    Did the ' keeping hot dogs hot ' trick decades ago for family picnics as many picnic outings ended up with rain . Also used to bung in some shredded onions which would slowly cook in the hot water . Fond memories ❤

    As you go toward Bow, on the left going east, there used to be a hand painted sign on the side of the shop by the canal, that read Bow Locks (no, I'm not going to explain) and the last shop in the row was chinese restaurant, with a sign that said FOO KIN CHINESE.

      To be fair, Taft was a stress eater and probably slept poorly, who got a lot bigger after his good friend Theodore Roosevelt (along with Taft's selfish wife) forced him into running for Pres and when Taft got into office, Taft wouldn't let TR (the egomaniac) run the country under Taft's name, then TR retaliated by starting the Bull Moose party, which split the vote, so Taft lost his second term and Wilson won. Taft just wanted to be on the Supreme Court. Poor guy! I'm surprised he didn't have a heart attack. (Wilson later named Taft to his dream job, which got at TR for himself and for Taft. NOT Karma. Politics.) Thoroughly nice man.

      Mr. Taft suffered from Obstructive Sleep Apnea, so fell asleep "almost randomly" due to that.

      @@tiltonroadbirmingham1153 Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I had to do some research. Sadly, no tusks. Would've been fun, though, Bull Moose vs. Walrus.

      Love cream in my tea. It looks like that. Lot of Brits want cream in their tea, that's why they don't have the cardiovascular benefits from drinking tea as the Japanese do - who take theirs straight.

    OK I almost stopped this travesty at Cheese and Onion buns. Then you crossed the line and mixed cereals together. This has to stop.

    BossDT, I need to study up on British slang and humor. I didn't do a good job of translating the humor.
