TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Also, search for "Iain M Banks" as author in Abe Books - generally around £3.35 per book. 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Oh yes, just the first one that leaped to mind, having seen him again a couple of weeks ago. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Oh yes. The Waterboys and Steve Earle are playing it live on the current "Fisherman's Blues Revue" tour. 010

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Vinegar in a little bowl, add a tomato half, cover with clingfilm, punch holes in the clingfilm so the flies can scent their way in (and can't then get out). 010

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 19/09/2026We were wondering, too, and my wife's superior googling skills found the answer: kerryhillsheepsociety.comkerryhillsheepsociety.comKerry Hill Sheep Society – kerryhillsheepsociety.com 241
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 04/09/2026That will have to wait until the former guy is again the former guy, and his associates are not in power. I'd love to try it, though, and loved the New York coal-fired pizzas when we were there. This is one from our Edinburgh local wood-fired old-school restaurant, The Jolly. 220

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Bought four of the same after having them in a bar. Found the brand on the underside. "Libby" brand, in our case: toughened glass, absolutely solid and haven't chipped so far (8? years in use...) 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I once had this conversation on a broiling hot day in Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, on a shuttle bus. The lack of a blackboard / whiteboard didn't help. 020
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Here's a history of them. buttondown.com/theswordandt... And my Dad lived near Bassenthwaite Lake for over 30 years, so you have my sympathy on that one.buttondown.comNotable Sandwiches #130: PaniniWelcome back to Notable Sandwiches, the feature where my intrepid editor David Swanson and I take our seats at the big strange table that is Wikipedia’s List... 030
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Well, I hope they turn up for you. Our local deli has a revolving selection, so we grab what we can when we can. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 13/08/2026There is also a hot mustard version, which I think just edges the Honey and Mustard as the best crisp EVER. 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Daisies, from Fife in Scotland. She lives with her sister, Mabel (seal and cream point) and Hamish, the seal point. 280
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 07/08/2026That sequence - Terrapin > Estimated Prophet > EOTW > NFA > GDTRFB > Around and Around, then Uncle John's Band, has been one of my absolute favourite Dead live sequences for the last 15+ years (I got a SBD download ages before the Dave's Pick, though I have that too). It's Just Exactly Perfect. 120
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Where do you start from? Not joking, just some point of reference so not as to go wrong. Also, Grateful Dead ;-) 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Thank you - Kashmiri chilli powder is a stock item for Felicity Cloake's Vindaloo. I shall experiment accordingly. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Looks good enough to ask for the recipe... ... and "slightly hotter than intended" should be the default. 111
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Indeed! I recognised the tartan upholstery, and the gilded windows. 010

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 29/07/2026There are several very good second hand bookshops on the West Port, a short walk from the castle. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I know it's a webpage. Nonetheless, the BBC are still promoting the press, and the right wing press at that. 000
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 06/07/2026I beg to differ: this is a link to today's Scottish newspapers review. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...bbc.co.ukScotland's papers: Ambulance delays and Yes group 'missing £1.5m' probeA review of the front page stories from the daily newspapers in Scotland. 100
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Well, we're not on a standard RM route, so we get whoever's left at the end of the shift, and quite often get mail that's not for us (and our neighbours get the same). And we also have the delivery problem that they won't use the door bell or the knocker, they just tap gently so we don't hear them. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Same. And that's the second rebrand - Home Delivery Network / HDNL in 2010 - though I had to look that up. All delivery companies are awful - though DPD have a couple of delivery drivers who actually know their routes. Though if we don't get them, we don't get deliveries from DPD either. 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 24/06/2026I have seen that graphic before - in Phoenix, Arizona. Presumably taken over by the woke, too. (The temperature was over 100F every day that we were there, and dropped to about 85F at night). It's a useful graphic, and worth remembering, as it might save a life. 130
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 24/06/2026The end-to-end Water of Leith walk - from Balerno to Leith, downhill is much easier - makes for a delightful day. 010
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Maybe wait to find out one way or another before jumping in with both feet? 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I don't know if he does, but I do. Do you think I should be looked up, just in case? 110
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 17/06/2026We have one of his in our kitchen! A little bit of the bay in Scotland. 000
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Also Happy Birthday. I love the "Chez Panisse" picture. 210

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Best days out that we did in a week, apart from the obvious (Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza) were the historical buildings at City Park www.dallasparks.org/684/City-Park , the Art Deco Pavilions at Fair Park www.fairparkdallas.com (plus Four Corners Brewery) and our day trip to Fort Worth.dallasparks.orgCity Park | Dallas Parks, TX - Official WebsiteDallas' first park, established in 1876.

TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 15/06/2026I do hope that you end up in "The Londoner Pub" near SMU / Mockingbird on Blue / Orange / Red, because we looked at it and didn't do it. It seemed a little much when we were trying to find Texas things rather than London! 200
TwaJokers @twajokers.bsky.social · 15/06/2026You should do the TRE line just because it's fun (we did it in 2023, though we did not get off and buy pints at intermediate stations, because...) 100
