Someone on a thread the other day said you can get cherry jaffa cakes Polish speciality shops apparently... just need to find one and get me there Grin

KinNora · 11/02/2013 16:03

Cherry Jaffa cakes ? Oh my god, I never knew such things existed, imagine how gorgeous they must be.

mercury7 · 11/02/2013 16:04

KinNora · 11/02/2013 16:05

mercury7 · 11/02/2013 16:05

cherry?
Hmm cherry often tastes medicinal?

KinNora · 11/02/2013 16:07

Nah, I love cherry flavoured stuff, actually I'd quite like a Cherryade right now.

NcNcNcNc · 11/02/2013 16:08

Think I need me a vege cookbook, especially one that uses cherry jaffa cakes as ingredients Grin

VoiceofUnreason · 11/02/2013 16:09

I am rather partial to Cherry Tango. But it's not as nice as Corona Cherryade that I used to have when I was ickle.

lulubellaboozle · 11/02/2013 16:12

oooooh I've tried the new choccy digestives and they are yum!

Western you and LM enjoy celebrating with veggie food and your sexy basque Wink all sounds good to me x

FWIW, I try to stay out of the disagreements on here, I have enough stress elsewhere, and I come to this thread for support and some laughs and a smile.

BUT, here's my view - the beauty of this thread is that mostly you can bear your inner thoughts, angst and concerns. I know I post stuff on here that I would not say or admit to in RL, it has been on many occasions a safety valve. It is quite possible therefore, if other people use it in the same way that we can all get a one dimensional view of each other and see traits in each other magnified, in a way that is not really true to RL. I just think we all need to be aware of that.

If you post on here, by default you are inviting others to comments, express an opinion and sometimes challenge you. That should be a good thing, it should always be done nicely and in a caring,friendly way. Once you have your say, if someone doesn't accept your view of them or their behaviour then you can discuss it but at some stage everyone has to accept that we are entitled to our own opinion and view and if those don't match up with our own ones then let it go gracefully and move forward.

None of us has "problems" in a negative sense, while I have, but he's a knob and he's my STBXH Grin

well not while, hard to type accurately whilst stuffing the digestives in

VoiceofUnreason · 11/02/2013 16:15

Hello Bant!

lulubellaboozle · 11/02/2013 16:15

Bant have a choccy digestive and come into the darkened room, Western has her basque on Wink

lulubellaboozle · 11/02/2013 16:16

just realised how sleazy that sounded, apologies Grin

Bant · 11/02/2013 16:17

oooh basques. Haven't seen one of them in years

Bant · 11/02/2013 16:20

It's a very strange experience reading through the last few pages and not actually being on the receiving end of it. Ho hum.

Everyone calm down, it's a dating thread. Let's talk about dating. Who's dating soon? I decided to message a couple of (the 10 or so) women in Budapest who didn't look like Heidi's Grandpapa to see if they could give me hints on places to go in BP. One replied, but had no photo, so we'll see if she is in fact one of the stunning locals or looks like a goatherder.

MsCellophane · 11/02/2013 16:21

Cherry jaffa cakes??? How?? Where?? I think I need them

KinNora · 11/02/2013 16:28

Asda, apparently, MsC

Voice, one of the very best things about Scotland is the marvellous range of artificially flavoured pop, Barrs Cherryade, Limeade and Pineappleade being notable examples.

Hello Bant !

PinkPeanuts · 11/02/2013 16:33

Hello all

Guess who FINALLY went on a date last night! Grin

lulubellaboozle · 11/02/2013 16:33

Pineappleade? cherry jaffa cakes? to think I was content with a Peanut Butter Kitkat Chunky being the epitome of indulgence ....Hmm
