don't we all!!

LaDiDaDi · 02/04/2009 09:15

I like Paula this year.
Debra looks older than 24!

Notalone · 02/04/2009 11:12

Ladidadi - I would definitely shag Rocky. He may be 10 years younger than me but he is a little bit gorgeous. Oooh young man!

jalopy · 02/04/2009 12:41

Can't stand James - obviously full of drivel and dribble.

PlumBumMum · 02/04/2009 13:06

Ahh Jalopy you couldn't have hurt me anymore if you'd have told me my cat was dead

ItsMargotBeauregarde · 02/04/2009 13:44

Rocky is 17 yrs younger than me and I find him attractive. That's quite shocking. Normally 21 yr olds don't even register on my lustometre. He should never have been kicked off. Bloody travesty.

Fimbo · 02/04/2009 13:47

It is wrong to have a crush on Adrian Chiles isn't it

ItsMargotBeauregarde · 02/04/2009 13:49

is he the geeky girl's crumpet?

TrillianEAstraEgg · 02/04/2009 15:09

No Margot. How dare you accuse us geeky girls of such bad taste? I am a geeky girl and I definitely do not think he is crumpet!

LaDiDaDi · 02/04/2009 16:21

Well Margot, tbh , he's the second 21year old I've noticed in the past week. I commented to a colleague about how attractive a medical student was and I think she thought I'd gone mad.

Appsrently Yasmeena's (sp) restaurant is in Caversham, in Reading. I really must book and have soggy tomato baguette the bruschetta

braveandcrazy · 02/04/2009 17:32

Ermm that was meant to be crossed out - didn't work obviously

MamaHobgoblin · 02/04/2009 18:48

Really, Braveandcrazy? Which one? (I live not a million miles away.) It'd be worth it for a laff.

Or maybe not.

Mya Lacarte

Flibbertyjibbet · 02/04/2009 23:12

From that website:

'Being a local produce restaurant, your home grown fruit and veg is invaluable to us. We know some of you harvest far more than is possible to palm off to friends and family. Mya Lacarte wants your surplus. For every 10 kilos of produce we will give you a Mya Daily meal for 2 excluding drinks. Your Mya Daily is redeemable from 12 to 7pm Monday through to Friday. The produce must be grown locally and be of some use in the Mya kitchens. Other than these, there are no criteria, just bring it in or call us'.

Is it just me or is that just wierdly cheeky? Bring me 10kg of fresh seasonal produce for me to make lots of profit from, and I'll give you a voucher to come and eat one of my cheaper things - but don't think your grubby allotment persons hands can come in at times when you might WANT a meal out, you'll jolly well come when I tell you in case your grubby allotment hands take up a table at a busy time.

And the name... 'mya lacarte' 'My A la carte' like 'My travel' bit corny.

And as for all that woffly woffle about how they all cycle to work and switch all the lights off. Yawn.

spenthen · 03/04/2009 10:17

Can I just add, from the same website:

"Our customers rarely choose from the same menu twice".

Mmmmmmm, she might want to re-word that now!

FfreckleFface · 03/04/2009 12:14

Sorry, brief thread hijak - Mamahobgoblin, have added to the local thread, arranging a meet-up at Benson Waterfront one morning next week. Would be great if you can make it.

MrsJamin · 03/04/2009 14:25

It's got a pretty good reputation in Reading really. I think Yasmina will go far in the apprentice, at the end of the day, she knew how to win the task - she knew she wouldn't have to try and get repeat business. She led the team amazingly well - they were very efficient.

extremelychocolateymilkroll · 04/04/2009 17:15

Shame Rocky went but Alan Sugar seems to be changing this year. In the past he has kept people because of potential in spite of them cocking up a task - Michael Sophocles - and that used to wind me up. Now he seems to be choosing according to performance in the task - and it's still winding me up - as I now think he should look at potential.

thumbbunny · 04/04/2009 17:23

can't please some people, hey!

extremelychocolateymilkroll · 04/04/2009 17:26

I know, but it probably has something to do with Sophocles being such a twat and Rocky being quite sweet and really seeming to have potential - so it's quite logical really.

MrsY · 05/04/2009 20:39

Not sure I read Rocky as being sweet...

extremelychocolateymilkroll · 06/04/2009 12:14

I thought he came across as a nice guy - esp on You're Fired. I've just listened to the iv he did on R5 and apparently they had to do a themed party - which the girls somehow got away with. Just goes to show how the editing affects the way you view the people. They must have edited You're Fired as well as when Greg Wallace brought up how the theme idea was a disaster Rocky appears to say nothing.

jumpingbeans · 06/04/2009 12:23

Can anyone tell me, why, when suralan tells someone "your fired" they say " thank you sir alan, now i have been fire a few times during my working life and i don't ever remember saying thankyou

thumbbunny · 06/04/2009 23:20

wasn't the girls' "theme" Mediterranean?

JB: I think they are told to say that so that they don't look like surly teenagers being sent to bed early.
