Kavaddades Watermelon Mashing

[Eggy]

Well All,

Now we've got a double glazed unit to pay for I guess we'll be chewing on those mashed melons for the next week as we won't be able to afford any alcohol!

( I think we ought to get a spare key cut as well ! )
Perhaps we should hold a forum members Watermelon Mashing contest?

I went to Arillas today but couldn't get on the beach on account of those pesky easyjet planes. And..... poor ole Vassilis ( Armourada ) ,fishing on the end of the jetty, had to keep ducking as they took off.
He said he didn't mind that but objected to them frightening the fish!

Cheers

Phil - I can see it now.
Terry holding the melon steady and, six of us all lined up.

Terry says: " Right - When I nod my head - you hit it! " - Fun for us. Headache for him!
It would certainly "beat" taking the wheels off his hire car.

Is that so? I actually had a very bad nightmare last night.

The Welly Wearing Watermelon Warrior was chasing me and I can't get the image out of my head

For heaven's sake Terry, get a grip.  You think you're scared.  I live with the bloke so please spare me a thought!!

BG - I bought a bottle of Vodka and cut the melon and mashed the ice but then realised that the only way to get them in the bottle was to empty half the bottle first. I only know one way of emptying a bottle so did my duty!

Now I find I can't focus properly to drop these pieces of ice/melon in the bottle!
Am I doing something wrong here or am I just allergic to Vodka?

Terry - Sleep well tonight
BOB used to be the name of a goldfish - Now it stands for Beware of Bamboo!

Eggy, what are you like!

You have to derind & cut up the melon, throw the pips away (there will be more than 40 lol!).  when it is in managable chunks freeze it.  I put it in bags, kept for ages in the freezer.  then when I wanted to make a cocktail, took a couple of cubes out mashed it in the whizzer poured the melon in a glass and added as much vodka as you like.  If you want to add some sugar you might like that, I used cocktail syrup.
