Have you tried chicken and sweetcorn? For some reason my system does not digest sweetcorn, like the chicken and noodle though |

Presenters who spoil the programme....
I agree with this viewer:
Does anyone else watch this programme, BBC 1 at 10am in the morning? I do, for my sins, and although I really like the programme idea, the narrator is absolutely dire. The programme is about antiques and two experts compete with each other to buy and sell on at a profit for charity. Quite a serious subject in the general scheme of things, I think you'll agree.
Why then, does the BBC think that they need to direct the programme at 5-10 year olds? The narrator is Stephen Taylor Woodrow and I reckon he would have a wonderful career on CBeebies! His inane, pointless drivel is delivered in toddler speak and I've yet to meet a toddler who is interested in antiques! He calls all the experts by stupid nicknames and just repeats himself over and over again. What was the producer/director thinking? This is such a typical example of TV being "dumbed down" and it's painful!
I know, I know, I don't need to watch it but I'm interested in antiques and I do like most of the experts, having watched them for years on other antiques programmes. I never watch it live so I can whizz past the idiotic commentary.
Anyone agree with me?

He just sounds like he's watching TV and chuntering along to himself. (I have no interest in antiques, and it's really just something to settle down with after tea if we feel like it.) |

Tim's a treasure, much liked in this household. I can stick that plonker on Flog It, who treats everyone like kindergarten pupils. |

Agree, with both statements.
Also Jeremy Vine on Eggheads or the Real Egg as he is known (by himself)

I baked 4 dozen mince pies today. No doubt they will go within days. They always do, friends and family prefer home made
to the supermarket ones. Trouble is, I end up covered in flour and it takes ages to clean up when I'm finished.

Christmas Eve in Bordeaux, our Swiss/Italian D-in-L did us raclette. Have you ever tried it?

I think we develop immunities to anything which is contained in foodstuff we eat and drink. When my oldest grandson was born he eventually progressed from mothers milk to formula milk products which resulted in a violent reaction. He looked like a boiled lobster Rushed into A&E the first question from the paediatrician consultant was about feeding, and as soon as he knew about the transition to formula he ordered an instant stop and change to soya milk. He explained that there were so many substances being pumped into cows to increase production, their milk was being affected. Asked if he would need to drink soya milk for ever he replied no because his body would develop a natural immunity in a year or so, and this was affecting most new borns. He was right, 24 years on you would never know that this strapping young man once looked so poorly, and who now eats everything put before him |
