    Supermarkets in France

    do you? i think the majority dont care enough to be shocked. the convenience of it all under one roof at basement prices is deep veined now. tesco are trying to build a new building, bigger than the new terminal five at heathrow on a disused airfield just down the road from stonehenge. the...

    If you could live elsewhere

    mrs starry. i was not aware there is a duck pond, it is not on the route from the pub (wonderful pub, btw) to the house so am yet to set sight on it. i am happy where we live and probably would be hard pressed to pick elsewhere in the uk. i'd quite fancy some sort of wooden cabin on orkney or...

    If you could live elsewhere

    I would live where we do. We live on the edge of a wonderful little village with a proper green, an ancient pub, barn dances, a village hall where the WI still hang around, a nice duck pond, in the middle of no where. We have made this house my dream home, we're surrounded by pigs, horses and...

    The Trick or Treat Thread...............

    We're too far out for anyone to come knock our door. Nor will my children go shamelessly begging for sweets at strangers doors.

    The king of biscuits

    He is right I think, though they were both very damning of the milk chocolate version. Not really a biscuit, but I'd pick a pink wafer over a plain digestive anyday.

    Peg-Leg still moaning her arse off

    I heard her on the radio complaining about all of this her basic spiel was "You don't know what money I have asked for, I might have asked for nothing, I might just want Beatrice's future secure, I might not want any money, I might just want to get on with my life, I might not want any money, I...

    Christmas shopping

    I would love to leave my Christmas shopping until mid December, but with three children who all do weekend activities, a husband who trots off to the football every weekend and a baby who is attached to my hip I have no choice but to buy things as and when. Everything is purchased and wrapped up...

    Wilkins nominated for Manager of the Month

    wait and see on that. when bates goes, wise goed. mr mystery buyer will bring in his own men. of course bates is holding out now because a debt free championship club is worth more than a debt free league one one, and if we dont go up he still has the debt free l1 club to sell. and easy 10. we...

    Leeds Vs Millwall Violence

    they were not allowed (not that they could have sold) more tickets for the game, it was capped at 1200 and then made members only. if that was their biggest game of the season they certainly didnt act like it, was a good game with a cracking atmosphere from our side. they were only bothered...

    The best cereal

    Absolutely! I am very much in the triangle camp. The boys of the house prefer squares but get triangles, the Starry Daughters prefer bat, pumpkin, princess, fish etc shaped toast.

    Your favourite wine

    Yes, sorry, that should have read magnum crate. Some fancy wooden box, that is now a dolls house. That restaurant is how we found Sharpham wine, never been myself but some friends did and then got some bottles for a party and so on.

    Your favourite wine

    Right now for red it's a 1994 Chataux Margeaux red, someone trying to get Paddy onside gave us a magnum of the stuff which will in turn be Christmas gifts since we are not huge wine drinkers, but we opened a bottle to see if the price tag is worth it. It is very nice, but not three figure nice...

    The best cereal

    Porridge! The proper stuff, not the faux stuff you put in the microwave. We add honey/jam/fruit depending on the mood. I always have two slices of triangle toast with marmite alongside it.
