You are of course perfectly correct, serves me right for trying to be clever!!!!!!, in my defence look what time I posted.....should've gone to bed after all Ah, you can't fool us - you're actually from an alternate universe where water boils at a different temperature. This is very exciting for the forum as there may be an infinite number of you - and me - out there, reading all the posts. I wonder why we don't get an infinite number of replies though? Guess they're all lurkers☺ You've sussed me out feeble earthling, but it is too late we are amassing on the dark side of the moon listening to some strange sounds by Pink Floyd while we ready ourselves and will be wiping you all out very soon.......(imagine evil laughter now) ps You thought this picture was my avantar, but I decided use a real one, this is the back of my head.... the front is exactly the same except I'm nurturing a moustache for Movember Some other alien cultures think we are all two faced, and we are, but only in appearance

This is my front face, do you like moustache? I started growing it yesterday, our facial hair always grows upwards because it has a mind of it's own and will eventually knit itself into the hair on top, and you think your female gender have bad hair days! I prefer my back face, or my ediskcab as we call it. and will change the picture back tomorrow. Please excuse the eyes they normally the same as the front set, but I have been up all night
Yes, we have 4 arms which is handy if you have an itch in the centre of your back.
I suppose you want to know where we come from, well some think from Mars, others from Venus. Neither are correct as we all have both male and female genitalia.

Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, rein back on the caffeine before you self combust - or maybe that's also normal behaviour in your neck of the woods? How many times can you burst into flames before there's nothing left?

It's because I had what you earthlings call a lie in yesterday......I had a whole 3 of your earthly minutes which I know is really naughty of me. As for the caffeine it is our only sorce of nourishment and the whole purpose of invasion. Ok I'm not really an alien, just taking my mind of my beloved Brera having it's brakes sorted due to an imbalance and having a bit of fun while I wait......now what am I gonna do

Add a touch of magic to your cold by placing glitter in your mouth before you sneeze. Some say you can't polish a t*rd.....but you could sneeze on it, another win, win situation

Give your birdcage that 'thatched cottage' look by tying Shredded Wheats on to the top of the cage Now there is a problem if the cage has got live inhabitants. You could always paint some Brillo pads

You really are on speed, aren't you? No, but I have tried it once. The reason for my nickname is because when in my 40's I used to go out clubbing with my then girl friend and her daughter. We used to go on Thursdays because a) it was student night (a £1 a pint) and b) her daughter knew all the bouncers, so not only did we get in free, we didn't have to Q & had access to the VIP area. Now the name, being an old funker, I was able to show the youngsters how to freestylie, this required a lot of space which with cunning jabs with elbows was soon obtained. The daughter said you dance like Skippy on speed (not meant mockingly), which amused me and have used it ever since. Would love to go dancing again, but all the people my age want to do is dance to (excuse me while I vommit) Abba and all the other same old boring stuff week in week out. I will dance to anything that hits the spot. The old London saying was "If it moves Funk it" The 2nd part wasn't used on the radio ie "If it doesn't move, ain't worth a F*ck! says it all. If you are open minded to music I listed a lot different types music in the chilled music thread early this morning, you must hear the last track. Being an ex London based part time DJ in the late 70's & 80's I have a huge vinyl collection. Since the coming of Oohtube I've been like a kid in a sweetshop!

Save money on expensive pet carriers.If you need to take your cat to the vets,simply tie its tail to one of its back legs to make an excellent carry handle. Wasn't there a corner for naughty boys somewhere on this forum? You better give me directions if you find out where

OK, here's a genuine one. Get double loyalty points on all your shopping. At the Tesco checkout present your Clubcard; you get Tesco points. Then pay with your M & S credit card; you get M & S points as well! (Other loyalty cards / credit cards are available) Beggar the points at Tesco. I suggest you checkout www.mysupermarket.co.uk/ if you register you can add your weekly shop to a basket and the totals of most of the major players is listed as you go. However, I tend to bulk buy genuine offers that I actually want, so I might go to Asda one week, Tesco the next, etc. I have a Tesco credit card which used give points on every £2 on it outside the T group, this changed to £8 recently, now they have been in trouble for the past 12 months, is the writing on the wall for them, 'cos they are certainly not gonna win back custom like that. I find that the stuff I buy is generally cheaper at Asda. I'm rather partial to extra mature cheddar, there own brand is really tasty and as for price it is a LOT cheaper than Tesco equiv. Hit the link above and check it for youself. Also Tesco have appeared to have stopped sending money off and double points of coupons

Got a head ache, don't take Anadin 'Cos they themselves used to say "Nothing acts faster than Anadin"
Don't use Tesco's "Shop & Drop" service 'cos you'll only have yourself to blame if all your eggs, biscuits etc are broken and you can't complain 'cos all their vans have huge warnings on them.

As Chairman of The Board sang in the 70's - "I'm on my way to a better place" Promise me you won't lock the wardrobe

Looks interesting, but recently retired and shopping for 2 now, so mostly just spending a few quid each day. Are these the guys who used to do the price-comparison TV ads for Asda?

Looks interesting, but recently retired and shopping for 2 now, so mostly just spending a few quid each day. Are these the guys who used to do the price-comparison TV ads for Asda? I don't think so, I always thought Asda were just blowing there own trumpet. I shop for 1 so probably spend less than you, but it is worth looking at. If you click on a particular item it shows all the current prices for that item. I actually made a spreadsheet of all the items I use and eat on a regular basis. In order low to high it went Iceland, Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury. However, Icelands range is very limited and if you are a heavy user of Saffron, Sainsbury was 50% cheaper coming in @£2500/kg And I didn't even look at Aldi because they have weird brands which you can't really compare What I did was make a shopping list of everything I buy on a regular basis Stuck in the prices and then colourcoded the cells background of each item in each shop, you could see clearly Iceland was a no brainer, out of the 20 or so items I could buy there all bar 2 were the cheapest, those being Basmati rice and my "fix" Nescafe. The other thing they have on the above website is a page with all weekly offers. So if you bulk buy long shelf life items its better than money in invested. It sounds as if I spend my whole life shopping, but I don't I always go about 6am, the advantages are you get the pick of the fresh stuff it also hasn't been touched by everybody and I hate the smell of kids and screaming nappies. So I can be in and out in less than half an hour. Another tip is use a bag as a glove to handle unwrapped items and always wash your hands before unpacking, as the trolley handles can be just as bad as free bar nibbles in a pub for germs. ps you don't even have to register to use the website, only if you want to add to the basket to get list totals for each shop
