As all the other teams were wearing tee shirts of various degrees of decay we stood out from the crowd. The black embroidered Seti@Home logos on the backs of our black tail coats were really something else - the icing on the cake one might say.
As for bacon fat spillage - we managed a big zero on our fronts, I think the thought of the cleaning bill aided in our care ;-)


Oh...

Oh! Well!

Well done!

Were you specially trained for that Rob? :]

It's just... I tend to accumulate vast quantities of my day all over myself... a sort of diary of debris if you like.

I took home the fat/grease produced in cooking the bacon in a Bacon Butty Bonanza Bash commemorative cup. Made a nice nightcap after heating it up in the micro.


What an excellent idea Zappy! How would I go about extracting it from my clothing and getting it into the cup do you think? :)

Stick it in the micro for half a minute, extract by manual vacuum.

Special training - yes, I can't say where or when, but lets say "Trained by the best"...

There were concerns about TL04 being on our team as it was feared that he might distort time and space to our advantage, but in the end those fears were allayed by Zapped's awesome display - I've never seen so many bacon butties vanish so rapidly (even a truck load of squaddies would have been a poor second to him).

Bacon soup for starters, bacon pie with bacon chips and bacon peas for the main meal. And finally, bacon cake covered in bacon ice cream for desert.

Hospital treatment (if required) will be included.

Hello all you lovely folks! :) I'll skip bacon to make sure Zappy has enough and just watch from the sidelines :)

Hmm, I do have some chocolate ice cream. I could put some bacon pieces on top...

Out of bacon, going grocery shopping Saturday afternoon. Plenty of SPAM to grill and add to left-over mac&cheese, though......

...I suppose it was hosting the Big Bacon Butty Bonanza that upset the stock control.
