There's always those darn orange cartons, just for a bit of a change.
Zizka - I think I'd rather my weevils than your maggots! If they'd been maggots I don't think I'd have been half as calm and collected as I was when I took the rice back!
I do feel somewhat out of the milk debate though - drinking milk makes me sick, so I don't touch the stuff. Mind you, when I was a kid we used to have to drink a third of a pint of milk a day at school. it would be delivered in these little milk bottle and left in a crate outside the classroom.
That was fine on cool days but during the summer the milk would have gone off by the time we were supposed to drink it at first break, but they'd make us drink it anyway.
Course, I wouldn't, so there would develop a battle of wills between me, sitting there with my untouched bottle, and the teacher, waiting for me to finish the bottle so that they could let me out into the playground and go off for their break.
Usually, the impasse ended when the teacher told me to 'put the bottle away when I'd finished', and as soon as they were out of the room I'd pour the milk down the sink and skedaddle.
I hate to think how much milk I wasted this way.
hm, look at that: I *can* join in the milk discussion... who'd've thought?
I would make some sort of witty comment about the travails of the Conservative Party and how they've managed to make a mockery of democracy by ousting their previously democratically chosen (by the party members) leader in favour of a frighteningly scary personification of evil undemocratically installed by Tory MPs (instead of, say, for example, the party members themselves) who will now lead the party to an unremarkable defeat (because who really wants Michael getawayfoulfiend Howard as Prime Minister?) at the next general election leaving us with another term in the clutches of the increasingly devoid of sanity Tony Blair the personification of smug-git-ery with an astonishingly tenuous grip on reality, but luckily for you I'm still reeling from the discovery of live weevils in the brand new packet of wholegrain rice I bought last week and am finding it somewhat difficult to put coherant and well-punctuated sentences together.
Sidebar's pretty though.
