Something I find amusing is that everytime our man Gordon starts a dish he says “it’s very simple” then proceeds to make a simple dish, but then, all of a sudden, it becomes more and more complicated till we have a final, amazing looking dish that our man Gordon has created. But you’re lost, you got the bit with the fish, and the spices, then it all went beans (meaning wrong, rather that literal beans).

I had a thought though. Similar to my dear lad Richard Hale and his phrase “Come on Tim” for anyone who has no chance of winning. I suggest that when someone starts off, then completely loses you in a conversation you could say “You had me, but you went a bit Gordon there”. Have a go, see if it fits.

Today I am in a pensive mood, a good mood, but pensive. So I decided to share my fairly boring, but could be made interesting in a pub, thoughts.

• Does the world have less, more, or the same water as it had in the beginning? (in any form, including ice).
• If we have hydrogen cars, will it mean it will rain more if everyone has a hyrdrogen car?
• Can you pull your tongue? And if so, how? (as in pulling a muscle, the toungue is meant to be a muscle)

So, there it is, something to bring up in the pub. Scintillating!
