Whats everyone had for lunch today?

I had a large 5 piece Chicken Selects meal from Maccy D's and it was bloody lovely.  

 :D

Marmite on hedghog bread. Was lush. And i had a little brownie afterwards!!

I'm about to have bangers and mash, at home today so chiling out.

I'm looking forward to it!

I had a Chicken curry puff, a Roast pork puff and a Mushroom puff.

I didn't want to eat too much so as to make the most of my Indian curry tonight.

Hmmmmmmm.... Currryyy

I had to have a fucking burger because I was so monged this morning I forgot my lunch and forgot to get a sandwich from the sandwich man when he came around because I forgot I didn't have lunch  :(

Dominos, work buy it in every Friday except the 1st one of the month.

The first Friday in the month is chinese :)

Tuna & Sweetcorn baguette (on brown).

Chicken, lettuce, onion, cucumber and chilli sauce wholemeal baguette (no butter) and an apple.

7.5/10

Chicken caesar salad. Lovely.

I had that yesterday and Monday!

and 2 jumbo sausages!

my gay husband is off today - had to make me own lunch  :(

Ive just had a jacket potato with rather randomly spagetti in it - I had to use up what was left in the fridge - and Im kind of on a diet so fruit only for snacks today

Toast & marmite and a banana.

Just sent to office junior off to but the Friday McFlurrys.

Just sent the office junior off to buy the Friday McFlurrys.

Im so jealous of you lot - working in Bradford on Avon we have NOTHING - no takeways no Starbucks only one piddly little Sainsburys  :cry:

Cheese and crackers with tomato and veg soup.

Followed by a bottle of Lucozade Sport cos i'm just off down the gym.

The grub down the Barge Inn is pretty good if you get the chance to slope off for an hour.

Ham Sandwich, some crisps and a kit kat. Hardly the most exciting!

Indeed. Or the bunch of grapes.

Also a good indian in BoA.

And Sainsburys has just been extended. It's pretty good now.

For the record I had a panini with Ementhal, Salami and Salsa sauce followed by 2 apples and a banana.

I haven't had any lunch yet. I'm going to go make me some.

i'm eating a chicken chow mein from the takeaway...it's a bit rank

yeah Sainsburys is better now its extended but as BOA seems to be the place for old people to come to die getting round can be mighty frustrating!

I just asked my boss if he could get me a sachet of Options white chocolate drink whilst he was in there and he has brought me back a whole box full of sachets!! I think he got a little confused bless him!

Old people in supermarkets in the lunch hour is possible one of the most annoying things.  Driving at about 0.1 miles per hour and still not looking where they're going.

Should be banned! :old:

what is hedghog bread please?

i'm just about to take the last bite of my ploughmans; multiseed roll, meat counter (wiltshire, YUK!) ham, organic mature cheddar, branston small chunk and a bit of lettuce.

got an apple, pear and some rachel's organic greek style honey yogurt for desert.

also bagged 6 cans of IPA in the reduced section in sainsburys which i am bloody happy about. 50p each.

We have a subsidised Starbucks on site!

I had a pint of guiness, with the intention of grabbing a sarnie from our cafe downstairs. There's nothing left!

Meh thats fine, Guiness is liquid lunch anyway!

Jacket Potato with Chilli and Cheese

and a bag of Flaming Hot Monster Munch.   :D

I weant to that @Fusion chinese buffet place. It's horrible, I feel  really ill as well.

on Shaw ridge? - work take you to some nice places dont they Si!!

I thought that you were going to go back to the Hungry horse and see if they do Dirt and worms

I wonder if one could survive on Guinness alone, bearing in mind all of its nutritional qualities.

And to echo Oxford Fans question. What the fuck is hedgehog bread?

I also had a pint of Guinness at lunch, it was this place's only saving grace - £2 for a pint.

hehe damn right!

Hedgehog bread is basically bread that is baked with a rough surface (like a hedgehogs back) which is crispy.  Very nice indeed!

Footlong Subway melt, cup of tea and half a cookie.

I felt terrible before and am even worse now!  :(

Ah well, a good excuse to prematurely end my revision for the week  :D

Time for an afternoon snack - a toasted tea cake and a cup of tea! yummy

I had an hour, same as most other days

Hungry Horse meals are absolutely huge!

I couldn't finish the burger and chips so I shudder to think what the Megasaurus is like!

Naff all. Gastroenteritis is rubbish but I've lost eight pounds. Woot.  :|

We usually go to the Hungry Horse for lunch. At least you know what you're paying for.

It's all about the Big H burger though

I had half a baguette with some stilton in it, and a slice of chocolate cake.

I love 'bring random food to work cos it's someones birthday / leaving day' days.

yum I could live off bread and stilton

and guinness.

Ive only had guinness once - In the bar at the top of the Guiness store house - it made me a bit tipsy and I brought a handbag for £150 - I wont be drinking it again!

It was probably the altitude.

I had 4 pints up there, mainly because I went with three other people who don't like Guinness so I had all their free pints.

We watched the England V Ireland six nations in the storehouse  8)

and maybe the fact Im a lightweight!!  :soapy tit wank:

I have just finished my curry.

It was proper Indian but I think it was a bit made up. It was Madras-esque but milder and sweeter, the extra special bit was that the chicken was tandoori baked, even the sauce was a bit pink.

Fucking delicious. Indian currys are the best grub in the world IMO.

Oh, and the Pilau rice was top notch as well.

oh my god the champagne is openin the event exchange office!!

cheers  :beers:

I've stopped feeling sick, although Ryan did try and make me physically ill by putting 6 sugars in my coffee.

whos Ryan? is he hot?  :wink:

whos Ryan? is he hot?  :wink:

You'd like him because he's only 19 years old

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  lush - just over my lower limit!

I've been staring at Naomi's breasts all day  8)

For dinner.........

Belly Pork slices marinated with brown sugar, sherry, soy & worcester sauce, garlic, aniseed mix.

Pepper stir fry and egg fried rice.

it's not friday but today i have

green beans
rice
pine nuts
peppers
onion
garlic
soy sauce
brocolli
cumin
MACKREL!

mackre is bloody lovely!

I had a burger with bacon and cheese. Was lush.

I ate my godsons hula hoops

my a bad person  :cry:

I had a Chicken Burger with cheese and bacon in the pub washed down with Corona  :D

 :x  Not fair.

I had a bollocking from my gaffer for swearing at customers so haven't had anything yet.

It was a gorgeous burger on ciabatta with home made coleslaw too!

I can see why you'd like mackerel OF, it's a well known trivia question,

Which Football club's name contains none of the letters from the word 'mackerel' ?

it's also a well known answer around these parts!

Histon.  :D

Everyone loves a cheeseburger...

See?  And washed down with beer...a winning combination.

i organised and booked a meal for our department at work tomorrow, we're all off to a pub for lunch and the company are kindly paying 8)

i've ordered a twenty-one day aged aberdeen angus rib-eye steak...i'm drooling in anticipation already

Someone at work lost a bet and owes me a beer. There aren't many things better in the world than beer, but free beer is one of them.

I don't know what I'm having for lunch today  :(   Depends how long my glorious meeting drags on.

Junk is off the agenda today, I need to be good.  Chicken and Bacon salad sarnies from Tesco might work.

You better be having it cooked rare.  Best way to have it cooked!

I have a cheesy roll, with cheese in  :|

Its treat myself Friday ... but with it being half term .. Maccy D's is full of kids ...

Damn I wish i worked near a KFC  :-))(

Today I shall have a chicken & bacon panini. Yum yum.

what can I eat to stop my legs hurting?

Painkillers.

I was a bit naughty actually - my legs already hurt from my bums and tums class on Wednesday night but I just took some painkillers to get me through spinning last night - now I cant walk

I should have had a rest day

 Try some nettle soup or tea.....very beneficial.   This is aboiut the best time of year to pick and cook your netles, once they grow bigger, they get a bit stringy.

 Here are some of the things nettles are good for helping...hay fever, arthritis, excessive menstruation, haemorrhoids, rheumatism and anaemia.

Nothing, again. I'm celebrating my fourth week off work and still not being able to hold any food down. Yipee!

