Omg

"We made some changes to McVitie's Penguin and Club earlier this year, where we are using a chocolate flavour coating with cocoa mass, rather than a chocolate coating. Sensory testing with consumers shows the new coatings deliver the same great taste as the originals," the McVitie's owner, Pladis, said in a statement.
Club's classic advertising slogan citing its chocolate content is no longer in use, replaced by: "If you like a lot of biscuit in your break, join our Club."

Southern Comfort is free on Tubi. Never realised just how many times Walter Hill has had a hand in movies I’ve watched.

Silhouette of a man holding a knife with a rifle slung over his back. He is standing shin deep in the water of a bayou with his reflection mirrored. Trees are faintly visible and the sun is overhead giving off a pale light. The mood is oppressive.

Not since "Deliverance" ...
It's the land of hospitality... unless you don't belong there.

Of course women don't like the cybertruck.

Women only want one thing and that's a floating caravan in the Thames estuary.

The dangers Heavy Metal music!

The foreshadowing that rockets will play a key part in the resolution.

Love how the kids solve it all without grownups.

The people in this article will probably be the same type of people who complain that kids don’t play outside anymore

Fancy that! Someone employed at a stately home, reporting seeing a ghost on the premises of that stately home, when organised ghost tours are about to start next week at that very same stately home.

The Gate is so much fun. Still the best cut/splice in vfx when they split into little demons.

i went back as I was so bad the kids ran out of insults and I kept try to score a goal.

I imagine defusing a bomb is less stressful.

I needed 3 attempts! Can YOU kick the ball back?

I’ll not really, I promise. It is extremely cool and has me looking at wall space for which size I could get.

On an overdue listening spree of her stuff. It’s very good and helping!

Hiding under a blanket being ill and letting Grouper wash over my ears as I do my best not to go on a shopping spree of her stuff on Discogs.

Not listened to Grouper? You really should give her a listen but I’m not your dad so it’s up to you.

I think I’ve used that (or something similar) for sinusitis. I’ll check the cupboards to see if we have anything. Cheers!

Oooo I’m pleased to read that. It’s been on my list since it was first released but constantly pushed down by other things. Need to sort that!

Swapping sectors has probably saved my sanity. I really tried to view the interview process as making sure that they are right for me as much as I am right for them. You’ll have loads of transferable skills I’m sure and the knowledge can always be taught.
