fritZ in London

2007-05-01 by fdoddy@aol.com

Hi Folks,

I will be in London for a series of meetings and what-not the week of 5/7, Monday thru Thursday. Specifically, I have set aside Thursday as a personal day to tool around and enjoy myself. If anyone on the list from Londontown wishes to get together and hoist a few and/or break bread that day, 5/10, please email me. I would enjoy meeting some more folks from the list or seeing old friends.

cheers,

fritZ

Fritz,
While you're there, please score some potted meat. Also, Spam seems to be a main staple over there. See if it's any different from the Hormel variety.

Our Spam is also made by Hormel. It's possibly the classiest US import
we receive after McD's. Thanks for your help in the war lads, but the
evil Boche has been defeated for some sixty years now, so you can stop
sending your recovery parcels. The powdered egg is shite too.

For real revoltingness you must seek out a pot of Shipphams meat or
fish paste. If you're really keen on revese peristalsis, the far rarer
brand of Far North potted "meats" never fails to get results.

Fritz.
Would you be thinking of M4000 hunting in the middle part of our country while you're here?
Could well be worth making the journey by then. Martin and John always make you feel welcome to their neck of the woods. Together with insulting the hell out of you for good measure!

MMMMMM. I'm simply drooling over the idea of fish paste. When I think seafood, that's going to be the 1st thing that come to mind. Oops, sorry. Do you eat that or use it to stick stuff together? Over here we make paste out of horse hooves. It tastes awful!

Frank, Frank, Frank. Come on. Use your head. You use the stuff to reassemble fish that have somehow fallen apart. Because of fish paste, it's practically unknown in the UK to find a fish that isn't in one piece. Why, I've heard some stories that would just astound you. Granted, none of them have anything to do with broken fish, but they I guarantee they would astound you.

PS I'm currently working on a formulation for Fritz paste. If he ever comes apart, I promise I'll be ready!

PPS I'm close to finishing up my latest project which involves a process I'm calling Martinizing. We hope to make the announcement in two weeks.

Hi Rick et al, Is this the "Gefilte Fritz" I heard about in the
stalls of Montezuma ??

Has anybody checked Google Earth recently if JB is still under
the Rover effecting repairs ? BTW, many dry-cleaning shops here
in the 1960s featured Martinizing . Something about squeezing
things together between rolling objects. Sounds like tapes,pinch roller,
and capstans.....Also sound like,......nah, I won't go there !

Cheers, -- Hedley Lamarr ( that's HEDLEY !)

Hey Rick:

Isn't that Martinizing project only suppose to take 1 hour?

And I didn't know they hired JB to fix that balloon monster Rover for that TV show The Prisoner! If he's under it he better hope it doesn't bring him back to the Village!

I've got a Dinky Toy of that silly mini jeep in that show. I'm going to go play with it now. :)

Be seeing you!!
