ArtistsRifles Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 David - depending on a couple of issues like money and whether I have a job or not - I will try to get down to give you a hand full time in the cook house. Right now funds have been stretched beyond breaking.... :embarrassed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddy8men Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 i'll do my bit on the the pan bashing, just don't ask me to cook and please keep the food covered at night time ! i had a couple of mates who broke into the cookhouse one night looking for a midnight feast, which they found but they also had the bright idea of peeing in the large pan of beans that the chefs had left out ready for the morning. when we were all at breakfast the next day they laughed all the way through it until we'd finished and that was when they told us :undecided: a belting prank, i could tell you of a few more but the mods would delete them. anyway please keep the beans out of sight rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
