The Panda liquorice from Finland is probably the single greatest confectionery I have ever encountered. Followed by the soft Australian liquorice.

I've always advocated fighting fire with fire when it comes to earworms. Nothing can defeat House of Fun by Madness

That's weird because I recognise those, but as Swizzel's Fizzers, and to those of us in the UK Smarties are a completely different sweet made of chocolate in a hard sugar shell

On the one hand, my brother will also not touch cheese of any kind, so I don't disbelieve it for that reason.

But on the other, I do find myself thinking "Surely not all cheese". I mean desserts containing ricotta and mascarpone are very different from a piece of Double Gloucester

Usually it implies someone went to an outrageously expensive but prestigious public school (NB in the UK a "public school" is rather confusingly a type of private school, and distinct from a state school), and probably then to Oxbridge, and speaks with the accent known as Received Pronunciation

"Posh" basically just means upper class. It's purportedly from when people with more money who were going to India by ship in the 19th century would pay more for tickets for "Port Out, Starboard Home" to stay out of the sun as far as possible in the tropics

I can't say I'm a big fan either, but I can eat a lot of vegetables in curries I wouldn't touch any other way.

Jami Oliver did a recipe for scruffy aubergine lasagne in his Veg cookbook and if you don't mind aubergine in moussaka you might find it OK in that too since the texture is similar

Unfortunately people never seem to call out the most atrocious lies out of Rees Mogg's mouth, seemingly largely because he's posh

I don't drive or have a passport so my only real option was to obtain a postal vote. Sent it over a week ago and still not heard back. Ironically given justification given for the requirement for photo ID was to prevent voter personation, it would have been laughably easy to get my mum's postal vote
