So we have a "what bugs me" thread and "I really hate thread".

We need a lurve thread.

So I'll start.


A sloe G&T on a very warm Sunday night, knowing I have Monday off :).

    Does the freezing cold ride make it worth it?

    Can do without baths.

    Yes.

    You know you'll be having a steaming hot bath when you get home - it spurs you on.

    I know I seem to be the only brit that likes Hersheys chocolate, but to be honest I find the european stuff too sweet and hypo educing for my tastes. Hershey just suits my taste more, even better seeing as there is a store in Exeter which sells it!
