      So, my question (yes, I know, I'm dumb) three thirds isn't a whole - so where does the other bit go

      If you know what I'm wittering on about, stand up and take a bow, if not, smile sweetly when you walk passed me
      Excellent news piskie!

        not necessarily so Wayne.

        Even we Irish folk can do simple maths.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

            Easy Maths.....

            Buy a cake that's freezable. Cut it into thirds, eat one third, freeze the remaining two. In another's third's time defrost & eat another piece. At the end of the last third, defrost the last piece and save it for Snow Drop!

                That's a really lovely idea!

                  it is - except I don't really like/eat cake* - Snowdrop, however, eats cake for England or he would if I baked

                  *does not include blueberry and white choc cheesecake

                        Guess it really does'nt matter, so long as WE all can do the maths and Snowdrop returns ASAP.

                        And when your back stops aching,
                        And your hands begin to harden.

                            tomorrow night I am 1/3 of the way - yaaaaaaay

                            He tells me he is missing me hugely but is having a 'good' time!!

                            To be fair, it is what he is trained to do and for most servicemen, sitting 'at home' playing Cap't Mainwaring (don't tell him your name Pike) is not good for them - they have to go out to theatre (and we're not taking Les Misérables here) to remember what it is they signed a pledge for to do

                              Why does this thread remind me of my Uncle and his favourite poem...

                              One bright morning in the middle of the night
                              Two dead men got up to fight
                              Back to back they faced each other
                              Drew their swords and shot each other



                              The proof of the growing is in the eating.
                              Leave Rotten Fruit.
                              Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potasium - potash.
                              Autant de têtes, autant d'avis!!!!!
                              Il n'est si méchant pot qui ne trouve son couvercle.

                                I do maths quite well, really , but for evermore I will be counting thirds in cauliflowers.

                                Even I understand that, and on an intellectual level what that entails. On an emotional level, tho' - well, hugs to that girl - respect to that man.
