They aren't vegetarian as the red ones are coloured with cochineal. Not that I'm saying you are vegetarian it's just interesting trivia. You might be a vegetarian though, it's hard to tell in print.

Jeez, what have I started here?

Smarties are the new marmite. (And share several letters).

Thanks for that, had a craving for a Pernod and black the other night, went into the liquor store and asked the bird behind the counter where her mixers were because I was after some blackcurrant cordial.

The look on her face (to steal a Peter Kay phrase) was as though i'd just walked into her house on Xmas day and p***ed on her kids

1st error = no idea what a 'mixer' was
2nd error = cordial wtf

I left with some spiced rum and root beer.

I'm not, but I think most of the people I know are Thinking of going veggie at some point maybe. I already drink soy milk and eat tofu so it wouldn't be hard! I couldn't give up fish though ...

you could always become a Pescetarian

I drink soy milk (dairy allergy) and eat tofu but I am firmly an omnivore...

Hey my kids one of them pescy things!

Oh Moo! I know that look so well Usually at crimbo time when we sell down vests and I call them body warmers Or when people ask me what a FOG OFF (chamois sponge) is for and I call the windshield a windscreen, I am so used to getting this look:

But you've been here long enough to not be using those words and phrases...no?

By the way ta very much for the email, my sons appreciate greatly.

Your very welcome. Yes I have converted and in the main I do speak the Canadian, but sometimes, when I don't think, I will come out with the English word, especially when the Canadian isn't sure what something is called or is describing something, or if I'm really busy or tired. It's good for conversing I suppose, they then tend to ask me some more englishism's.

Their is no such thing as Soy milk, its Soy juice at best we grow soya beans here and they cant be milked

My favourite crisps are pickled onion flavoured Monster Munch.

I can thoroughly confuse patients asking them to take their shirt off and leave their vest on. Or trousers off and pants on. I learned that one quickly- always always say leave your underpants on. It can be so gruesome otherwise.

That's a good idea actually! I like to call it "vegequarian" ... ha ha.

Oh Bless

you can milk a bear !!
