Debate House Prices

    I've got some really weird Icelandic chocolate I got in an odd Danish shop in Hammersmith. It claims to be particularly authentic, same wrapper since the 1930's bla bla.

    I just picked it up because it was chocolate, and I fancied a bit. :D

    Off for a bit more...

    Let us know if you find anywhere nice, with humour. Maybe we can migrate en masse - friendly face and all that.

    Any more ideas?

    Sorry, I seem to keep interrupting. Slow typist, sorry. :o

    Not as slow as me....especially when I lose my post like I've just done.:mad:

    I was saying, I find the Ford Transit Forum very friendly....


    http://fordtransit.org/forum/

    ....but I can see that might have limited appeal. :o

    The same is probably true of:
    http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/forum114/

    which can lack a certain je ne sais quoi...:rolleyes:

    Then there's http://www.landscapejuicenetwork.com/ which sounds promising, but, well it's gardening again really, but with a lot of power tools featuring strongly.

    Anyway, I have found this new local site for people with dogs, so I might give that a try, now I have the land....

    http://www.world-of-dogging.com/devon

    I will keep you posted on that one.:D

    I have pretty much nothing left apart from some caramel barrels and toffee things. Don't like them. I will eat them of course though :D
