rant
Lindt... world's best choccies?... you are JOKING!!!!! That stuff you have to be half-cut to like, and totally p***ed to 'appreciate'! You have been zombied by the hype! there is no such thing as 'the world's best choccie' - everyone has their own preferences in terms of cocoa content, sugar/milk content, etc.... but in terms of the flavour (despite a LOT of failings in other departments), Cadbury's still has a lead. I find the Swiss-type choccy to have a very floury mouth-feel, and a fairly insipid after-taste. Bitter or dry I can understand, but insipid? (cocoa is on of the world's most bitter substances, after all!) Yes, Cadbury's is oversweet, and lacking in bite (unless you talk about Bourneville....)but at least it tastes of Cocoa!.... end rant -- Noel Paton CrashFixPC Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk "Raymond Ellis Bextor" wrote in message ...

Goodness!! I didn't expect such a rant from such a skinny young lad,
LOL!! Perhaps you need to have a bunny or two to sweeten you up.....(and you can figure this one out for yourself, snicker). Actually, there was a Canadian chocolate company that was better than any you can name......unfortunately they either folded or got *taken over by a US company*. That is also a euphemism for *buy it and destroy it*. Oops.....Ron calling to say my supper is superbly cooked and on the table....I have taught him well, lol.

That is also a euphemism for *buy it and destroy it*. No need to be radical about it, because no chocolate of today is what it used to be, but Lindt is still fairly good and should be ranking in the top three. How exactly does it work when a US firm 'takes over' a Canadian company? I thought we had our own problems in being taken over by the Chinese and a lot of well known others.

Cadburys tastes like the gustatory realization of the smell that permeates the a certain section of the M4. Ah! The Cippenham stench! Almost as bad as the Bridgewater pong (from the old British Cellophane factory). Not sure if I've been there. I was thinking it was Bridgenorth, but I could be wrong. Wherever it was, I passed through it once, heading for Wolverhampton iirc (another hole - but then Norton was already dead by then - indeed, NVT was dead by then). I remember something about it that made me never want to be there again! Hook, in Hampshire, used to be nauseating - that was a sweet factory, about 100 yrds off the A30, in the centre of town, next to the train station. If you went through in a car, with the windows down and vents shut it was bearable. Go through on a bike and it was all you could do not to vomit. Clearly the residents of Hook didn't notice a thing! Though when I was last there, in the early nineties, the factory was no longer there and there was a 24-hr Tesco just a short distance further along. I wonder if the Hookites were going there and gagging on the *absense* of concentrated cocoa stench? Then, of course, following the general direction to London - at least if you got onto the M3 - you come to Chertsey. That still *does* smell like Cippenham. My dad had a name for the site that sounded like a colloquialism, consisting of 'Chertsey', 'Farm', and the magic ingredient.

Hey REB....got 2 Lindt bunnies sitting on the table waiting for us. The Easter Bunny makes early drop offs for old folks (G) Sorry to hear about your Mum....but glad she is OK. Ron is doing relatively well, other than looking like Methusalah!! He grew a beard years ago. Can't remember if he had it in England. Perhaps he *got* it in England? That's one product we still make to last. He could come back to get it serviced, probably. Poor Casey had some medical problems too. What I thought was a cataract turned out to be glaucoma and he lost the sight in one eye. He is on daily eye drops now and bitches every day when I put them in. One good thing.....he can't see them coming so doesn't blink and avoid them, lol. Just one eye, which the vet says is quite unusual. So the ol' medical whatsit that I believe you can actually acquire legally in Toronto (?) no good for cats? Or is that in the drops? How's Rosie doing?? Or is that spelled "Rosey"?? Right first time. She's fine! Back when I used to grow the you-know-what (and would again if I could, here - if only so's the British Govt. could shove it up their...) she used to jump up and chew the lower leaves. Thing is, she does it with other houseplants too (e.g. Rose, Ficus). She only chews the drying, yellowing leaves. So I don't know what she gets from that. Potassium? Think he'd like another mouse? Not that I have any old socks anymore. But I expect Canadian Customs need something to do? Shane Mmmmmm, love hot cross buns and wish they would make them at other times of the year.

Hey Figgs, What I say - these days - is give up on free AV for 9x. Go for the best deal on a quality paid option. For instance, NOD32. I got a 2 year license for 3 machines and they don't have to be at the same location. So three users can get NOD32 for two years for not so very much, particularly if split three ways. IIRC they do three year deals also. And v2.7 - that even runs on Win 95 still - remains available. I daresay other companies have vaguely similar deals. Of course, for those afraid they could die after only getting one year's use out of it, it is a dilemma! But it gets to the point where if there are no circumstances in which a user will consider paying for AV software, they might as well not use any and I figure that time is just about reached with Win Me.

Personally, I would keep the version of Avast that you have and let it update the definitions. But I will see what the rest say.

I need a new free anti-virus program to work with my beloved WinMe, and Rising Anti-virus Free and Avast seem to be the only ones around. Avast stops support for WinMe at the end of this year, leaving Rising as my best bet. Anyone with experience with Rising Free? Good? Bad? |

Rising Anti-Virus Free query
I didn't bother with Hot Cross Buns this year but I did get a Warburtons Hot
Cross Loaf, had a couple of slices toasted on Saturday and loved it g Certainly wouldn't go out buying Lindt Bunnies, they cost a fortune and you're only paying for the name cheaper to go and buy a bar of chocolate, I like dark chocolate, although I do like milk chocolate when it's a bar of Cadburys Whole Nut or Fruit and Nut g -- Joan Archer http://www.freewebs.com/crossstitcher http://lachsoft.com/photogallery "Heather" wrote in message ... Hey REB....got 2 Lindt bunnies sitting on the table waiting for us. The Easter Bunny makes early drop offs for old folks (G) Mmmmmm, love hot cross buns and wish they would make them at other times of the year. Cheers.....Casey's Mom. |
