  1. You could argue, however that excessive eating can become an addiction, in the same way that drugs, smoking, alcohol and gambling can.
  2. Talk us through the caramelised onions bit. I'm all ears.
  3. If that is a one off shift, I don't see the problem. Our staff group recently agreed to work 3 x 12 hour shifts a week, giving them 4 days off per week. Provided staff are consulted I don't have a problem with this.
  4. Missing meals on a regular basis, particularly breakfast, is counter-productive as your body thinks there is a famine on and starts saving/ producing fat. At least that's what I heard.
  5. No fun for you. Even less fun for the family below.
  6. How much difference does a diet drink make to a big mac meal? I'm not convinced the choice of beverage is a significant factor in the morbidly obese.
  7. I think I've heard him on the subject on Radio Scotland. A deeply unpleasant individual.
  8. St Andrews is a bonny place, but you'd be hard pushed to hear a Fife accent.
  9. I spent a lot of time on mine a few years back and recently have been entering the information on Ancestry - just under 1,800 people. It has become a bit of an obsession again. My latest thing has been uploading transcriptions of Birth, Death and Marriage Certificates, which is nearly complete. Planning to do the same with Census Returns next.
  10. Really felt sorry for Nicola today, she looked absolutely drained. Between dealing with a pandemic and a sleazy selfish f**k...
  11. Acht Well. Rye bread is the best accompaniment to Polish food but you can thank me later
  12. Mind reading Irving Welsh's Filth and wincing at the use of this word to describe uniformed polis by the main character. Can't remember if the film glossed over this or not. I think it acknowledged the polis's Jamboness and left it at that. I do know that the character in film wasn't anywhere close to being as reprehensible as the one in the book.
  13. He might have came too early. Phnaaarrr Apologies... (1-4-6-0)
  14. The Trainspotting scene was what sprung to mind for me as well. Other films with disturbing scenes that didn't put me off the end product were Clockwork Orange and Taxi Driver.
  15. Would one scene that made you feel uncomfortable put you off an entire series?
  16. James McFadden is a good lad. He can hit a 45 yarder into the roof of the net in Paris as often as he wants as far as I'm concerned.
  17. I really should watch Hertz more often. They are almost always terrible every time I see them, although clearly they are half decent given their lofty league position.
