Peanuts and Coffee

My late-night snack
  of peanuts and coffee
has got my family
  thinking I'm daffy

But if they weren't such late-risers
  they'd be appalled to see
me noshing red onions with mackerel
  in a wet towel ~ Call me Admiral

I truly think this is fabulous and I do not know what noshing means, but it delighted me the most.

I have absolutely no idea whatsoever what this is about… so why is it so bloody funny. I’m sure I don’t know… but it is. Big grins. Terry

Terry, we are on the same wavelength here. I find it funny too, and can't figure out why for the life of me. ~ At least not for the death of me, gw

How about pecans and coffee for a late night snake with dried pineapple. That's my treat.

If you ate mackerel wrapped in a towel I’d call you admirable… Belle
