It's on the supermarket shelf next to the short minutes :w00t:

I'm looking forward to Sunday now, although Trig to be honest I think I prefer a plague of locusts to a gel, I never can stomach gels, whereas you can't beat a locust butty!! Sort if for us, there's a good chap :o)

Knowing Hebden Bridge there'll definitely be someone selling organic locusts - will nip down later

What makes you think the first lady will appreciate a ruined church as a trophy?

Especially if it's horizontal?
