    The kids keep asking (they always fall for it) "How long is tea?"
    My 2 standard answers are "about 10 inches" or "about as long as the plate" !!


    I always use Eyes bigger than your belly to my daughter, but it got shortened to Eyes bigger than belly (Yorkshire roots again). And now I'm getting down with the kids (No indiscretion intended), it has been shortened even more to text speak. So I now use, as does daughter to me ..... EBTB !!!

    Wish they would hurry up surely all they do is press button on a pc :) or is there a person typing them all in :rotfl::rotfl:

    Who knows. I always wonder why it takes 24 hours. Maybe they're only armed with an abacus and a morse code machine... :D

    Slightly off topic (although what is on topic?!)

    Sada do Chosen by You smoothies in 750ml bottles for £1.... i thought they were smaller than the Innocent ones at £2 but they are the same size and they are lush, defintely as good as the Innocent ones but slightly less thick. Mr T are doing them at £3.09 atm :eek::eek::eek:

    For £1 they are a bargain and lots of 5 a day for us too lazy to get them elsewhere!

    I do pride myself on my randomness!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I've been buying these for my husband since Innocents changed their pack size from 1 litre down to 750ml but increased their pricing!

    Most important (according to my husband) is that they count as 2 of your 5 a day and not 1 - as many of the 'smoothies' you see only count as 1.

    They are also fine to put on a targetted APG against anywhere because they come up as N/A
    The end is nigh
