Re: Martin Clunes has gone down in my estimation

Re: Martin Clunes has gone down in my estimation

... to a supermarket I very rarely use the biking bays. I tend to park right next to the building, against a wall, out of the way. Less chance of it being knocked over. In cities though it's a different matter. Parking spaces for bikes are very limited. Parking a car in a bike bay is taking the piss.

Re: What are you eating ??

... is if the fat content per serving is less than 5 grams you can market the product as low fat. Seems mental I know but I remember the discussion being in the news. Weirdly if you say your 1 pound block of lard (454g) has a 100 servings you can call your lard a low fat product. Fi^ked up I know :?
