Nomad Cake
Full of Pie might have set the trend, but cake for Rs achievements has been embraced with aplomb in our 'hood. Daz Rhyfelwr and Jdeh Rhyfela turned up at my house on Thursday with Nomad Cakes! This was in honour of my having pwnt Nomad a week and half before (as they'd forgotten them the previous Thursday).
I was really touched! They both individually claimed to have baked and iced them. I can confirm that they were delicious! The momentus award ceremony was marred only slightly by Jdeh Rhyfela informing me that each sprinkle represents each time that Nomad kicked my backside. >^_^
:D
Ok, I laughed.
We had another IRL Nomad moment a month or so ago. In an incident involving a settee, my sister-in-law calling and possibly the dog, Daz's laptop ended up with a smashed screen on the living room floor. Horrified at the prospect of anyone being unplugged, I took him up to the local computer repair shop. It was back within a few days and then we had a bit of a shock. The computer repair shop hasn't got a big sign. It's basically a tiny shop run by a couple of geeks, whom I'd trust much more than the big department stores. In fact, I was quoted £500 by the store who sold us the laptop, after I'd called mostly to check the warranty and insurance. This little shop charged Daz £110 instead. The sign above the door mostly says, 'Computers!' I wasn't even aware that they had a name. They do. 'Nomad Computers'. D: True story that.
