Eames Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Coastguard wearing balaclavas. Seems fair enough. Probably weather-related Its hard not to admire the "couldn't give a **** approach" adopted here. Had the UK coastguard done similar there would be an enquiry and a bunch of bailiffs in waders trying to get em off the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dislike Greenpeace activists even more than the French do but I'd still probably side with them over the Russians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choffer Posted September 20, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted September 20, 2013 Meeting Roy Hodgson tonight. Whatever you might think of his ability to lead the national team, he is a thoroughly nice man. I hope you asked him about Gabby's omission! I did. He was suitably non-committal (I did make reference to his Ferdinand gaffe) but did say that Gabby was in his thoughts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Once worked at Lidl's head office in Wimbledon over the winter months when I was doing shows. They are really very fussy about what goes on to the shelves. There's a kitchen there, they systematically compare their rivals food against their own. If the Lidl version is thought to be inferior, it's pulled from the stores. I've no problem with shopping at Lidl and Aldi (similar set up) having seen how they operate, despite being cheap they give a monkey's. Unlike Tesco and Sainsbury's whose products have taken a serious dive in quality, 'Finest' my arse. Had a client over from Germany today and she insists the best juice on the market is lidl's own brand ... Taking into account she works for another well known brand that is a competitor , it is an interesting statement and maybe an indication that lidl's stuff is as you mention orange juice and apple juice are both excellent and a good price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
