Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

This is English writing at its funniest. Will Self's surreal vision of England really kills me. Its all in the detail. Some of his decriptions about very pedestrian things just make me laugh whilst one can only envy his power with words. For people who like reading the thesauras this is a dream come true.
