    cucumber waters pretty refreshing.chop it up,add to big jug or bottle of water.good way to get vitamins and minereals in you and apparently more hydrating than normal water.a cucumber at 54 pence lasts me a week.you can get two to 3 refills per few slices of cucumber.

    Miscalculated when ordering my chinese tonight and didn't spend enough to get a free bag of prawn crackers.

    Was * gutted when it arrived, chicken curry from the chinese without prawn crackers is a pointless food.

    I have had a few rants about the ubiquity of avocado to my missus and mates. Now, don't get me wrong, I like a bit of guacamole with my fajitas, but this thing is everywhere. What's more, it is isn't just avocado, or guacamole or whatever, it is 'smashed' avocado! What the * are you smashing it with? It's a fruit ya hipster * and it tastes weird on toast. It's also all over your beard too.
    Avocados are grand, but as soon as I walk into a place that has it all over the menu, I am walking out. Those places usually serve drinks in things I normally keep jam in as well, and the food never comes on a plate, but a flowerpot, or toadstool or bicycle wheel or something that was designed for the purpose it is being used. This sort of thing.

    WHenever we get them they end up in the pres for days then get thrown out, can usually substitute the free bag for a free can of coke so dont know why we even get them

    That's nae good mate, you need to eat them fresh. Otherwise they go all stale and chewy.

    You're supposed to scoop your rice and curry sauce up into them. Maybe get a couple of chips in there too. Lovely.

    All food is pointless. It should come in pill form, or a nutrient paste, like in sci-fi films.
