I think I may have heard you shrieking - even though I'm the other side of Brisbane

Bernieboy

I thought you said the bloke never heard you scream with pleasure

Pollyana

I'd forgotten about the Jaffa Cakes

At risk of sounding pedantic: isn't the standard call charge 20p these days?

Bernieboy

You can lend him the other 10p Mr Pedandtic


PS,he was in Scotland,they would never pay 20p for a phone call )

best place for it

Its a toss-up (or a chuck-up ) between that and dandelion & burdock as to which is worse, I reckon

mikelincs

I used to love dandelion and burdock, but they seem to have done something to it to alter the taste, and I don't l;ike it anymore, same as Walkers beef and onion crisps, there were delicious, then in the interests of making changes for changes sake they changed the flavouring, and started to call them Steak and onion, don't eat them now.

rasen78

Oooh I used to love Dandelion & Burdock - really takes me back to my chidhood. I reckon the authentic taste came from the old glass Corona bottles that you could get your bottle deposit back for That and the proper Cherryade and Ginger Beer

Pollyana

Showing my age now, we used to have a guy that came round the village in a Corona van, selling bottles of lemonade and stuff, and taking all the empties back - I guess there were deposits on those, but my mum would've kept that

ROMFT_WO2RN

you're all heathens Itn Bru from a glass bottle with a fish supper

mikelincs

Yes we used to have that came every week, my sister and I were allowed one bottle each..

Pollyana

Heathen and proud of it I'll have then fish supper, but I'll settle for apple juice instead of yucky stuff!

ROMFT_WO2RN

by "apple juice", I presume you mean cider