Reg if I pick Nettles I will get stung?? :?

 You only want the fresh tops, use gloves.

errrm where do I get nettles from in Bradford on Avon??

plus wont the tea sting my mouth when I drink it?

it sounds a bit scary to be honest will it actually help me?

 Round the back of the Tithe Barn is good.  No the tea doesn't sting.....TBF it probably wouldn't have an immediate impact, its not like a drug, more a tonic.

 I sometimes take a Thermos of water, when walking and bung the netttles in to infuse.

Is it cheating to drive to the thythe barn?

But I know what will happen I will go in the little nicky nacky gifty shop there and spend money and come back with no nettles but some lovely gifts!

maybe I could send my gay husband down?

fucking hell, that sounds nasty. :|

 Nah, cheating is getting nettle tea bags from Holland and Barrett.

 Its an interesting question as to whether gathering form the hedgerows, would have been traditionally men or women's work.  I suspect it may have been men's work....so send the old man.

he wont go! bloody gays so tempremental! he had better make my lunch today - bitch!  :x

Chicken, lettuce, onion cucumber in a wholemeal baguette with a sauce of my own creation (chilli and salad cream).

Washed down with a litre of water and an apple.

7.5/10

gammon steak,two eggs,chips and peas.

I'm glad you clarified your own sauce bit!

I had a ham salad baguette (wholemeal), a banana and the Friday McFlurry is on its way. And a red Oasis.

Gay husband got his act together and made lunch

Special tuna mayo (Tuna, Mayo,sweetcorn,Tabasco,Gratedcheese) in a wholemeal pitta

twas nice

chicken and mushroom pie with peas and onion rings. not bad.

I once went to a wedding at that tithe barn, very warm day and it was sweltering inside. and i was very drunk because we got there too early and didn't eat until very late.

 You didn't feel the vibe of the oppressed peasantry having to give up a tenth of their produce...to maintain a a corrupt feudal system then?

  St Laurence's church is an interesting place.

You swore at cutomers?... Ace, please elaborate.

er nope. but there was morris dancing outside afterwards. and champagne.

Im so glad everyone has such lovelys memories of Bradford

it was a nice village but looked a bit dull for an under 40 to live in.

As simple as it sounds really.

Some woman kept missing the point of why her account had been suspended (i.e. she owes circa £3k) and told me she'd pay a letter fee of £35 on another debit card. I asked her if she wanted me to clear the other £2965 while we were at it - a bit cheeky I admit - she said "why are you always so fucking difficult?" to which I retorted "to maintain parity with our fucking customers madam."

bet you enjoyed it too!

where do you work Dave?

 :D  :D  :D

Good work mate, did your boss keep a straight face throughout the bollocking?

 I've always been intrigued by the Blind House, which apparently started out as a chapel, but later was used for throwing driunks  into whilst they slept it off.

  Many years ago I read a book by Guy Underwood, which was about dowsing......he was a dowser and developed a theory that many ancient sites, came to be where they were, because of an underground earth force, which suggested a place of significance.  His idea is a bit like feng shui.

  He did much of his research in our part of England.  Combining as it did landscape and neolithic archaeology, two of my passions,  I attempted to teach myself dowsing, with no noticeable success.

   He expanded teh theory, to include medieval church architecture, arguing that masons,  knew of the earth force and pitched cathedrals and churches etc  accordingly.

   So according to Underwood the Blind House was built where it was, came about as a response to underlying earth forces.

  There's a bit more to it than just this....he felt plants and animals could respond to the force, more so than us, although we're capable, we need to learn.  I haven't as yet.

I have no idea where the blind house is???

maybe you belong there then?

I only work here - not live - so there

If I was could I wear cool Stevie Wonder glasses?  8)

you can even if you're not!

 http://www.bbc.co.uk/wiltshire/content/images/2005/09/09/open_heritage_b_150_150x180.jpg

Hence the expression "Blind Drunk" ?

Could this be why animals can sense impending natural events such as earthquakes ?

As its that day again whats on everyones menu?

Think Im going with the slightly boring Chicken and Bacon Sandwiches from Tesco with a huge pot of tropical fruit salad.

