With my wife - its a 'habit'. ie: she'd rather have a shiny pair of shoes then a healthy diet.

Bitterbollen, my fave Dutch snack...mmmmmmmmm

Well, you're married to the women - EDUCATE her. Twice if needs be.

Why did I automatically read that in a Newport accent?

Only on CUK are the members able to appropriate a joke at face value, not at all troubled by duality of meaning.

Well said. Your wine should never fight your food, it will lose. So a sweetish white wine with pâté to cut through the fat, and of course Bordeaux is classic with lamb. Especially at Easter, though personally I find the link a bit tasteless.

a la Harry Hill ?

I'd never mix a Mouton Rothschild 45 with foie gras; Deidesheim Riesling Spatlese 1998 would be much better. Some roast lamb will be fine with the Mouton Rothschild.

And you cannot get decent beef over here Mitch, end of story.

You can around our neck of the woods. There's a chap around the corner with a small herd of Herefords who sells his beef to one or two butchers in the area.

I thought you would say that! I would never mix Dairylee with Vimto! You almost fell for it!

Class!

Does Holland still have those takeaway snack places you can smell from a good mile or two away?

You mean FEBO?
Mankind’s greatest crime against hygiene and public decency. Truly shocking.

Cheap toothpaste

That's so wrong!

I agree. No matter what else you put in your mouth, you want to know that your toothpaste is 'quality'.

Mich married a Chav, he was expecting a Mouton Rothschild 45 and some Foie Gras pate as a starter, but he got Dairylee slices and a can of Vimto. Still he can be sure of getting his teeth clean afterwards.

Yes. Agent called offering very vague job description on condition I provide phone numbers and names of 4 referees. I am now looking for that bastard who disallowed my try last weekend; well, the agent asked for referees, so he’ll get them.

Good one.

Give him Kim Milton as well. Invent the rest of the details.
