Not a big fan of them wraps, had one in brighton in November after another technician raved on about them. Double sausage & egg mc muffin with a hashbrown is the way for me. Only they're about 800 calories or something??? Once a month jobbie I'm afraid!

Unless the government announces that we should all pop out and get one because there might be a shortage.... then I'll stuff my face til I'm sick and have shat myself.

That'll be the 47% of your RDA of salt = 2.3 grams of salt in one of those bad boys

my views are. we are now paying for what Thatchers government done. Labour just made things considerably worse by not keeping the purse strings tight.

Labour = spend, spend, spend

Tories = sell, sell, sell

Liberals = we do what we are told by the other parties

the biggest problem with all political parties are that they employ people who haven't a clue how to do their job as these people are MP's first and foremost. so MP's rely on supposed experts to tell them. the problem with that is the MP's can only make an educated guess as to whether the answers are correct or not.

So how come a serious accident analysis thread can be closed down at the mention of trees, yet somehow somosas and petrol panic buying stands proud?

Must be a complex place in mod world.

Phil's the man to speak to about it

re: the trees & accident analysis lockdown, it's a very sensitive topic since the discussion centered around one of our own members, and also because Andrew's family could potentially read very upsetting comments.

Think it's a French company.

I had to fill up with diesel yesterday and had to go to 3 garages til I found some diesel. I was doing my usual fill as I have a 54 mile round trip to work.
