  • Anthony Coulson, general manager at the company’s chocolate refinery and bakery in Stockport, said the teatime staple was originally meant to be eaten with the chocolate-covered side facing down.

    Who’s eating chocolate digestives at tea time?

    It’s the world’s most incredible debate

    Wrong

    “Now up until then I’d always eaten it the other way round…You can do it exactly how you want to do it.

    Panic over!




  • It was good, very much enjoyed having a long weekend!

    I went for a run on Saturday after totally failed the previous Sunday due to my shins hurting, and it was awful, only managed 2K at a very slow pace and had to stop, so I think I’m going to have to pack the running in for a bit until my lower legs recover. I’ve since joined the local gym to try and stay somewhat healthy, having done upper body on Monday and then lower yesterday (Wednesday) and now I’m absolutetly wrecking; I can barely move!

    Sunday my Dad came over, like he normally does every Sunday for dinner. The previous week he said he was going to bring a leg of lamb over, so I’d asked him to come over much ealier so there’s time to cook it, except he came over at 17:30, and the lamb took over 2 hours to cook, so it was 20:30 by the time we actually sat down to eat. Luckily both the kids didn’t seem to mind and weren’t over tired, but it was still a little frustrating that he came over so late, especially as I was waiting around all afternoon for him to turn up.

    I’ve been watching The White Lotus (on season 3 right now) and also The Long Way Up, where Ewan McGreggor and his mate Charlie travel up from South America to Los Angeles on electric bikes.












  • Yeah. I visit every now and again and the sub is definitely divided.

    Posts about immigrants being convicted of rape seem to disproportionately get posted and quickly upvoted, with half the comments being anti immigration (“I’m left wing but…”) and the other half wondering what’s happened to the sub and questioning why such posts keep getting upvoted.

    The mods step in and remove tonnes of comments and people complain about how it’s a left wing authoritarian shit hole.

    It’s like it’s been taken over the past couple of years with half the user base wondering what the hell is going on.

    That said I’ve never found it a particularly good sub, for years every comment was just the same anti Brexit moaning (I’m saying this as someone who strongly wanted to remain) and it was just constant doom and gloom.
