heh Artful, that should always only have been an amuse-bouche before the a la carte

There was a worse product called instant whip.


There was also a dreadful product in a tin that Bob Monkhouse advertised. I think that was even worse.


I expect those damned Eurocrats outlawed them due to their lack of any wholesomeness and kids going hyperactive. Who needs calm kids, and good nutrition anyway.


Creme Anglaise becomes Cream English aka custard.


Whipped and aerated synthetic product will become ice cream again.

Thus far all this is depressingly looking backwards, mainly at how crap things were some time ago, before we discovered alternatives to eating something that had to be liberated from a metal canister.


And we're meant to become 'Global Britain' or some cark like that, as sadly it seems being European wasn't global enough. So we're going to isolate ourselves to claw great deals around the world, whilst showing those a few miles across the channel how much we didn't need them (or their fancy food) stuff.


Maybe we can trading Opium and such likes again, even get Hong Kong back.


I wonder what we can rename 'The Great British Menu', which quite frankly has become somewhat ridiculous already.


And lastly, Pizza Express will become Cheese on Toast Express

... and we have spray on cheese from a can. And any non-spray on cheese will be that dodgy orange colour.

There's a certain amount of hurt being dished out in this rightard renaming scam, like it's a tonic that's meant to be good for you.


And all the while as we loose the joy in life, PMTM is draping her saggy carcass and 'gray hay' bobbed hair over the cover of Vogue. It's fuc1


That said, I've always thought Mayonnaise was due for a fight, so if pushed I'd be ok with straight down Salad Cream.


Lastly, cigarette is due to go. I'm voting for 'Smoking Cylinders'

    • A belated recommendation for Iain and Paul od Oddbods who came to help me with various jobs before Christmas.  Painting ceiling, renewing silicone around bath, repairing a window sill which was almost beyond repair and hanging a large mirror.   Very happy with their work and they are friendly and very reliable and excellent at communicating.  No hesitation in recommending them.
    • I just wanted to post for all my neighbours a recommendation of Niko, the wonderful plumber who works locally. Niko has done work for me over the years, including large and small jobs. He recently replaced four radiators in my house which have helped us really be warm for the first time! I recommend Niko so whole heartedly because (1) he is completely straight forward and will advise you not to do something / a cheaper solution, if that is what is best for you; and (2) he is one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever known. He goes the extra mile to sort out problems, particularly urgent ones.   
    • Scaremongering - there is very little vacant land in East Dulwich available as sites for building 9 storey buildings so this is rather hypothetical. It could even be said the occasional taller, modern building breaks up the monotony of Victorian terraced housing.
    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
