Deep fried coke?

This is a question for the Scottish people on my flist.

jacqui_hw and I were watching QI tonight and they were talking about deep fried mars bars. Jacqui said she's heard of deep fried coke but couldn't figure out how that works

Anyone heard of it or can shed any light?

Edit: Mystery solved!

Of course it's an American thing ;)

I had a plan. It was a good plan. Smart. But I just got so bored.

My plan for today largely involved sitting around and writing my Iron Man fic and making Smallville icons.

Someone out there decided this was unacceptable and that I needed a life and social interaction. Grr! LOL!

Ros is cooking me lunch, which is nice because I haven't seen her for 3 weeks.

So, fandom stuff will have to wait.

I think I'm going to have to be brutal with my icons and delete some of the excessive Smallville and Iron Man icons I have. I must have about 10 of each and variety is important. LOL!

Edit: I now have 15 free icon slots. That wasn't so painful.

Chill out

I had a lovely lunch with Ros and then we went to a garden centre to look at plants before coming back to my flat to hang out. It was nice. We sat outside

Speaking of plants, the trip out reminded me of something. Ages ago I saw these plants in a shop I used to work in. The leaves had this sort of electric purple fur/hair on them but I have no idea what they're called. Anyone know?

Now, I can't decide whether to write my Iron Man fic, make some icons or watch Pushing Daisies

Any thoughts?

A question

Feel free to point at me and call me a n00b

If I upload a new mood theme *cough*Iron Man*cough* will I completely lose my Smallville one and have to upload/code it again if I want it back? Or does LJ remember previous mood themes?

Photoshopping

I actually meant to poll about this a while ago but I forgot.

I'm just curious how many of you 'fix' photos of yourself with Photoshop or whatever before you post them on any sort of online site

Personally I don't, but I did make my hair a bit more red in an icon of myself that I used to have, and that was only because the camera didn't pick up the colour properly. Mostly what you see is what you get

Tonights viewing

I watched The Saint, which is imensely silly but a lot of fun. And flickums I still say it's better than Mission Impossible

Then I watched the first two episodes of Pushing Daisies which I am enjoying a lot. More tomorrow.

Mostly I love my job but sometimes...

Tomorrow I am likely to get into trouble for something that happened on Friday which was only partially my fault. The other person involved is off so I suspect I will have to bear the brunt of the bollocking just because I'm there and the other guy isn't.

*sigh*

Ah well.
