    I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]

      Yes but they are billed to be something amazing - but when it comes to it cavier can be quite salty and champagne can be a bit harsh

          So it would seem that it has always been a disappointment to go up the oxo tower....

              It's a quote from Christopher Hitchens. “The four most over-rated things in life are champagne, lobster, anal sex and picnics."

                  Never tried caviar but certainly true about 1 and 3.
                  PS 3 not in receiving mode.
                  PPS By "not in receiving mode" meant never tried it not that it's not disappointing.

                      The lady sitting next to me at ClientCo has just told her neighbour how she got taken up the oxo tower on Friday - apparently it was amazing and she loved it, and you should do it if you get a chance.
