Nothing wrong with that is there? After all many people, some of them almost normal, suffer from peanut allergies and, companies are now trying their damdest to help such folk out.
Obviously it is nothing to do with the million pound lawsuits if they don’t. It is all out of the kindness of their hearts, bless them.
However, this warning was on the back of a bag of peanuts... I ask you. I almost said “Is it me?” out loud although I don’t want to sound like that foppish Irish fella on the radio who, I believe died about 20 years ago, but BBC has not found a way to tell his adoring public of the fact for fear of a national crisis in the morning.
Anyway, yes... this packet of peanuts may contain nuts. I hear in America that mirrors have signs on saying things that appear here may actually be behind you - you stupid American idiot.
Australia got the best deal in taking the convicts. Today we are all wrapped up in cotton wool and our children are not allowed to do anything that, in my salad days, I would have considered normal healthy excercise.
Some people call it a nanny state or a cotton wool culture, I call it a complete waste of time... Mind you, in the olden days, when evertyhing was in black and white, tnings were different. Mars bars were good for you as they helped you to Work, Rest and Play - and not rot your teeth as we found out later. And Guinness and Mackesons stout was recommended for pregnant women.
IT IS not often that one gets dragged into enemy teritory. Normally there has to be the promise of a pint involved to lure me across the border. But not at the weekend. Oh no. Madam had a bee in her bonnet which just could not be dislodged and I was designated as the official driver for her shopping trip to Hinckley. Joy of joys. Well, I have to say I was not impressed. As you know, dear readers, one takes an sour line with the abomnible activity known as shopping. But Hinckley’s town centre was terrible. Perhaps Nuneaton is not that bad after all.
Anyway, this week’s target of ire, for we can’t finish the column without having a go at somebody, is vegetarians. What is the point of them, I ask you? Not sure where they come in the grand scheme of things, possibly below cat lovers but above teetotallers. But what irks me most about these people is that many of them proclaim to not be able to eat God’s creatures because it is a sin, and yet eat fish. Words fail me on this one. And many of these people also feed their poor defenceless pets vegetarian food as well. I ask you, is it me? Beam me up Scotty.
