Yeah, my subconscious told me that "FBI" was wrong.

I start Monday.
I retired from my 32 year government job EIGHT years ago (UNISYS mainframe systems support).

I haven't worked since and finally have time for myself.

I too was in a government job and my friends and relatives suggested, therefore, I never worked then either.

I like to say I've never done a day's work in my life.

I prefer to call it play!

Another happy meal is now under construction.

This one is a chilli con coction. Ingredients include a large yellow scotch bonnet, a moderately sized red scotch bonnet and a green jalapeño.

Full recipe on request.


Actually, perhaps we should have a cookery thread.
