What do you "assign" to the Shire? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

A long, leisurely Sunday breakfast shared with a good friend at the local diner.

Pancakes, eggs, sausage, crispy bacon, hashbrowns, biscuits covered in gravy, and bottomless cups of coffee with cream and sugar to wash it all down. Pleasant company, good conversation.....

Life is good, eh?

I second long breakfasts and the company of friends but (and I know it means something different that side of the pond) but biscuits covered in gravy still sounds incredibly revolting ..... at best it is something you might give a dog... but hten I'd quite happily eat Toad-in-the-hole

Sleep.

Really, you cannot fully appreciate something you're used to until you stop getting enough of it.

Rain. We so need it.

Coming home from a two week vacation. Don't get me wrong, I had a wonderful vacation, but home, ah, well it's home.

I'll have to second that, except with hip joints and legs.

I assign suspended classes. I know we'll suffer later because we have to make up for what we missed, but it's fun at the time all the same.
