Is it me, or has Daddies sauce got thinner? (Leaves door open for "Well you haven't got thinner" gag) Back in the day when they used to put sauce bottles on tables in cafes instead of selling you a teaspoon full in a sachet for 20p, it seemed to take ages for the sauce to run out of the bottle, sometimes you had to bang on the bottom to get it moving. These days it seems to run out like water. I reckon they've changed the formula to accommodate these newfangled duck fart squirters. | Click to see full-size image. |
 One of my pet irritations is cafes and similar that dish out sauce in sachets. Whether you are charged for it not. Can’t comment on the thickness or otherwise of Daddies because I’m an HP Man. |

I'm not averse to a bit of HP myself Dave.
My biggest gripe about the shachets is not paying for them, (although I'm not partial to that bit) It's the accidental sharing it with the bloke on the next table that bothers me.
I used to quite like Worcester sauce until I found out it's made from fermented anchovies. Yuck!

Ignore the ingredients and savour the flavour. |

Brings to mind the old ditty: "Shake oh shake the ketchup bottle first none'll come then a lot'll"  |

2: It's raining hard, big drops beating a fantastic tattoo on my tin roof. What a wonderful sound for making you appreciate being warm and dry, I think it would be one of the things I'd miss the most if I were to live in a house. | Click to see full-size image. |
 It's coming on to the West facing window, it almost never does that. |

3: I have this wonderful flickering fire. OK, it's not real and I lit it by pressing a button but it reminds me of all the hundreds, perhaps thousands that I have lit in the past and the "flames" are still comforting. | Click to see full-size image. |

5: I have MOTD on iPlayer. (I managed to avoid all the results yesterday so no spoilers please) We are totally spoiled with telly viewing options these days. Once upon a time if you wanted to watch a particular program or follow a series you had to be at home and watch it as it was broadcast, now you can choose what you want to watch and when you want to watch it. | Click to see full-size image. |

Hi Trev. I installed Merlin. It's fabulous, I can't understand why you tried to put me off it. My dad would have absolutely loved it. | Click to see full-size image. |
