Scientific question

[Evadne]

The moral, young Ken:

The moral of the story is not to adulterate the purity of your diet with such solids.
If you must include cherries in your diet, and it sounds a dubious practice to me, even if you're putting them into your gin, then buy the stoned variety. The only thing that should be put into gin is more gin.
Far better, stick to the liquid diet of the saints of the Highlands, pure malt, and leave such namby-pamby southern ways to those who know no better. If you do feel in need of alternate sustenance, there's nothing better than a deep-fried pizza with mars bar topping, IMHO, although I'll admit they are not easily found south of Winchester.

Re: Venue

Given that we cannot apparently use food afloat in a duelling situation unless outwith 'territorial waters' we may need to revert to a land-based contest where it seems there is no regulation regarding the disposal of food waste, not judging by the number of regurgitated Col. Saunders suppers found in the gutters on a Sunday morning. In which case an entirely suitable contest might be cherry stone squeezing (loser to eat a green/black olive as penance?)

However the calendar has a part to play here. Like you I'm sure, I'm reluctant to lose any sailing time in what's left of the season, especially over the colour of olives and the nature of those who eat them. And if we wait until winter, cherries will no longer be available from our friendly local greengrocer, the good Mr. T.E.Sco.

A case for experimention

Apart from the Cherry Preserve lifejacket, I believe the good Mr White has hit upon another promising product idea. He counsels me to put nothing in my gin, but more gin. I respond that I have on ocassion and with some success put both damsons and sloes in my gin, though not in the same bottle. I certainly wouldn't follow the Scottish precedent of immersing a deep fried Mars Bar in gin.

Cherry Gin does sound beguiling, although Cherrygin sounds more like a Russian politician.

Re: A case for experimention

Apparently if olive oil is used for deep frying the mars bars there is a positive health benefit. Have'nt tried it with cherry oil though .. The deep fried cauliflower in batter is a particular scots delicacy aka pakora

Re: A case for experimention

It's best to keep the Scots away from the chou-fleur, and vice-versa, whether battered or in gin. Sloe gin is another matter, although I've not tried damsel gin. It sounds promising. What sort of damsel do you use and how long do you have to soak her for until she's done?
I have to confess I'm beginning to forget what the original question was, it must be time to go home.

Re: A case for experimention

During the Burma campaign, a young MO radioed back to his HQ.

"I've got a case of beri beri, what should I do"

Over the airwaves crackled back the reply from the Surgeon General.

"Give it to the Scots, they'll drink anything."

Re: Venue

Do you not think it possible that Mr. T.E. Sco, or even Mr. W.A. Itrose, may be able to supply said Cherries at a normally out of season time, due to their amazing purchasing power & ability to manipulate the earthly seasons by magic.

I must admit that I have never succumbed to Deep Fried Mars Bar Pizza, but there again I am a Southern Jessie & live on a similar Latitude to Winchester, but i'll give it a try if you will.

Seems to me that a projectile vomitting match may be called for after imbibing the Pizza.

"... an expert with the Olive Stone squeezed between forefinger & thumb..."

I am curious. Here's a picture of said Olive Stone <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.geocities.com/sg_russell/olive.htm>http://www.geocities.com/sg_russell/olive.htm</A> - now please explain how you intend to use her as a leathal weapon squeezed between forefinger and thumb.

Re: Bigmartial arts

As I said "I am an expert in this field". but it should be obvious to anyone that the application of the Thumb & Forefinger to the right area of said "Olive Stone's" anatomony will instantly turn her into a lethal weapon that would rival Mel Gibson & Danny Glover combined. The only remaining problem is to direct the force, at the right target, being an expert, I would summon all my skill, I would tell her that Twister Ken told me to do it. & run like hell. Hence the use of a small yacht 12 Miles offshore is not an ideal situation to practise this skill.

I hope this is sufficiently clear for you.

See my dust

If you're intending to use Oliver Stone's granny in this contest, I'm heading for the hills and not leaving a forwarding address.

Re: See my dust

Being a Green Olive eating bounder, I'll use anybody's Granny & other means fair or foul to win.

Re: ha!

I admit nothing.

My comments were taken out of context.

This was the result of inexact reporting from the BBC.

I did not have sexual relations with that Olive.
