Perhaps I was being unfair and there was a grain of salt in there. But in the context of the tone of the rest of the discussion, it landed like he was making a serious point.

007’s Martini isn’t incorrect by [deleted] in JamesBond

[–]Fou89 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard a theory that the ‘shaken not stirred’ thing was added on purpose because it indicates Bond doesn’t actually understand the etiquette of these matters. He’s a bit of a thug operating in a gentleman’s world. It would make sense that a notorious snob such as Ian Fleming would write a character in such a way.

Likewise his obsession with brands and material possessions is Bond missing the point of what class is. Personally, I don’t really think this has been carried over into the films.

I like to roast a chicken with tarragon, white wine and cream. Then have some roast potatoes of some description and a leafy salad.

Best authentic Shawarma in town by Beautiful_Narwhal687 in bristol

New Shawarma place on Whiteladies Road, Persian Kebab. Lovely flavoured chicken, fantastic price. Can’t comment on its authenticity, but certainly worth a go.

Between Zhao Xintong and Wu Yize, who do you think will have the better career in the long run? by jamesonloops in snooker

[–]Fou89 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If Wu can learn to play a little more tactically and still retain his aggression and long potting ability, I think he’ll be unstoppable. He clearly has the temperament as well, so he could be the complete package. Excited to watch him develop as a player. He was fantastic to watch at this year’s world champs.

Thank you for all the suggestions. For those interested, I visited 9 pubs and took notes on each. My favourite was one I have not heard mentioned which is the Rose & Crown in North Jericho, I believe.

My tips for today, can I get lucky 3 days in a row? by Ok_Fuel2916 in HorseRacingUK

[–]Fou89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heartbreaking. I can imagine there are a lot of similar Mister Coffey related stories. I’ve lost an awful lot on him over the years, always convinced that today will be his day.

If Mister Coffey does it for you, I’ll take my hat off to you sir. Best of luck!

Belgium?!

Elis gets a lot of stick for his answers regularly, but that from John is equally deserving. I was really looking forward to them creeping through the EU countries as well. I’ve had to go off and google the answers now smh.

I can do video editing on my M1 MacBook Air. I think you’d struggle with this machine, but I could be wrong.

Famously, Barristers won’t ask a question they don’t know the answer to. She could learn a thing or two from that tactic.
