If they did it'd be served with mash, rice, polenta and a nice side of 4 slices of white bread.

I used to work for a company that sold food to the prison service. Seeing what they bought was the most effective deterrent there could be.

That said, there are plenty of times I've happily had lasagna, chips and peas in crappy pubs.

I've just googled Mrs Hinch rather than click the link in the URL - because fuck tabloid clickbait - and seen her described as "cleaning mad", "cleaning sensation" and something about "cleaning hacks".

Is "cleaning" some euphemism I'm not cool enough to get?

here's a great cleaning hack - BUY TONS OF CHEMICALS.

Yeah, it's literally just a woman who keeps her house nice and clean.

Haaang on is this the influencer lady that is getting flak for using lots of chemicals and taking photos with lots of filters and people have been shaming her with photos of her in a past life as she was a slightly chubby office worker?

I find that baffling given all influencers use filters/photoshop and have lots of surgery to the point they all look interchangeable and their entire job is to drive needless consumption.

I saw a tweet recently where it turned out a lot of them are renting studios that look like private jets to take photos of their 'rich' lifestyles.

If I were a rich man I'd travel on a Ryanair Boeing rather than a private jet, as those things seem to crash a lot. I'd probably spend the rest of my time biddy biddy bumming.

Fiddler on the Roof remake takes some liberties with the original script.

spice and liquor together was gut witchcraft.

Hmm, Halloween-themed booze/chilli condiment idea?

I thought the biddy biddy would have made it clear that that was the joke.

I wonder how Topol flies? I imagine he must have trouble buying Ryanair tickets online with that name.

Ah. I only know the first line. I thought you were just a shameless gerontophile.

I like old women, but I couldn't bum a whole one.[nb]If I were a better writer I'd have worded this in a way which acknowledged the fact that there were two biddies and used hole instead of whole. But I'm not a better writer, and "I couldn't bum a hole two" is neither elegant nor funny. [/nb]

People go fucking nuts for Zoflora. Quite the marketing triumph.

Do people really have serious preferences on cleaning stuff? I just get lidl's kitchen/bathroom stuff 'cos it's cheap and does the job. They only time I've ever took note was when I bought some flash and it was annoyingly smeary.

I don't, but in the domestic corners of the internet (Pinterest and similar) people are bonkers for Zoflora I SPRAY IT EVERYWHERE OMG ITS THE BEST SMELL SO NICE KILL ALL GERMIES

I don't use it, I get cheap non-bleach stuff online cos we have a septic tank, but I used to buy whatever Aldi offered.

Yeah I tend to use non bleach 'cos I get it everywhere and don't want pink spots on my tshirts. I didn't know you weren't supposed to use bleach with septics, what do you put down the bog?

touchingcloth

This stuff.

I think you can put a bit of bleach down with a septic tank, but they rely on bacterial colonies so using too much could turn it into a shit-gathering rather than processing tank.

Local Indian used to give me a free bottle of cocacola with my order, I dont touch the stuff but chuck it straight down the loo making sure to swirl it round,leave for a while then flush - sparkling clean, no limescale etc. Basically has the opposite effect on porcelain to the effect it has on teeth, for some reason.

Dont drink fizzy pop crap as my body is a temple,apart from greasy takeaway curry poppadums and reheated rice mmmm.
