Tsunami Dinner

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Maybe 'Tsunami' as opposed to 'Tsumani' would have got a few more people interested? Spelling correctly helps. And ab-fab that you decided to show and share with us. I'm sure the thousands who've lost their lives (and their relatives and the tens of thousands that have been affected) are chuckling away. Especially at all you wankers who even bothered to respond to this thread.

Mind you, if the size of the servings are anything to go by, I bet your guests were still still hungry at the end of the meal. :innocent: Apart from that small detail, top stuff!:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

I'd still be hungry afterwards. Pretty, though.
