When someone asks "Let's get shobbin!"... what is their real intent?
Sometimes they may just be after a boiled egg and have not had the good fortune to run into one on their way home.
The Curate's Egg examines question such as these on a hourly basis & brings to bear light gathered from a plethora of practice...a recent example being the stringent FC (foot code) courteously requested upon visiting punters at its Hare & Hounds venue.
Previous visitations cited the CF (chip fork) dementia at large in the region (i.e: the risible unchecking of the wooden chip fork)in the late 1720's & again nearly 300 years later.
This is clearly a machine wash that is taking too long.
Although clearly stated by Garibaldi in his "Biscuits of the Risorgimento" volume and again in "365 PORTIONS OF CHIPS" this tedious and vallonchious piffling still occurs & prevents true sheds being light.
Living proof that neither London or asbestos is to blame for everything.

Is it just The Curate's Egg that feels that "Midlands Today" is not nearly local enough ?
