    7.5 hours in work and I typed for less than 2.5 hours. Everything else was admin and phone calls... and checking in on here

    The management want to put their own admin figures in :eek: :eek: so not knowing what we do, they're going to make it up as they go along :mad:

    I finished your thought for you :p;) :rotfl:

    Just to try to catch you out, the Chinese meals are still £2.00 each in M but the Indian meals are now £2.49 each (apart from the Chicken Tikka Masala that continues at £1.90). A few price increases to be aware of - mainly in the frozen section (soon to be) ex Tvs M.

    Other items to be added, yes! - more, later.

    Got this track (that I like!) in my head - don't know why, but I have:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kth-iMdhjrw

    Really I think they should blank the word "pregnant" in the lyrics though. They did that with a song by Notorious B.I.G. - for over 12 years I thought he was saying something far, far, far worse - so the neurotypicals (excluding those who have brain conditions that are not typical) ought to be consistent and do that. And for those who argue that it is about context - my riposte is that I am context-blind:p. Therefore the fact (or not) that it is, allegedly, "in context" - or more to the point that, in the Notorious song it isn't - if that is the suggestion or is what I am supposed to believe - I dispute it and it does not reduce the likelihood of causing offence to me:p:p. Onto a different point;) - rap music always seems to be more heavily censored (and, even then, totally ineffectively or entirely counter-productively) than any other genre (not just confined to music genres) and it merely reflects, to my mind, a discriminatory and unfair approach that I find rationally-offensive, carrying within it overtones of racism, sexism and ageism, as well as numerous other prejudices (on the part of the people or organisations doing the 'censorship').

    Ooh - something got me on my high-horse there. Rant, rant, rant:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.


    Anyway - Morries results to appear somewhere, in some way, later (just waiting like chips for price comparison systems to update;)) and I suppose you get warts and all with me (the 'money-saving' and the 'other things'). Thank you!

    Simply highlight and copy the relevant comparison while on the APG site and then paste into a post here. (Obviously need to have two browsers (screens?) open at once.)
