  1. If its the HDNL then you're in trouble. Turbo Gash. City Link, I think. Either way, resigned to it not turning up today (funnily enough ), so ho hum. I'm getting something from Amazon via City Link on Tuesday and after all the bother I had with them last month, I checked whether they were back to normal on their web site - apart from 4 or 5 depots they claim to be okay. Finally showed up yesterday via HDNL despite Amazon saying it would be City Link. Which would explain why the tracking number didn't work. Of course, this was a day after the fella called Amazon about it and they told him they'd cancel the order immediately and give him a refund. Anyway, v. happy with it. Sony Bravia, a relatively modest 32" - there's a limit to the number of inches my parlour can take.
  2. I love the optimistic "Counting as one of your five a day..." in that write-up. And ooh, spinach pesto... Google hunt mode engaged.
  3. Crikey. I'm picturing this as a "desert island discs", so I'd want a bit of variety in there. Well, there'd have to be something by Waits, I suppose "Rain Dogs" is the obvious one but I'd miss his more conventional stuff and it'd be hard to do without "Blue Valentine" or "Heartattack and Vine". Then I'll have any album with an Ashkenazy recording of Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 on it. And let's take Therapy?'s "Troublegum" as the third pick, just for old time's sake.
  4. I've got tons of baby leaf spinach in, for reasons too complicated to go into here. Anyone got any good recipe ideas? I'll do a sag aloo-type curry with it if nowt else, but something a bit more adventurous would be canny too.

    Used to get a fairly steady flow of that when my fella was living in Serbia, if we're talking slivovitz/rakia type stuff. Everyone seems to have a relative whose postman's cousin's neighbour makes it in buckets under the porch out in the country or whatever. Used to come in old coke or wine bottles, whatever they had to hand, for about £2 a litre. Absolutely sodding lethal too. I miss that lost winter of 2006/07.
  6. http://www.sweet-david.com/ I thought you weren't interested in looking up things like that. I'm starting to worry you might be obsessed. just replying to you. Did I ask you anything ? Perhaps you could remind me
  7. I'm inevitably reminded of
  8. Three innings victories. Daft.
  9. I don't tend to buy into the Weight Watchers brand, but I picked this up from Smiths for a few quid recently and it's a goodie IMO: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Weight-Watchers-De...5011&sr=8-1 Plenty of surprisingly interesting recipes, and you can always increase the portion sizes by 50% to make them actually fit for a normal human being. I know that defeats the point a bit, but it's still healthy stuff at heart.
  10. We've got two tubs of them here. And about half a dozen slabs of Dairy Milk. God bless unimaginative relatives at Christmas time.

  12. Oh, you'd be surprised. Some of them plebs are pure filth. :icon_lol:
  13. Sorry like, I know what you're saying, but still
  14. Well I'm glad someone's been googling "chubby chaser" at least.
  15. I've got one of their albums because it was 89p in the Woolies closing-down sale.
  16. Painfully middle-class. Two generations back and my dad's lot were shipbuilding in the East End while my mam's lot were market gardeners in small-town Sweden, but that means sod-all when you're brought up as a Gosforth silver-spooner.

    Beer

    OK, so where do I get it ? Aldi, LIDL, Morrisons etc ? I revived this thread because I wanted to look for the recommended beers in LIDL etc Anywhere big should have it really. I get mine from Tesco and Sainsburys.

    Beer

    Aye, it's strong but because it's a pale ale it doesn't taste overwhelming despite its percentage (IMHO anyway). Which is where the danger lies.
  19. Not considered the best one... ...but that's just me BEING AN UTTER BELLEND
