Grrr, why has Tesco got no Marmite, now what am I going to put on my toast.
Had to order some from Amazon, hopefully it will come midweek.

Is it coming by boat?
No, it's just the gravy that comes by boat

Have you tried Marmite bars?




They taste awful, even though I love Marmite. The rice cakes are lovely.

I love marmite I really do but my mate Ali Gugs hates it with a passion.  He told me about the time him and his wife fell out, she went in the kitchen and spread Marmite thickly all over a sandwich ate it and then went in the living room pretending to make up with him. As soon as he kissed her he was gagging all over the place.  Classic. Woman after my own heart.  _))*

The "go compare" advert for car insurance was voted most annoying ad for 2010 and rightly so.  However what's even more annoying is the new ad with sub titles.  I just can't help singing along in my mind now, trying to fit the words in with the music.  :(

The ones that make me laugh are the two weekly "build your own boat" mags.  £6.99 an issue with a bit of wood, if you read the small print the model will take 2 yrs or more to complete with a total cost of over £600. They're having a laff.
When my lad was about 6 he wanted the "treasures of the earth."  For months I had to pay £4 an issue and we ended up with box after box of tiny bits of stone. Pointless. Expensive and pointless come to think of it.

yes, at the moment i have on the go a Tiger tank in weekly parts, James Bond's Aston Martin and the boat all in weekly parts, you fit one part which takes a couple of minutes then wait a week! the suspense kills me wondering what next week's part will be  :-X

If I didn't like Steven Seagal before I really don't now. Hubby wanted to watch the Justin lee Collins interview.  Seagal has just said he came to Llandudno with his band and he thought the Welsh were inbreds who liked sheep for some reason the pillock. Hubby saw my face and sat there laughing.  We can quite safely say Valentines is now well and truly over (for him anyway)  :rage:
