    Hasn't the industry agreed to reduce the sugar content in their products? This is a sure way of doing it. You should be praising them for their efforts to improve the nation's nutrition.

    Whilst also reducing packaging by making the boxes smaller. It's a stroke of genius that I overlooked. I wish they'd make the boxes square though.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Looks like I should have asked Santa for some new earphones for xmas. Mine have just died from a loose wire. I rely on youtube to keep me awake too :/

    Did anyone manage a Christmas like the adverts? When did normal become dysfunctional?
    When did I become profound?

    Christmas like the adverts? The adverts for Rennies or the ones for asprin?
    We had second Christmas at my mum's today, the first Christmas this century without my (ex)brother-in-law being there and casting his shadow over the day. No having to be polite for the sake of my sister and even his kids were happier without him there. It's a shame she didn't divorce him years ago.

    New money making scheme: Since people are thick enough to buy magic beans on Ebay hoping that they will turn into blue strawberries or whatever blatantly photoshopped nonsense is trending this week, and since plastic grass is becoming a multi-million pound blight on the planet, my plan is to sell genuine plastic grass seeds. I suspect they'll sell like hot plastic cakes. My instructions will tell people to sow the seeds on bare earth and not to touch the guaranteed maintenance free sward for at least 8 months while it completes its installation cycle. Then I'll just package up native wildflower seeds and give the pollinators a feast for the summer.
