So basically you are making and selling onion marmalade that smells of farts? Nice.

Yes, I can only describe the smell as "old mans socks" or Parp's when you have had too much meat.
When I used to cook this product, I would have to strip off in the Porsch, porch I mean, the porsh was a different story, and even after a Dettol bath and a shower I could still smell sweaty Bagfers on my hands.

I went into the schools kitchen yard today and remarked "Who's Guffed?" one of the cooks said "right, thats it!" and marched back inside...
The other cook there said you're the 3rd person to say that, but it's the beef curry!
I had to go and apologise :oops:

After several hours of that - I will be able to sympathise.

Plus, you will learn its little idiosyncrasies: How often it goes off, does it have a certain cycle to it etc.

Why don't you own any white stilettos? They appear to be very much back in fashion!

Yes but you see you said you'd like to torch a car. I was insinuating that that is a common occurrence in Essex, which happens to be next door to Kent.

Yes but I was stereotyping. You're not helping, I'm trying to explain the rationale behind my post to Charlalottie.

Having trouble Topher?! I'm an Essex girl and on the whole I know for a fact that your stereotype belongs only in the South of the county - but this is somewhat ruined by the fact that a car was torched outside my house a few weeks ago. At least it wasn't mine. Although come to think about it......

You're right, I'm not the Essex stereotype at all. I even design and make some of my own clothes. My favourite is the silk jacket with the reinforced pockets which are created specifically to hold a half bottle of vodka in each.

Have never answered this one : lifes irritations : domestic stuff... and the time it takes more to the point. Traffic jams, or more to the point, having the patience to SIT in traffic jams. Rude people. Local radio. Marmalade. :-)

Marmite is simply wrong. As are twiglets.
