FuriousFox46 Posted 11 April 2012 Posted 11 April 2012 I love Nando's, but it's not that great. F&B's shits all over it.
Raw Dykes Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 I'm sure these must have been mentioned, but.... ....are rubbish. A poor man's Bourbon Creams. I tell you this, the people who make these are pissing themselves laughing. They took all the biscuits that were left over from those big tins you get at Christmas, packaged them up nicely, and now they're shafting the general public. They'd slit your throat for a shilling, they would.
CKB Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 I love Nando's, but it's not that great. F&B's shits all over it. Totally agree, it seems to be a major Footballer thing that fans just seem to wank over nowadays and feel cool if they go to Nandos
Zingari Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 Royalty and the whole concept of Royal Blood and breeding etc
AyewJoking Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 Game of thrones. Having rented season 1 on dvd, very average, quite boring. To think my wife wanted to sign up to Sky tv just so she could watch this!
Captain... Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 Royalty and the whole concept of Royal Blood and breeding etc I think it's a shame they don't actually do anything, I have come to the decision I would rather have someone in power through birthright than some of the berks we elect. To be in politics you have to want to be a politician, you have to look at the pack of braying clueless donkeys that sit on the benches of the house of commons with their smug self satisfction and think, I want a piece of that. That is not the kind of person I want running the country, give me Charles or Lizzie over Cameron/Blair/Brown any day of the week.

Good point I think that concept should apply in other walks of life . Footballers should be given places in the team because of who their parents are , not because they want to play or are actually good at it

Zingari Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 I'm glad Dwight Yorke never played for us then. Obviously there would have to be some sort of system similar to royal ascent, where only the eldest male is given a place in the team
AoWW Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 Got this from the library last night for my daughter... seeing as though it's a classic and all. OMG how s**t is this book... it's just rubbish! Maybe I've been spoilt with good children's books for my daughter (Sharing a Shell, Monkey Puzzle, The Gruffalo, Octonauts, Winnie the Witch, Maisy, Meg and Mog, Tiger Who came to tea... etc. etc.). But this book is just awful, the story is lame, the illustrations look like they're from some communist school book from the 1950's, I managed to get 4 pages in before my daughter literally told me to stop reading and took the book from my hands. And she loves books and being read to... How is this a 'Classic'? I agree 100% - I've never really seen the appeal of this 'undisputed classic'. How old is mini-Phube, now? To add to your list of 'loved books' can I suggest you look at the following if you haven't already: anything by Giles Andreae, eg Giraffes can't dance, Commotion in the Ocean, Rumble in the jungle, etc, and books by Emily Gravett, too, eg Meerkat Mail. I'd also recommend, if you can find them, Dear Greenpeace by Simon James, Can you see a little bear by James Mayhew and Mixed Up Fairy Tales by Nick Sharratt. Yes, I do have a bit of a 'thing' about children's literature! Also, didn't you once say you sometimes holiday in North Norfolk? If so, you really ought to try to visit the Norfolk Children's Book Centre http://www.ncbc.co.uk/NCBC/Home.html it's much better in reality than it looks on the website, is very child-friendly, provides copious cups of tea and coffee for Mum and Dad, and has more stock than you could possibly imagine!
Daggers Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 I see your WIld Things book and raise you by Julia's latest crap effort... Where she takes The Highwayman poem, changes it to a rat and fails to credit any of her work to Alfred Noyes. The shittest piece of plagiarism in your local book store.

Ah, you see I haven't read that one but, I agree, it sounds crap. Used to really rate Julia Donaldson but I feel she's run out of ideas recently and is starting to produce generic shite. Obviously she's now completely run out of ideas and is just nicking other people's poems to 'adapt'.
Daggers Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 But I agree, the Wild Things is a pile of over-rated pish and an utterly shite film.

She's now just over 2 and 1/2... lovely age! And thanks for the recommendations, I'll look into them. At the minute she loves Winnie the Witch. We're spending Christmas in South Walsham this year... but we tend to travel a lot whilst there will try to check it out. I see your WIld Things book and raise you by Julia's latest crap effort... Where she takes The Highwayman poem, changes it to a rat and fails to credit any of her work to Alfred Noyes. The shittest piece of plagiarism in your local book store. See I love most of her stuff, as mentioned Monkey Puzzle and Sharing a Shell are brilliant... but I read this one and god it's rubbish... hard to get the rhythm right whilst reading and my little'un just got bored... Another thing we can agree on...

Another thing we can agree on... :thumbsup: Try "Dirty Beasts" by Roald Dahl. FoxyJr is a big fan of it at the moment and he's around the same age. Ricky fvcking Gervais. He's about as funny as being told you're wife's given you AIDS.
lcfcadam Posted 12 April 2012 Posted 12 April 2012 But I agree, the Wild Things is a pile of over-rated pish and an utterly shite film. Never read the book, enjoyed the film greatly.
Daggers Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 Finding out which colour of car (which would be crap for doing the school run) goes fastest. Finding out how many horses can fall over a hedge while Scouse scum puke all around you.
jonthefox Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 I love Nando's, but it's not that great. F&B's shits all over it. Yep. Nando's is just a posh maryland chicken.
Finnegan Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 I've never read the book but the Wild Things film is superb and if you disagree you're *****.
Phube Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 I've never read the book but the Wild Things film is superb and if you disagree you're *****. Not seen it yet... but I'm curious as to how they've made a very poor, 3 min story into a 'superb' 1hr 40 min film?
Zingari Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 Special K I still can't get into the little red dress !
Finnegan Posted 14 April 2012 Posted 14 April 2012 Special K I still can't get into the little red dress ! Try offering her flowers instead, cereal's not very romantic.
