    Ah ok, got you. Weirdly enough, people in Scotland often day "sangwich" when trying to say sandwich when they are not calling it a piece.

    Waking up to a Conservative government every morning doesn’t do much for the soul either tbh.

    It was, but Callaghan still didn't say it. Didn't you read my "fun fact" before?

    James Callaghan, he was Labour Prime Minister in the late 70s. He had been away to some economic forum in the Guadeloupe while rubbish wasn't being collected and bodies not being buried, think known as the Winter of Discontent. Anyway, he came back looking tanned and he was meant to have said, "Crisis? What crisis?" He didn't say it though, just that a paper ran with that headline. He did say something similar though. Anyway, Maggie kicked his hole at the next election thankfully.

    Panic stations at the ready. Ocado have just emailed me to let me know the order is on the way and there was no orange juice with bits in it and they've substituted it for the smooth orange juice. I'm mortified. The country is ****ed. Whoever voted for this in 2016 is a ****. **** you!
