shiver me timbers to be put about
 

I read I hope all the threads available on this subject here "thank you all". With wild anticipation of new found cure to sooth this itch.I have yet to run this navigation mod with the sextant and hope it does not make more sense influenced by scurvy. Thank you again to my new friends and for your time and effort to help poor me.

For my thanks my favorite recipe for Plum Duff

(Serves 8)
4 pounds plain flour
2 pounds grated pork fat
1 cup sugar
1¾ pints (UK), 2 pints (US) water
1½ cups raisins or currants
1 cup molasses
Prefer fresh plums or soaked dried plums in rum ad to fit yer dersire
and if available a wee bit o Cinnamon
Mix all the ingredients together and knead thoroughly (adding extra water if necessary) to make a stiff dough. Divide dough into eight
portions, tie each snugly in a floured pudding bag or cloth, steam for
1 hour and serve with custard. For Double-shotted duff, double the 'plums'.

Enjoy Capt. Plank

That's 2 grillings, anyone else want to tell me about my literacy?

Lol. I'm a big stickler for correct usage, but not for spelling (typos are easy to make). I especially object when people mistake "your", and "you're". And I got caught doing the same thing myself just a week or two ago, so I got what was coming to me, but I keep on doing it. :oops: :damn:
:rotfl2:

On the other hand, I usually only react to people using a completely wrong word, as was done here. One you'll always see me jump at is "per say" (which should be "per se", which is Latin for "by itself".) :sunny:

I was taught at school never to start a sentence with "and"

I was taught never to end a sentence with a preposition... but that is arrant pedantry, up with which I shall not put. :smug: :O:

Very good. I usually begin a follow-on sentence with "That said, ..." but sometimes, as in this case, I do wrong things on purpose just to make a point. As I pointed out, not too long ago I accidentally used "you're" when I meant "your". That to me is the much bigger mistake, and I don't mind being corrected at all. :sunny:

Plum Duffed
 

I see all of you opted for the rum soaked plums, Vary good.

This is arrant *hic* knavery, up with which *hic* I shall not plum. :O:

What point were you trying to make?

A pedantic sentence if ever I read one.

Nope, quite the opposite.

My brain is buzzing, leave me alone.

That I'm not an obsessive-compulsive grammar nazi.





Which I am, but I'm taking my meds when I remember.

Double shotted duff eh. Or a overset idea to effort. The result is the same.Freedom of choice with best intentions.............hooky duty with benefits. You say it so well.
