    I wouldn't be able to do that, I think it'd turn me vegetarian :(

    I'd be okay with it if I could be assured it would be killed with a knife and not boiled alive.

    Was going to add the proviso that regional food might be better....though I don't eat meat from an animal without a spine.

    They did say they killed them before cooking them but I didn't stick around to watch.

    First time to Crete, I went with a few fairly well travelled friends. One of them spent all the time he could trying to find a place where they cooked English roast dinners. I was also truly appalled at his behaviour to waiters, etc. Couldn't believe that's what he'd learned on his wanderings. Never again.

    And the local food and wine was astonishingly good too.

    Red flag for a big accident at the start of the F1 race at Silverstone. Kimi Raikkonen may have suffered an ankle injury.

    Had fish and chips once in America and it wasn't nice. They do have loads of nice restaurants and fast food chains, you can see why loads of Americans are overweight.

    It always baffles me when I've seen English families in Spain in English pubs, you can do that at home! And people in the UK moan about immigrants for not integrating!

    Hamilton wins the British Grand Prix! Not a Lewis fan, but a British win at Silverstone is always special.

    Yes, fair play to him, he deserved a bit of luck. Great drive from Bottas, and the Vettel/Alonso fight was fantastic.

    I see Marquez has won 8 in a row now TSS.......

    Yes, I know. Mind you, whoever wins, motorcycle racing is inherently more exciting than car racing, but don't let that stop you trying to hype up F1. I'm still not bothering to tune in though. F1 owes me too much boredom time back. :)

    The people that moan about immigration are usually the ones who then emigrate to Benalmadena or somewhere, because there are too many foreigners over here.
