Instant coffee. It's quick, no doubt about that, but it's not instant. You have to wait to boil the kettle and all.

The PX Fibonacci sale, not all things are Fibonacci numbers any more and many things do not conform to the "everything £x" sub-sections if you list high to low!

Whats more, a load of stuff I've been looking at went up today, it is as if they monitor my posts and window shopping. 👿

Anyone got the phone number for the interweb police? 😆

Buccaneer

You *could* be a pirate and live in one though. There was one called the Ambassador which I thought was taking the piss.

"Welcome to our country, Ambassador, let us show you to your accommodation.."

The PX Fibonacci sale

Yes, I searched for fibbonacis and they didn't have any, full price or on sale.

If I stayed in a caravan named 'Ambassador', I'd expect this:

I've never entered an Ambassador. I have spent time inside a Maestro though.

Cars with fast names. Suzuki "Swift" my eye, I don't think I've ever seen one going over 20mph.

Black people or white people for that matter, more like different shades of pink and brown.

Foie gras, definitely no gras(s) in it.

Decency prevents me from sharing that information.

That might have been accurate.

Reminds me of my favourite car game when we're bored. The aim is to prefix any caravan you see with the word, "@r$e". Minutes of fun...

the thread is 'Things that aren't what they say they are' - are you suggesting you don't think he's really your son? 🙂

Believe me, I have questioned that a few times 😀 over the last few months. Someone replaced the adorable baby with a border collie / human hybrid.

The pint is one of the few things that is actually smaller in the good old US of A than it is in the UK , 16fl oz vs 20fl oz.

'Gourmet Burgers' with the claim that they make their burgers with 100% beef and nothing else. Yep - thats gourmet cooking through and through - take a pretty mundane ingredient, add nothing to it, then serve. Your Michelin Star is in the post.
