The Middlesbrough episodes of Come Dine With Me aired last week. I still haven't got round to watching them yet. I don't know if i can bring myself to.

Knowing that everyone on there has in some way been deemed more credible than myself it'll be all the more galling when they all turn out to be pricks....probably.

Also i have a bad feeling someone will of made a Parmo (a variation of chicken in breadcrumbs, for those not in the know) A local dish vastly over rated by the people of Middlesbrough, who try to force it upon all outsiders much to my embarassment. It's acceptable take away at best. There's a reason why it hasn't caught on. Nor but mate, "Jeff the chef" is bringing it to the masses. mmm is he?

I keep getting messages about casting for different parts of the country and i'm tempted to do a fake application posing as a predicatable generic oddball the likes of which you often see on the show. Just to prove my theory that it takes a certain type of prick to make it through. I'll record the phone interview and post it on here.

Strictly For His N*****?

Surely the very fact that i found this lying around our house undermines the title of the CD.



Wonder what happens if you listen to it.

Hot Food

It took a lot of willpower but somehow i managed to drive past this sign without pulling over.

More reviews

Payday rolls round again and i've just made some routine media purchases off play.com

Once again i let myself get sidetracked looking at knackers user reviews.

I've previously referenced "Horrorboyharribo" who posted an insightful account of the Peter Kay "Live at the top of the tower" DVD. Well i found an even worse one he did for "live at the Bolton Albert Halls"...

"peter kay is my favourite comedian and he always will be pretty soon i will own every dvd of his and I will treasure them untill i die and seriously... GARLIC BREAD!! THE BEST BIT of this dvd is when they talk about CONNIE'S funeral. i love it!!!!! I watch this dvd with my dad like once a month and continiously soil my self monthly!!!!"

Nuts. Here's one he did for Michael McIntyre's "Live and laughing".....

"this man is hilarious and he a bright comedian and if youre a fan of pure sillyness buy this, you can take my word that youll chuckle and pah! youll slide of your chair choking. no juice, 'yes madam his name is adolf."

Quite a statement.

I can't recall seeing a useful review yet. I remember buying a tent last year from Argos and agonising over which one to go with. The one i chose varied in rating with some customers giving it 5 stars and others giving it 1 star accompanied by a diatribe about it's inadequecies. How do you know who to trust?

The tent remains in the boot of my car having never been used. Hopefully i'll get a chance to/bother to in the coming months. I'll be sure to post my review.
