

"Zebra steak is one of the leanest meats you can buy. With an
average 0.5g of fat per 100g, there are few meats that can
compete with that. Add high levels of protein, zinc, iron,
vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids and you have the holy grail
of nutrition right there. Red meat full of protein and the extras
that help use that protein in your body."

"It tastes a little sweet and a little gamey.
It is difficult to describe while doing it justice."

They don't mention what kind of steak sauce to use.

You picked a good one.

They don't mention what kind of steak sauce to use.

What 'choices' are you giving the animals then?

With tidying up, rarely does someone have to suffer or die.

You really are desperate trying to justify your desire to cause
suffering, exploitation and death towards innocent creatures aren't
you?


So you want the entire world animal population of cows, sheep,
pigs, ducks, geese and hens to be culled then ?. If you don't,
who will pay to feed them and look after them, the EU ?.

You *really* are a stupid troll aren't you?

"Zebra steak is one of the leanest meats you can buy. With an average
0.5g of fat per 100g, there are few meats that can compete with that.

But its the fat that gives a good steak its taste.

Add high levels of protein, zinc, iron, vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty
acids and you have the holy grail of nutrition right there.

Pity about the lack of taste.

Red meat full of protein and the extras
that help use that protein in your body."

And stops you going barking mad like D I M

Only barbarians use steak sauce.

(things you can get without causing pain and suffering to an animal).

Pity about the lack of taste.

1) Most things are said to taste like chicken (which is pretty bland).

2) Many people put plants or spices (Esp Col Sanders) on their meat to
make it taste 'nice'.

3) Or you burn the meat and make it carcinogenic.

4) Or you don't heat (or store) meat properly and it gives you food
poisoning.

5) You don't wash your hands or food surfaces properly after handling
raw meat and it gives you food poisoning.

6) Few would eat meat if they had to kill it themselves. This is
because it's 'out of sight, out of mind' (often in a window less
building in the middle of nowhere) and years of conditioning and not
aligning their actions with their morals. They provide safe passage
for a hedgehog but then eat a rabbit (unless you are Tyson Fury).

7) You protect a cat or dog with your life but take the life of a lamb
just to eat it's flesh.

Only by fools with stuff like steak, roast lamb, roast pork, roast beef etc
etc etc.

Of course, through improvements in animal welfare. But you won't support
or endorse these campaigns.

1) Most things are said to taste like chicken (which is pretty bland).

And can only be claimed by fanatical vegans or those who have lost their
taste. I expect you would say white wine has no taste too.

2) Many people put plants or spices (Esp Col Sanders) on their meat to
make it taste 'nice'.

Of course variety is the spice of life. I rather like the taste of roast
chicken too.

3) Or you burn the meat and make it carcinogenic.

I would have thought you would mention processed meats ahead of burnt meat.

4) Or you don't heat (or store) meat properly and it gives you food
poisoning.

Storage issues also apply to plant foods. I am happier with frozen
chicken as the freezing process generally kills campylobacter.

I hope you cook your veggies you eat to reduce the risk of e-coli.

5) You don't wash your hands or food surfaces properly after handling
raw meat and it gives you food poisoning.

Even children in class are told to wash hand while preparing meat. It is
a well know procedure, a bit like being taught to look right and left
before crossing a read.

because it's 'out of sight, out of mind' (often in a window less
building in the middle of nowhere) and years of conditioning and not

I was happy to gut and eat fish. In the UK slaughter must be carried
under strict conditions. So unlikely for most people would ever get the
opportunity.

7) You protect a cat or dog with your life but take the life of a lamb
just to eat it's flesh.

Generally if there is a choice between either a dog owner or the dog
surviving, only a fanatic on a crusade would put the dog before him.

One can only assume that the fanatic doesn't value his own live, or
think it's worth living from not being allowed to eat meat.

Oh the irony of your pic. The context is most important and the
circumstances of the quote as that Voltaire was responding to the
subject of beating dogs.

Given you admit to not care about the welfare of animals while they are
alive the pic shows your desperation to try and stop us eating meat as
part of a healthy balanced diet.

You're failing badly in your quest.

It's a simple question. How many cows, sheep, pigs, geese would exist in
say the UK if everyone was a fanatic vegan?

It didn't take long before you resorted to personal abuse. Doing that is
always a sign that you know you've lost the argument.
