    Put money in them now and some bugger would sue you if they damaged a tooth, or were traumatised by finding a foreign object in their food!

    We've not made puds this year ... we'll be having roast beef with Yorkshire puddings so a heavy pud seemed just a step too far this year ... but when we do make them we put silver threepenny bits inherited from my Gt Gt Grandmother inside them.  No fear from litigation from my family ... they know that finding a coin in their pudding will bring them 12 months of unparalleled good fortune ... why would you sue?

    The “venting” still worries me though. Is that a modern word for burping?

    Actually it's a method used by fish-keepers for sexing their fish  :blush:

    I love these conversations. I just pray that I'm not drinking tea when I read them.

    OH has been granted a Blue Badge, much to our astonishment. Hopefully it will make parking slightly easier for us. I'd better read up on the rules.
