Anyone with an ounce of sense would have realised that was written with tongue firmly in cheek. Yes, I’m aware that American food consists of more than the above mentioned junk food. I just get heartily sick of people not realising that British food consists of more than curry and fish and chips. We have some of the finest chefs and best restaurants in the world. Frankly, I couldn’t give a toss about Bush if you could guys could only find some way of confining his monumental fuck-ups to your own country, and as a republican (in the anti-royal sense) I care even less about the queen, but it seems to me that taking your own chefs to someone else’s home to cook for you is a studied insult in any circumstances.
I certainly hope he didn’t take his own chefs to Number 10. Nobody should upset the delectable Nigella.
Thanks Aslyum. I feel bad I ever brought this up. Next time I’ll keep my feelings and fears to myself.
Eh, I don’t even think British food is bad Jennyrosity, it was just a joke.
The transport planes landing in the US are potentially dangerous? Lies. It is Bush propoganda so no one can see the bodies returning.
perhaps i’m the only Gardener her, But I’ve Cultivated bonsai trees for over 8 yrs now… Some of my trees, however are older than me. As for someone caring to a garden as old as the one at Buckingham. I’d be in a towering fit if someone did that kind of damage to it. FYI Plants ARE replaceable, howver long cultivated and sculpted plants are NOT. For anyone Who is concerned with price, The Bonsai at the national Arboretum are insured for over a million dollars apiece.
Uh, barbeque (the word and the technique) comes from the West Indies, and was adopted as an english word in the 17th century – and Cajun cuisine came to Louisiana by way of Nova Scotia.
You get to keep American Cheese, though.
Sir, I suggest you retract this foul slur on a fine and upstanding woman, or you shall be feeling the back of my glove.
Um, no. There’s nothing wrong with sharing your feelings and fears, but you were trying to manipulate other people’s feelings in an attempt to get them to agree with your opinions and fears, as opposed to giving legitimate reasons for people to do so.
And in case you missed it I agree that the war is unjustified (and illegal for that matter), I was taking issue with the way that you were trying to get people to agree with that point of view. This ain’t guilt trip night on the net, so get off your fucking high horse.
Aww, jjimm - I’m touched.
Well, it’s been a couple of days–any more articles on this alleged atrocity to Her Majesty’s Flowers and Trees and Birds?
They’re still dead and/or spooked?
