    Well done sexyshark :D. At least it's not as bad as putting a handful of what you think is almond flakes, into your mouth, then start chewing...Only to find out they were garlic flakes :eek:. The DW heard the bleurgh sound from the other room come rushing in, then when I told her what had happened, she wouldn't stop laughing. I think somebody's going on the naughty list, don't you ;). Trust me everyone, it's not a taste extravaganza you want to try :rotfl:...Or maybe if your curious, try it on a not so loved relative :p. 'Tis Christmas after all. It'll be the gift that keeps giving :rotfl: :D :rotfl:.
    Off to the car boot later, so will be scouring the streets for shrapnel :A.

    Happy Potting everyone :j.
