Made myself a lovely tea tonight. McCain home fries, with my own special coating of cajun, chilli and mixed spice. Topped it off with some mushy peas. Awesome.
I was proper starving too and had been looking forward to it all day. So I go and sit myself down on the couch, when suddenly the whole lot slides off the plate onto the floor. I watched in horror, and then began wondering what the excrutiating pain was on the lower part of my right leg.
I look down and see that my foot and ankle are covered in scalding hot mushy peas, which were burning their way through my skin to the bone like the blood from Alien.
I picked the chips up and put them back on the plate, but drew the line at scraping the peas off my shoe so they bit the dust.
I've now got a big burn blister on my ankle, a little one on my calf and a ruined pair of Gazelles.
Not my finest hour.
