  1. I have a big George Foreman. I am so glad I bought it. Take 4 "all beef" beefburgers (Birds Eye or whoevers) and cook them in a George Foreman. You do get a drip tray with the GF. 5 or 6 minutes and they are thoroughly cooked. Enjoy! Now look at the drip tray ......... it is full of grease, and I mean full. All that saturated fat is what you would eat if you fried the burgers. Another step to a heart attack. Now those 4 "all beef" beefburgers taste absolutely wonderful and actually taste of BEEF. My other half's neices say that my burgers are far the best they have ever had. I don't eat burgers very often but my burgers are simply the best when cooked in a George Foreman. Add sliced tomato, onion and a little relish and wow! (Forget the barbecue, use a George)
  2. Give me your camera and I'll tell the school I'm from the Times
  3. I always laugh when the news comes on. "CHAOS ON THE ROADS", "BRITAIN GRINDS TO A HALT" etc.. Travel to Moscow (-10 degrees in the day) and there's no disruption to trains etc...
  4. Just sent txt to Steve, he replied and said he'll record it and put on DVD for you.
  5. No prob, I'll record to DVD and give it to Steve.
  6. It is very rare to get something for nothing nowadays. All because they did not bow down to your request, tut! tut! want some Man U stuff?
  7. Have a history teacher explain this - (if they can). Strange but true coincidence Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost their children while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head Now it gets really weird. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln . Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters. Now hang on to your seat. Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford'. Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by 'Ford'. Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse. Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater. Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials. And here's the kicker... A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
  8. .... and it's still going .... (July 2010) Has anyone actually bought a bed from Dreams? The store is always empty when I go past.
  9. I am totally amazed at the different in petrol prices this week. Lozally the price is 121.9p / litre. In a small village in Wales it was 117.9p / litre. That's 4p per litre less than at my local large garage. How can an independant retailer sell at 4p per litre less and still make a profit? That's approx 18p per gallon less in old money. I remember the days when people would drive to the other side of town to save 1p a gallon. What happened?
  10. On my little image the manufacturer gets only 27p and the retailer 9p = 36p The government gets (duty+vat) 80p per litre (based on £1.16/litre) at last years 15% VAT. V.A.T has (as we know) reverted back to 17.5% in January and next year V.A.T @ 20% so even more for the government. So when the cost of oil goes up then the government get an even bigger slice based on their duty calculations. I am already cutting back on my mileage not because of global warming but because I can't afford the petrol. Petrol prices effects the poor even more because it's a bigger percentage of their (already low) income.
  11. Mmmmmmm! Now we all know why petrol is so expensive, yet the Government/Country is broke ????
  12. All you who voted "NO" are correct. The Dreams Sale has continued under a new disguise of 25 years anniversary. Has anyone ever seen anyone actually shopping at Dreams?
  13. The Dreams sale has been on since November 2008, yes 2008. They always say "Ends Soon", "Specially Extended", "Ends Monday" etc... Will it really end after only 16 months of continued sales?
  14. Sometimes don't you just miss living in Britain?
