Banner ad for this page for me at the moment: "Read how I lost 90lbs"

Thanks! The last one with the sauce looks especially nice

Rather annoyingly, I have an ad at the top saying "Don't buy the PRS-505", but it does then go on to say something about well, not until you've compared all the deals.

Arg. I may have a mouse-proof kitchen, but I don't have a waterproof one. The seal on the sink plug hole has gone.

Possibly interesting, but we don't do microwave.... whoops ....

No eggs in Scotland. No microwave int the third millenium. You, my friend, are lost in time and space.

Well, as long as we have breadth, width, height, length and spatial awareness to the power 15, we should be OK ....

Now I see why you do chocolate candy. You can boil creek water over an open fire, then melt the chocolate double-boiler style. Dip some rocks and twigs in for fiber and crunch.

Hey! Don't ye go all Pict on me! I'm from a Scottish family - McCravy (branched from McCrary after an illiterate ancestor misspelled his name by making the second "r" too wide so that it looked like a "v" to the immigration people when he got off the boat in S. Carolina).

all we need now is a bright spark to point out that Pict and Scot are two different beings ....
