I'm surprised Havak hasn't popped up yet.

That's odd. In principle, it should have more flavour than those things pumped full of hormones.

I agree it's weird , but I and most of my chef friends have found that a medium priced., limited run,battery fed chicken is more tasty (EDIT Tastier, oh god I am stupid) over here.
Maybe it's because frozen chicken is water-injected ****e here and that the major supermarkets have pushed the price down so low that any free ranger cannot compete that causes it. I really do not know, but, swear to god, it's true that the free range chickens have a tendancy to be a bit tougher over here than the mediumpriced batteries and have less flavour.
Ethically I really do wish it was not true and flavour wise I also wish the same.

I suspect Havak to be a "get up early and go to bed early" man until the week end is coming and he is transmogriphying into a beer drinker partying at the very first occasion.

Of course, the fact he does not have a decent internet connection at home is by no mean a valid excuse. It seems that only the people having a job have the time to post all day long on the Internet.

Curious...

****e, this relates to a rugby idea.
The idea is this .
The players who play for the island teams are a pile of bollocks compared to those who grow up in the NZ area.
Aaahhhhhhhhhhh.................

That's not true the island's are NZ.

O.K Dally would be ****e if he was Italian.

And he is, and he's not, so then what?

It's almost 2am over there. He's tucked up dreaming of J****.

...J**** lifting the RWC trophy more exactly though I would suspect him to dream he is wearing a white jersey with a rose and lifting it himself.

Here, even the better supermarkets are starting to carry organic, free range birds. Though obviously they're outnumbered by the hormone-ridden stuff. I think it's a trickledown from the plethora of chefs on TV. The general public is becoming better educated.

Which isn't to say that all organic, free-range stuff is fabulous. There's more to it than just letting the buggers wander. The best of its type here is magnificent. And very expensive. In fact, the average quality stuff probably isn't a lot better than the traditional.

I was thinking he was dreaming of J**** in a slightly different context, but you may be right.

I dream of Jenie only when J**** scares the living ****e outta me.

Edit .. And I dream of a day wheeeeen my bicardi makes the button's leeeeeeeess sticky.

You are so right in that the public is better educated and that T.V chefs play a major role in that education.

Me, I , and, this may be totally unfair, wish they started a bit lower.

The best program on British T.V at the moment is " Jamie's Kitchen"

It is all about a London chef who is half-famous and his attempts to turn underprivilaged guys (and girls) into high class chefs.

It is the funniest and truest programme you will ever see.

On a completely different toppic I have seen a TV reporting about Dublin and I have heard Mollie Malone sang by an old Irishman. I am eager to welcome an Irish team again in Toulouse at the Stade Ernest Wallon and hear the crowd sing this beautiful song.

And I wish that one day that this may come true for you,.

Oh and annoy the old bugger by asking him to play " The Wild Rover" for me, will you, it's very funny when a Frenchman asks.

It ran here. I missed it. I think they're about to show a sequel.

I read somewhere that England is lining up a cash cow clash with New Zealand after the World Cup. It would be between an England XV and the New Zealand Barbarians, with an aim to repeat (in all but name) this November's potential World Cup final.

Hadn't heard anything about it but it does sound like a good idea, particularly as a rematch if the WC were to come down to an NZ-England final.
