Has anybody ever burned the roof of their mouth? did it a few days ago on extremely hot coffee. Since then everything I've eaten that isn't the consistency of baby food feels like I'm chewing broken glass - crisps being a particularly exquisite torture. It hurts and yes I'm definitely looking for sympathy.

Friend of mines dad tried to set a few eating world records.
One was for eating them cream crackers, but eating them dry, give it a go, it's not easy as your mouth dries up.
But another was for eating packets of crisps, his mouth ended up with a few cuts and he had to stop before his belly was even full

Came across an old film on Youtube. It was called 'Waterfront' and was about Liverpool in 1950. (made in 1950). I watched it for 20 minutes or so, waiting to hear a Liverpool accent. It was about a very poor family whose husband/father went off to sea and didn't come back. There was a Welsh accent, an Irish accent and several Ccckney accents but most accents, including the two daughter's in the very poor family, were pure 'BBC english'. Sign of the times.

I had something I wanted to talk about the other day but couldn't find a useful thread. I don't remember what it was, but it'll come to me.

Has anyone ever been tempted to submit a Mills & Boon novel for the lolz?

I'm tempted to write a masterpiece while bored at work. I'll base the hero on a random member of our squad and the heroine will be whichever woman turns up in the first pornhub video when that site loads up.

Couple of conflicts.

MONEY!
