Re: General Chat
It wasn't, the new one is very well acted but lacks the honesty and genius of the original.

Well Jill & I still believe the new series is class, moving & a brilliantly acted series in our opinion.
Can't be that bad, as you once commented viewtopic.php?p=808713#p808713

Re: General Chat
Oh I know, I liked it to start with... but went off it and haven't seen past series one. It never drew you in like the original did. I really like a lot of series to start, like music, but they often don't hold appeal past a certain point1964white wrote: ↑Sat Dec 24, 2022 11:18 am Well Jill & I still believe the new series is class, moving & a brilliantly acted series in our opinion.

The new series is much better acted and obviously with modern technology, looks better. But it lacks empathy, honesty and character.

Re: General Chat
With the Next Manager thread veering off into a discussion of crisps, it's probably time to bump this.
So, haggis day, a couple of days late. One of my favourite meals.

Re: General Chat
Last night's Jalapeño and Dill crisps were distinctly lemony. Would probably really like Welsh rabbit flavour.

Re: General Chat
Unfortunately, the beardy hipster isn't drinking real ale these days. Had one try to get me to sample his pale citrus concoction (no, that isn't a euphemism) last night, and never got past the smell. Horrible stuff.
We were on the Burton Bridge Old Expensive, as featured with Dougal the Dog in the pics thread.

Re: General Chat
Currently a big fan of Tesco (other supermarkets are available) Roast Beef and Horseradish crisps. Proper horseradish hit to them and a strong beef flavour. A nod also to Marmite Cashews, but they are a rip-off (more air than nuts in the bag)!

Re: General Chat
Big fan of marmite and twiglets, but that's never translated to other applications.
Re: General Chat
Always go for these, when available:

Re: General Chat
Don't seem to see them as commonly in pubs lately. Wonder if they're swept up in the Great Crisp Shortage, which surely presages the End of Days.YorkshireSquare wrote: ↑Fri Jan 27, 2023 9:29 am Was just thinking the other day, it's absolutely ages since I had Twiglets!

Re: General Chat
This is the time to grab some twiglets, supermarket shelves are full of them discounted after Christmas. I snared a few tubs last week. A dangerous drinking snack, they don't half make you thirsty!!

Re: General Chat
Yes they go very well with a pint or three. We were on leftover Christmas beer last night.
