Fish Finger sandwiches

Fish Finger sandwiches are the primary source of food for all.

Recipe

  • Spread thickly with butter.
  • Oven bake 4 fish fingers until crisp but not burnt, and a potato waffle (must be a square one).
  • Place a Dairylea or Kraft cheese slice on one slice of the bread.
  • Lay the hot fish fingers lenghtways across the cheese slice and bread (4 is the perfect number and fits most sizes of loaf).
  • Place the waffle on top of the fish fingers.
  • Squirt on some ketchup (too much will overpower the fabulous taste so be gentle).
  • Shut the lid.
  • Cut in half across the fish fingers not lengthways.
  • Enjoy (the first mouthful should always burn the roof of your mouth).

This sandwich provides all the basic food groups. what other food can do such a wonderful thing?

Golf

Golf is a sport where the player must hit a small, spherical white object called a ball, into a small sunken space called a hole using a long stick with a hard bit at the end.

Legally, golf may only played by persons that own a Volkswagen Golf, though a temporary golf day-pass may be purchased at any good golf retailer.

History

Golf was invented by Volkswagen in 1942 and though a largely German game, has been adapted over time by the British after it’s liberation from Nazi Germany in 1945. Originally thought to be the brain child of Volkswagen genius, Hermann Wolfgang Amadeus Westerveld, it was later found out to be created as a direct order from Adolf Hitler who wanted a game he could play with other German leaders of the time, that didn’t involve shooting jewish people.

Playing Golf

Every game of golf is based on the number of holes on the course in a given order. Typically, a round of golf consists of 18 holes with players either walking, or driving their Volkswagen Golf between holes. Sometimes a golfoid (one who plays golf) may be accompanied by caddies, who in todays terms would be classed as slaves, and carry the golfoid’s clubs, bag and sometimes the golfoid themselves.

The general aim of the game is to complete the course in the least number of shots, though often in team play, extra negative-points are award for violence and positive results in caddy-fighting.

Hitting the ball

To hit the ball, the long sticky thing is swung at the motionless ball on the ground from a side stance. When beginning the hole, the ball is placed on a tee about twelve inches from the ground. When a tee is not available, the caddy must lie on the ground, and the ball must be hit from his lips.

Par

Par is the term used to describe the number of holes a skilled golfoid would take to complete the hole. It is generally determined by the distance from the tee (the starting point) to the green (where the hole is), though sometimes the number is determined by a random number generator.

Handicap

A golf handicap is determined by the number of limbs a golfoid has remaining at the end of a completed course. This can directly affect the score on a golfoid’s game card during the final scoring process.

Prizes

Though there are generally no prizes (other than pride) in amateur golf, golfoids sometimes compete for pink slips, and may often end up with many different Volkswagen Golfs during their golfing life.

Equipment

Golf sticks

A golfoid may carry anything up to 256 sticks in his bag, or in competition play, a number generated by dividing his age by the number of holes on the course, and then multiplied by the number of women that have spurned his sexual advances due to his love of golf.

There are three main types of sticks:

  • Wood – These are made from Tungsten and are used for long shots on the fairway.
  • Iron – These are used for straightening the golfoid’s shirt, and for precision shots on the fairway.
  • Putter – These are used to put the ball in the hole, and often in crazy golf.

Golf balls

These are generally made from ivory, gained from killing the world’s most endangered animals (such as Elephants, Rhinos and Giraffes). They must have exactly 322 dimples to be considered a golf ball, a law created in 1956 to prevent cheating.

Golf bags

These are often made from real elephant feet, and must be created by hand by the caddy two days prior to the game. After use, these feet are attached to the elephant again, who goes on to lead a perfectly normal life.

Egg cup

An egg cup, sometimes called egg doofer, is a container used for serving boiled eggs within their shell. Egg cups were invented in 1921 by David Eddie Howes and were quickly accepted into kitchen’s across the world.

They can be made of china, pottery, wood, skin, plastic, glass, rubber and various metals only found in Britain.

Egg cups are popular with collectors. There are newsletters for egg cup collectors, there are also egg cup conventions for collectors in England. Egg cup collectors are reknowned for their lack of friends and social skills.

Trivia

  • Egg cups caused 21,264 deaths in Britain, during 2005. In North America they cause more deaths each year than incorrectly loaded toasters.
  • Egg cups weren’t made to fit eggs, eggs (since 1921) have been made to fit the egg cup.
  • Egg cups made of glass are called oracles.
  • Mrs Gita Mistri of Leicester, England, is widely believed to have the biggest collection in the world. Though losing count in 2001, she claims to have over eleventy-thousand.

  • Pirate – A thief type character with that comes with a bonus to sword skill, as well as a novelty parrot. Cannot be played by Bunnies.
  • Mork – A dimension travelling alien species, occasionally contacts his own planet, and is succeptible to falling for drippy american actresses with alledged drug problems.
  • Accountant – Ideal class for the financially concerned, but likely to bore the tits off anyone not afflicted by Autism.
  • Sherman – The ideal tanking class. Is actually a tank, can do nothing apart from drive and shoot. Cannot be played by Merkins.
  • Catholic Priest – The healing class, cannot fight and gets intimidated easily. Not good with children.
  • Tree – Self explanatory, is just a tree. Looks pretty, can develop specialities (acorn, conker or apple) at level 60.
  • Terminator – The ultimate damage-per-second class, however only functions after 6pm and must work for it’s local county council during office hours.

Characters must earn sexperience points to advance through the levels, either through completely jobs for various mini factions, or by simply killing a variety of non playable enemy characters, such as Boars or Marmots.

At level 5, characters may choose to learn two professions allow goods to be crafted and traded amongst other characters. A character may learn:

  • Dealer – Trade in illegal substances such as Crack, Findus Crispy Pancakes or Wood.
  • Estate Agent – Trade in Warcraft property, which unfortunately is as yet implemented.
  • Shoe Maker – Craft the finest shoes for all occasions.
  • Olympic Athlete – Adds run speed, ability to compete in races but prone to doping tests, media scorn and athlete’s foot.

Control

Online forms

An online form is a special page on the World Wide Web upon which you are invited to send your credit card details and other personal information to a stranger pretending to be Ebay. On computers with Dual-Core processors online forms suck out the information automatically.

Where do Online Forms go?

Online forms go into space where NASA intercepts them, faxes them back to earth, and then they get posted to Market Harborough.

This process takes 8 days.

When there’s a solar-storm, it fucks up NASA’s machines and delays the process for up to 37 days.

Cheese

Cheese is a common, often yellow, source of nourishment that is not to be confused with Geese, which are a flying creature capable of squawking loudly to those that pass them.

History

Cheese was first produced in the 14th century in Hackney, England. Whilst dealing with an outbreak of Marmots, locals decided to try and milk the captured vermin and found that the yield was of a creamy texture which solidified on contact with the air.

The name Cheese was decided upon by a Mr. Audrey Harriot, often believed to the be ancestor of television nitwit chef Ainsley Harriot.

Consistency

Cheese is mostly a solid, but at boiling point can melt to the consistency of tar.

In 1946, following the end of World War 2, Mr Philip Adelphia created the worlds first spreadable cheese and cornered a market that would go untouched until Thomas Dairylea created his now famous brand of triangle shaped cheese bites.

Trivia

  • In World War 1 cheese was used as both an explosive and as a source of calcium to British troops.
  • Though ‘calciyummy’, cheese does not turn the milk chocolatey.
  • There are 14 different types of cheese, 12 of which are french, 1 english and 1 swiss. All other cheeses are essentially the english cheese (cheddar) with food colouring or bits of cabbage added.
