@YYURYYUCICYYUR4ME now I really really want a Lucky Bag, with a sherbet dip inside 🥺

My thoughts too. I never managed to make the lollipop last. Usually had to tip the sherbet into my mouthConfused

By posting cryptic and random threads on MN, obviously.

I've taken early retirement, so it's all good. I don't have to think about what it was any more. In fact, I've forgotten already.

I won it in a raffle.

Why are so many people pretending to be confused? OP is clearly talking (or rather not talking) about Fight Club.

I got tapped up by a chap in a trench coat, trilby and dark glasses while I was sitting on a park bench feeding ducks.

I love it but I do love getting home, shutting the door and taking my bra off.

Well I haven't seen it so wouldn't know that's what the OP is (or isn't) talking about.

I had to cook 17 courses in 3 hours and have a budget of £2 per head. Once I proved I could do that I just had to make a 12 layer cake, 78 doughnuts, an ice cream statue and a show stopped based on a squirrel named Gerald the saved the lives of orphans in a bus crash.

After that there was a trial by ordeal with Greg Wallace, I signed the nda and I was in.
