How about HP sauce? I am in the Health Physics field and always found it funny.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

Senate Floor Speech on Public Debt

Sticky toffee pudding...mmmmm....best washed down with a Guiness !

Always find myself doing that with my father in law when I am there...

...good memories... :)

But, I have to ask...Are Branston beans that good???

Tonight, I am chatting on the phone with Mr. Bruce, and he tells me he having a midnight snack of beans on a toasted softie...He then tells me that it's not Heinz beans, but Branston beans, which are just (in his words), "effing amazing"...

Are they really that "effing amazing"???

Am I the only Brit that hates those tinned puddings? One day about ten years ago I looked at the ingredients and that was it. There aint no way I'm putting that in my body again :no: In fact I don't eat anything that comes from a tin. I'm probably the only one here that doesn't? :P

I have been known to eat chocolate that comes from a Cadbury or Galaxy wrapper though ;)

Kezzie, if you run short on Tetley, a lot of stores are now selling "Tetley British Blend". It's not quite the same as actual Tetley. But it's pretty close. :)
