Oh I find the Atlantic fine - it's when we fly over Canada that seems to take forever! And Colorado!! Denver seems to be on the map for at least half of the journey!!

For most of the year, Colorado is essentially a sub-Arctic Canadia.

Because several of our U.K. ladies have been stressing today, here is an injection of humo(u)r:

British scientists have struck upon a substance guaranteed to suppress one's appetite and engender weight-loss. It's called British food.

The last time I flew back to the US, I discovered the secret of how to endure a trans-Atlantic flight. I can't reveal my secret, but I'll tell you the primary ingredients are Dramamine, wine, and Benadryl. Wait...I think I might have just revealed my secret.

You can simplify it even further, Mox -- anaesthesia by beer. (My personal favorite is paint-thinner with a little grenadine.)

You know - Jeremy was really surprised when he came to the UK for the first time as he had heard that the UK was notorious for bad food!! He got here, lost 10lbs from all the fresh veg and fresh food he was eating instead of all the processed ####### - he also loves English mustard, *real* cheese (not that plastic/rubber ####### you get there) although I couldn't get him to appreciate the joys of marmite

Oh and this is officially the best site I have found: http://www.flightview.com/

You put in the flight details, click on the flight number and it allows you to track it in real time

If anyone is interested he is in US Airways flight 732

Whaddaya mean, plastic/rubber #######? The five major food-groups are Fat, Grease, Salt, Chocolate, Beer, and Fruit Loops. (Also, 5 out of 4 people are bad at math.)

Marmite, n. - any of numerous superficially antlike social insects of the order Isoptera, many species of which feed on wood and are highly destructive to living trees and wooden structures.

Ergothuswithforthly, you accuse us of eating plastic/rubber when YOU eat wood or critters who eat wood?

'Fess up, Aly!

The best Indian food I've ever had has been in Britain. In fact, I don't think I ever had even mediocre Indian food over there. It was all really good. I also had some wicked beans on toast...

I love US baked beans I must say - Bushes are yummy!! Thing is the tins are either too big or too small... I am going to get soooo fat

Jeremy loves Indian - he can't get it near where he lives so we are going out for an Indian with all my friends this Friday - I'll think of you when I am scoffing a lovely chicken tikka masala

Indians, when eaten as food, taste like chicken.

"Tins, scoffing"? (The words are "cans" and "snarfing.") If the British ever learned to speak English, Britannia could empirically rule where the sun never sets!

One of my favo(u)rite British jokes, si man:

Harry and Cedric, two venerable English gentleman, are relaxing in the smoking-room of their club, reflecting on the old days in "Injah." Harry, who is writing his memoirs, pauses, and asks, "I say, Cedric; would you spell it "Wumooph?" "No, old bean," says Cedric, "I believe that it is spelled "Woomummph."

A waitress, walking by, said, "Gentlemen, you are both wrong. The correct spelling is "WOMB."

Harry looked at Cedric and said, "Rubbish! How could she possibly know the sound of an elephant fart?"

I have eaten haggis, locusts, camel, horse, dog, and all manner of other things. So when I say I *tried* to like Marmite, I mean...I really tried. But I'm sorry. It tasted like a hospital in my mouth.

I'm jealous that you're going out for Indian, but thanks for thinking of me. If for some unexplainable reason I get a little tingle in my mouth, I'll know why!

Mox, can it be said that eating Marmite is the yeast of your worries?

I prefer bovril to marmite but still - it's a love/hate thing

for a determination of cat tongue length by use of Beefy Bovril. The science is pioneering and awe-inspiring.

[Jeraly 4]

The funny thing is my cat does love it - I must have the compatible cat they mentioned! She likes to eat bovril on toast as well
