Ditto. I can remember mince in something going cold enough that the fat started congealing and floated on the surface. Don't miss meat one bit.

I'm the reverse. Never know, the world might end before you have to eat the thing you don't like.

I happened to be down there today. The fash were probably outnumbered five to one. By the police.

I did some work-experience in Imperial Tobacco in Bristol in 1991 just as the plant was winding down. There was a sign in their office that said "Thank you for smoking".

Very sad to see this rare 1962 #SunbeamRapier abandoned like this. It's the same car #JoeMeek had, and in the same finish. No idea if it's stolen but it looks like it's been around the corner of the Avonmouth Tavern, BS11 9JE for some time. #VintageCar, #BarnFind, #ClassicCar.

Worse that that, recent research has concluded that it actually *can* turn around.

Now the question is "what are we gonna do with this?"

Do I need to keep my milk of Magnesia in the fridge?

"him"? What is this, the '70s? There is more than one type of person.

I've got some in the fridge, might try them later. My best fake meat discovery last year were these fiery little Polish sausages.

....and do something less boring instead. Took the theme tune's instructions to heart so I don't know if the show was any good.

Probably just Nosin' Around for kids

Will also need a DAC - modern TVs tend to only have optical outputs for audio.

I've not had one for at least 20 years but I imagine they're still disgusting

Seeing as it's a contraction of " omnibus ", it ought to be spelled " 'bus ".

Maybe specify which curtains?

Two perfect 90s albums that coincidentally feature the same singer. Silver Apples Of The Moon by Laika and Eva Luna by Moonshake.

Why did nobody tie me down when I was younger and force me to listen to This Heat? Just played their debut in full and it's full of "oh, that's where xyz got their entire career from" moments.

Also adds weight to the theories that 1979 or 1981 were the best years in music.

I used to go there to hang out with all the boys. Nothing gay about that.

Not sure it was a particularly high bar...

Some people aren't that bothered about animals but will eat plant based if they think it'll make 'em ripped.

Greggs - of all people - started selling more vegan sausage rolls when they pointed out they had more protein than the murder ones.

Looks like someone else will be driving Chris Rea home.

I drive because I have to, I cycle because I like it. Where I live it's quicker and far less stressful to cycle into town and I don't have to hunt around to find a place to pay ยฃ5 an hour to park.
