If Chelsea fans are to be believed it does serve a purpose in the bedroom though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted December 20, 2020 I think I'm beginning to understand the people who got so angry about the Rashica thread. Come on here to read about all the Christmassy things and got 4 pages about fibrous frickin vegetables. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrible sour stuff, but at least it can be made almost palatable by drowning it in colossal quantities of sugar and custard. But the nasty bitterness of celery is beyond help. Good thing you don't live in the rhubarb triangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Just to add some balance to the thread, rhubarb is amazing and celery is perfectly acceptable to eat raw, with some primula or other such squeezy cheese. It’s also a must for a bolognese sauce, but it’s got to be softened as it’s no good crunchy. Anyway, merry Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mandy Lifeboats Posted December 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2020 Over the past few days I have amassed 20 of the free Panini Sticker Albums. Today I gave one to one of my Blue-Nose Colleagues. I enjoyed the look on his face when he realised it was made up of 20 sets of the Villa pages. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted December 22, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted December 22, 2020 Slightly tangent to the usual Christmas song chat, and acknowledging that we’re a fairly secular bunch on here....are there any favourite Christmas carols among VTers? Nothing out of the ordinary for me, the more upbeat ones mainly. Good King Wenceslas, 12 days of Christmas, God rest ye merry gentlemen, I saw three ships are the ones I can think of. I don’t exactly go out of my way to seek these out but if there’s Christmas music being played I’d rather hear these over, say, Macca simply...having....a wonderful Christmas time.

Yeah, despite my atheism, I do like a carol concert, pure childhood nostalgia - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, Ding Dong Merrily on High, In Dulce Jubilo, Angels From the Realms of Glory, O Come All Ye Faithful, Wenceslas, I Saw Three Ships, Silent Night, Deck the Halls, Joy to the World, We Three Kings... good tunes. Although around here they have a pernicious habit of singing While Shepherds Watched to the tune of On Ilkla Moor Baht 'At. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
