Our last bastion of decency and manners has now finally aquiesced. This is a sad day George...the question is though, you say it in the present tense. Is there something about your attire you are not telling us (We know about your bladder issues) or maybe Mrs George (Not that you let her out of the cupboard of course).

My keen analytical brain has studied this problem and I have a few possible solutions to your eating and storage habits.

Steve! Stop eating crisps as you roast.

Jim! Store your beans in a separate container from the bacon.

Darren! Don't drink Jim's coffee.

Jason! Check the label, you may be using instant coffee instead of gravy granules.

Tristan! Stop smelling the grounds, just throw them away.

Bruce! Who do we start on next????????

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

I am saddened, that a mere observation, made with the sole intention of increasing the sadly depleted pool of knowledge in this forum, should be met with insinuations that I am some sort of pervert. Let me assure you that this comes from memories of my school-days, when such things were the norm at least for the girls), along with tackety boots, short trousers, scabby knees, and the obligatory boils on the back of the neck. A time during or just after the war, when you hesitated when a girl offered you a boiled sweet in the playground, as it was customary to utilise these commodious undergarments to store such rare treats.
Ah yes.....happy days. We will not see their like again. 8)
