I used to bloody love Aldi Melton Mowbray ones in the grey wrapping - same ones? Bit peppery but jelly, grey filling and fabulous pastry all great, with crispy base. Allowed in bed. Definitely.

Splendid foil for so many 'stars' over the years, having such lovely eyes to go with her impeccable timing. Who would guess that she and Richard Burton were near-exact contemporaries? (Well, I would but only because I have his name!)

I'm sure they do - and they DON'T even knock or ring when they do manage to deliver: just leave the package on the doorstep in full view of passers-by. If you're out, or not psychic, bad luck.

Here, too. It is, of course, a re-brand of the disgraced 'Hermes', but still hires drivers the other carriers seem to reject. I've BEGGED suppliers not to use them after load one was damaged at hub: they still used them, and the re-delivery could not be made despite it being an urgent replacement 😡

Yes, The Telegraph: that well-known espouser of right-wing, free-market capitalism ... except when the best-placed buyers of its own shoddy little title happen to have brown faces ... that Telegraph? I have the oddest feeling that Editgate might yet rebound in its pink, scrubbed face?

It is! This is a fine set with terrific sound (thus far): I've opted for the Apple lossless version, while the 320 mp3 comes in at around 2.5 minutes per penny!! And what music!

Interesting to consider it. One snag might be the active verb, 'To tax' someone, or passive 'To be taxed' - any alternatives? ('To contribute' is already taken) 🤔

Never in the field of human retribution has a deserved, reciprocal tariff been so simply presented to a prime minister to apply. Never in the field of Labour leadership has a head been plunged so firmly in the sand.
100%.

Frankly, if one's core expenditure can't be met adequately, then it's irresponsible not to seek further revenue in order to do so. I'll take no lectures in taxation from Conservatives and their 1,000 tax rises from 2010+

The one thing Fox can't claim is 'I didn't realise' - he kept pouring fuel on the fire he felt he was stirring. His claims were monstrous and the original award entirely in keeping with the outrage and vindictiveness he caused. He needs to pay up NOW and. go. away.