I think we're going to the Village, so I'll probably grab a burger or the like.

What ever gay face decides to make me!

we have removal men in so all the gays have dissapeared

Why did they remove the gays? Are they homophobes?

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

ha ha I wish - for some reason they are delivering a load of stuff like coffee tables - cause we really need some more crap in this office - Not!!  :-))(

Dare I point out that technically they're not removal men then ?

I have a salad with egg and ham.

I've just done a huge shop, my cupboards and fridge are now bursting. I got some nice oatey bagels, might have that for lunch with crean cheese, rocket, spinach, watercress and chillies.

Cream cheese and chillies is somewhat of a clash?

it works, trust me.

I would try, but cream cheese makes me yak.

Frankly anyone who can stomach cream cheese is a woman or a poofter  :D

Naah the creamy and the hot always combine well. See brie and salami for further details.

you don't know what you're missing out on.

where's the meat?

wack some salami or parma ham in there and we're talking.

i forgot to mention the salami and pepperoni, got about 4 different kinds.

Fuck knows what I'm having for lunch. I had delicious death burgers yesterday though.

I'm thinking Bacon and Brie in some sort of delicious vehicle of delight.

i need to obtain a vehicle of delight for my ham, cheese and coleslaw combo. might pop to 'the terrace', the business park restaurant, now - i'm hank marvin.

we had cheesey baps with tuna/sweetcorn/grated cheese mixed with sour cream rather than mayo - twas nice - then we watched switched on E4

Due to a bout of Colitis........................................FUCK ALL AGAIN

6 TFC hot wings, packet of Branigans Beef and Mustard crisps, and a muller yoghurt.

Tennesee?

oooh did you get your gift of crisps Axs's?

No mate

Texan

yes, but they weren't beef and mustard ones  :|

I could pop to Le garagé next door?

and then deliver them to me?

You know in French that's slang for a Brothel?

really??? oh! I like pretend I speak French by throwing in random phrases but half the time I would imagine they are incorrect

zut alors!

How do you know that Ben?

I didn't, I just made it up.

Could be true though.

According to the web a brothel is 'maison close' in french   :?

avec les jambres ouvre

with the something open?

oops i added a r in jambes by mistake.

If my making something up has caused you to google "brothel in french" at work my job is done.

ben's day is now fulfilled.

 :D  :oops:

Time for a cup of tea before a sexy lunch I think. I've earned it.

I had a cheese sarnie, cup of tea followed by 2 big bananas for energy cos I just went on a 5 mile jog.

white bread for lunch has made me feel like a big lethargic lump
might as well start on some tea and the gold bars in the fridge seeing as my anorexia has failed

A packet of McCoys and an apple due to spending most of my lunch in B&Q.

My lunch was a footlong Subway and cookie  :D

Is this some swindon rip off of KFC? we got one in croydon who has exactly copied the logo but put PFC on there, and instead of the colnel some big hench black rasta..

It could be Tennesee Fried Chicken

I already said that.

It's an internet forum, I couldn't hear you (or be bothered to read back any pages whatsoever).

I forgive you.

thank you.  I do quite fancy some greasy as fuck chicken now though.

I just had another one of the bagels that I described earlier. and I've opened a nice bordeaux.

I going to see if my mum will buy me some white ace.

i've got some red if you wanna pop over, we're gonna have a game of poker when my little bro gets back.

Oooh I might take you up on that. I'm going to be sensible though. I've got to get up tomorrow.

I'm having some Fosters Scuba.  It's like Fosters, in fact it's the same, but it's got way better marketing, thus meaning it is clearly worth the extra spend...........might have to dig out the Brandy in a bit.

me too, it won't be a late one.

i saw that in tesco's today, said it had smaller bubbles or something in it which gave it a smoother taste of some bollocks.

I can verify it does not taste of some bollocks, or at least I'm guessing it doesn't.  Can any women or resident bollock lickers advise?

Ace. I'll pop round in a min.

im having jerk chicken and rice and peas from aforementioned PFC

 :D  I may have meant 'or'.

Ive just had porridge with honey..and about to get some toast and thick cut marmalade.....for brekky that is!
