Glad you liked it! I think Asda also does more flavours like chive and pineapple, separately, not together. I like it on toast with hot chilli pepper jelly on top. There was a cafe in Crouch End that used to serve it like that. It’s also good stuffed in a heated pita with chilli jelly or favourite chutney.@Mustard just want to say thank you for the cottage cheese influencing yesterday! The old ball and chain had to do errands this morning so I asked if he’d kindly go to Asda to buy me some Langley cottage cheese and he did.
Ate it on toast with marmite and avocado and it was tres nice.
ETA: Here is a boring picture of my lunch. Plenty of black pepper, y’all.
they were 3 for 5 qhen i was at uni.. we used to buy 6 at a time and down then.. how i could drink so much liquid is beyond mebut of course.
oh, for the days when it was 99p in Spoons. I'm getting misty-eyed in my old age here!

I’d of loved the Vengaboys although I’m the family disappointment I didn’t go to uni. I remember being jealous that my sister met Warren off Hollyoaks at hers. I’m sure my brother had Charlotte off Geordie Shore at his, there was definitely something with her because apparently she pissed herself outside Walkabout.We also had 2 of the Vengaboys (a man dressed as a sailor and a woman in gold lycra) and Chesney Hawkes - who tried to sing some of his newer songs, but everyone kept bellowing 'the one and only' at him until he got into a huff, threw his microphone on the floor and stormed off stagepoor man should have realised a room full of drunk students wasn't the best time to try and be a 'serious arteeest'
ETA - sounds like we went to similar kind of unis - I could only afford the tickets for uni events due to my evenings moonlighting as a fluffy Russian - am forever in Vlad's debt
Don’t like to piss on your northern English chips, but somewhere else had a Tuxedo Princess, just sayinThe Tuxedo Princess! Does it still exist? Our paths may have crossed back in 2000, but I would never remember because drinks were so cheap.
THIS I do not believe!!!! I have been (seriously) to see them about 5 times, my husband is a huge fan. They are proper talented musicians, I do fear that Snooker Loopy does not portray thatI went to a Beer Festival about 25 years ago & saw Chas but not Dave. The collective disappointment was palpable..
god overshare, but I remember in first year after a night with loads of those awful flavoured shots being sick on my matress (vile I know) and the colour...Oh god, I feel those who came of age during the flavoured shot era deserve some sort of certificate. We often went to Baa Bar - I believe they were a chain (although I can't say for sure as there MAY have been less than 8 locations and as we all know restaurant parlance teaches us this is the threshold for a chain) - and did round after round of sickly, sugary shots of multiple colours. Def remember Corkys too. And everyone was obsessed with that goldschlager stuff that had REALGOLDOMG in it and tasted of cinnamon.
Revolution used to serve (and may well still, tbf — I've not been in years) a delicious birthday cake flavoured shot. As you say, it was sickly-sweet and sugary, but god I thought it was sublime.Oh god, I feel those who came of age during the flavoured shot era deserve some sort of certificate.

An old flatmate drank too much Baileys one night (fancy!) and was sick out the window. We had a rather off-putting brown stain down the outside wall for months.god overshare, but I remember in first year after a night with loads of those awful flavoured shots being sick on my matress (vile I know) and the colour...no wonder i never do shots now

We had one imaginatively called "The Vodka Bar" that sold a disgusting array of sugary, nightmare fuel in shots. I vaguely remember an evening that involved numerous pints of snake bite then hitting the 'creme egg' vodka before being violently (but colourfully) ill into the pocket of a pool tableOh god, I feel those who came of age during the flavoured shot era deserve some sort of certificate.

Sick on your mattress omggod overshare, but I remember in first year after a night with loads of those awful flavoured shots being sick on my matress (vile I know) and the colour...no wonder i never do shots now
worst thing was, i turned it over, but it happened again later in the year. My mum came to pick me up at the end of the year (I was severly hungover and hadn't packed ANYTHING. she helped me, took hours which as you can imagine was hell). she saw the matress and was like omg I'm going to turn it over... was worse on other sideSick on your mattress omgI needed this giggle ty, triangulation alert but now my sister (and baby’s great grandad) and now MIL are in lockdown areas, other sister is local but works in care so won’t risk coming over, just really resentful that this is still going on as it’s depriving baby of so much. Not gonna touch baby groups with a barge pole now r is over 1 either.
Also on flavoured shots - they were always on offer which suggests they knew no one actually wanted them, so why did they keep producing them? Apple sourz
I know it seems like that but honestly - your baby doenst give a fuck - they just want you and you’re enough. It’s shit for you and your family because 2020 is the WORST. But your baby is FINE and not being deprived. Promise. Can’t imagine how hard it must be with a small one right now. Xxxjust really resentful that this is still going on as it’s depriving baby of so much. Not gonna touch baby groups with a barge pole now r is over 1 either.
I am still laughing now at the phrase ‘older man’s...aubergine...’ - has had me hooting randomly all afternoonAlso don't want to make the thread filth but Karl was too old to be sleeping with someone in a single bed that's screwed into the floor & donning a mattress protector to save you from the decades of filth before you. Also the older man's...aubergine...is very different so poor girl!
Ah bless, heretoreadit, such a shame that your little one is missing out on time with the extended family. A vastly different experience to what you'd been imagining six months ago, I'm sure. Do hope you all get to see each other before too long!Sick on your mattress omgI needed this giggle ty, triangulation alert but now my sister (and baby’s great grandad) and now MIL are in lockdown areas, other sister is local but works in care so won’t risk coming over, just really resentful that this is still going on as it’s depriving baby of so much.

Agree with this...you are the centre of her universe. But it’s still f’ing hard on you - just in terms of motherhood/parenthood is hard enough and not having other adults on hand just to give you a breather is tough. Completely get the resentment - not to derail Covid wise but why in life do the irresponsible few have to ruin it for the rest of us?I know it seems like that but honestly - your baby doenst give a fuck - they just want you and you’re enough. It’s shit for you and your family because 2020 is the WORST. But your baby is FINE and not being deprived. Promise. Can’t imagine how hard it must be with a small one right now. Xxx
Oh god I remember thinking Goldschlager was so fancyGoldschlager- when everyone said that the gold cut your throat a tiny bit so the alcohol would make you drunker. I believed that for years
