    Perhaps we should start some extreme UK topics for discussion...... cricket, Morris dancing, changing the guard at Buckingham palace, the tradition of afternoon tea ( low cal version), Sunday roasts, pubs, Eisteddfords, Highland Games????
    You mean along the lines of...

    my husband has suddenly taken up Morris Dancing. Now he spends every waking moment sewing bells to his trousers and hitting sticks together. Should I divorce him and move to Wales taking the chinchillas with me?

    or

    I used to love taking afternoon tea, but want to know if there's a low-carb alternative to scones and non-dairy clotted cream to go with my sugar-free, organic strawberry jam? How thin should I slice my cucumber and do you have a bread-free substitute for the sandwiches?

    :happy: :laugh: :wink:

    hahahahahahahahahaha! Kyle, you can tell you read the main forums!!

    Following on from a theme above, I'm in a skittles team, and quite regularly handle my friend Dave's balls. They were quite rough until recently, but another friend tended to them and they are now wonderfully smooth and shiny.

    Do you think this is a healthy activity for a middle-aged, over-weight woman? :)
    oh it's perfectly healthy as long as you remember to drink 8 pints of water a day :drinker:

    If you're going to score you certainly need smooth & shiny balls.

    I only ever look here, never even look at "main" forums as I like keeping things local...

    But, it is very quiet on here.....
